Tesla Model Y Performance Sold Out for 2025: Delivery Delays, Tax Credit Drama, and Must-Have Deals
Hey everyone, DennisCW here! If you're eyeing the Tesla Model Y Performance, I've got some big news—and it's not all smooth sailing. The entire lineup is completely sold out for 2025, across all colors and combinations. Is this a sign of massive demand, production hiccups, or both? Let's break it down.
Delivery Dates Pushed Back—Check Your App Now!
Many orders are getting bumped to January, February, or even March 2026. If your delivery has shifted, head to your Tesla app and double-check those date ranges. New orders? Expect January to February 2026 timelines.
What's your estimated delivery date (EDD)? Drop it in the comments below, along with your state and color combo. Are you in a high-demand area like California or Texas? Let's crowdsource this!
The $7,500 Federal Tax Credit Headache
The real kicker? The $7,500 federal EV tax credit. Rumors are swirling:
- Some say it won't be point-of-sale for 2026 deliveries—you'd have to itemize on taxes.
- Others think it'll be a 2027 tax filing wait. That's a long time to hold out for $7,500!
Poll time: If your delivery slips into next year and you miss the point-of-sale credit, will you cancel, delay, or skip delivery altogether? Tesla might face inventory headaches if buyers bail. Sound off below!
Other Model Y Variants: Plenty of Inventory and Deals
Not chasing Performance? Good news—the Premium, Rear-Wheel Drive, and All-Wheel Drive models have solid inventory and demo discounts available. Inventory's been a bit stagnant (up, then down—maybe repricing?), but deals are flowing.
- 1.99% financing ends December 4th—lock it in ASAP!
- Lease incentives: $6,500 + option credits, no end date. This could stick around through December.
Pro tip: Use my Tesla referral code (link in the description of my video) for up to $1,000 off. Click it first, then shop Tesla's site for inventory or demos.
Will 1.99% get extended past Dec 4th? Maybe to Dec 15th, or even 0%? Watch for announcements around Dec 5th. What do you think—share your predictions!
Tesla Accessories: Don't Drive Without These Must-Haves
Your new Model Y comes with zero accessories—no phone mount, no center console. We've got you covered with our partner Joah (shoutout for sponsoring!).

Congrats to Sawyer, who just snagged a Model Y Performance media demo (Quicksilver with black interior) for 7 days. Tesla's leaning into media loaners—smart move!
Final Thoughts
The Model Y Performance frenzy shows Tesla's still got that hype, but delays and tax credit uncertainty could shake things up. Whether you're financing at 1.99%, leasing, or grabbing inventory, act fast.
