Tesla Option Credit is Back: $1K-$2K Discounts on Model 3 & Y Inventory!
Hey everyone, DennisCW here! If you're in the market for a Tesla, you've got to act fast—the Tesla option credit is back, and it's better than ever. Tesla rolled this out as recently as last night, offering $1,000 to $2,000 discounts across limited inventory on Model 3 and Model Y vehicles. This is a huge upgrade from the previous version just a couple of months ago. Let me break it down for you.
Why This Option Credit is a Game-Changer
Previously, the option credit was lease-only. Now? It's available for cash, finance, OR lease. That means savings no matter how you buy:
- Free upgrades on paint, wheels, exterior color, or interior—up to $2,000 value.
- Applies to limited inventory (while supplies last), so these deals could vanish anytime.
Head over to Tesla's inventory page right now to spot these. You'll see discounts popping up everywhere!
Pro Tip: Maximize with Leasing
The best strategy is still leasing. Snag the $6,500 lease incentive, then buy it out at the end. It requires good credit and outside financing, but it's worth the extra savings. If that's too much hassle, just grab the straight $2,000 discount.
Bonus Demo Discounts Heating Up
This option credit wave has sparked even bigger demo deals. Check this out:
- Model Y with $3,000 off and only 1,886 miles.
We'll dive deeper into the hottest ones in my next video—stay tuned!
Don't forget: Use my Tesla referral code for up to $1,000 more off. Click it, place a $250 deposit on inventory, and lock in your deal.
0% Financing on Base Model Y—First Time Ever!
Exciting news for budget buyers: 0% financing is now on the base Model Y (the $5,000 cheaper one without extras). It's the first time for the newer Model Y lineup.
Sure, it's the entry-level model (no sunshade?), but factor in the savings:
- $5,000 cheaper upfront.
- 0% vs. 1.99-2.99% financing could save you $7,000-$9,000 total.
Perfect for Tesla newbies. Which would you pick—the loaded higher-trim or this deal?
Sell Your Current Car for Max Value
Trading in? Skip Tesla's offer. Use Give Me the Vin—viewers have scored $3,000 more than Tesla trade-ins. Sell from home, easy peasy. Link in the description.
Protect Your Credit Before Financing
Before applying for that Tesla loan, protect your credit. Bank of America just had a data breach and waited a month to notify customers. Companies take 277 days on average to report—your info could be exposed.
That's why I use Aura (today's sponsor). It:
- Scans the dark web for your SSN, bank info, etc.
- Cuts spam calls.
- Removes your data from broker sites.
- Includes $5M identity theft insurance.
All in one app. Try it free for 14 days at aura.com/denniscw. Protect now—don't wait like turning on Sentry Mode after the damage.
What's Next for Tesla Inventory?
This came back just 4 days after they pulled it. Inventory charts show more Model 3s and Ys flooding in—could deals explode or dry up? Is this a buy, or hold for better?
