Tesla Incentives Update for October 2024: Deals on Models and Cybertruck

Hey everyone, DennisCW here! If you've been eyeing a Tesla but missed out on that juicy $7,500 federal tax credit, don't worry—I've got you covered with the latest incentives for October 2024. In my recent video, I broke down all the current deals, from lease credits to financing perks, and even some inventory surprises. Whether you're shopping for a Model 3, Model Y, Cybertruck, or beyond, let's dive into what's available right now and why Q4 could be the perfect time to buy.

Missing the $7,500 Tax Credit? There's Still Hope

First off, if you're one of those folks who didn't snag the $7,500 federal tax credit before it phased out for certain models, hit me up on Instagram or via email. There might still be a way to make it work—I've helped plenty of viewers navigate this. But for everyone else ready to place an order, Tesla's rolling out some solid incentives to keep things exciting.

One thing that's caught my eye: Tesla's inventory is suddenly booming. After being sold out for weeks at the end of Q3, there are now plenty of Model Ys and other models sitting in stock. This could signal bigger promotions on the horizon, especially as we head deeper into Q4—historically the best time to score a Tesla deal.

Key Incentives for October 2024

Let's break down the highlights. These can change at any time, so act fast if something catches your eye!

Lease Incentives: Up to $6,500 Off

• Model 3, Model Y, and Cybertruck: Tesla's offering a $6,500 lease credit on these models. This is huge, especially for Cybertruck buyers who might have exceeded income limits for the tax credit.
• Pro tip: If you're leasing but plan to buy out immediately, you could still pocket around $5,000 of that credit. Check out my previous video for the full how-to.

Discounts and Perks

• America's Heroes Discount: Now $500 (down from $1,000), but still easy to qualify for if you're military, a teacher, first responder, or student.
• Full Self-Driving (FSD) Trial: One month free to test it out.
• FSD Transfer: Free transfers if you're upgrading.
• Premium Connectivity: One month free for new owners.

Financing Deals

• Model 3: 2.99% APR for up to 60 months.
• Model Y: 3.99% APR for up to 60 months.
• Cybertruck: An incredible 2.49% APR financing, plus free 20-inch wheel upgrades if leasing.

Lux Package and More

• Cybertruck, Model S, and Model X come with the Lux Package, which includes free Supercharging and a year of Premium Connectivity. I'll be deep-diving into the Lux Package's value in an upcoming video—stay tuned!

These incentives are designed to move inventory, and with Q3 deliveries spilling over into Q4, I expect things to heat up even more after the earnings call, possibly in November.

Tesla News Roundup

• Cybertruck Deliveries: Spotted a fleet heading to xAI offices, and earlier ones to SpaceX. Looks like Tesla's internal teams are getting their hands on them—could this be a clever way to boost numbers?
• Model Y and Model 3 Transports: Tons of these are hitting the roads, especially from California to Vegas. If you're waiting on the standard range versions, they're starting to appear in showrooms in places like Florida and Texas. DM me if you've spotted one—I'd love to check it out!

Maximize Your Savings: Trade-In Tips

Want the biggest discount? Don't forget about trading in your current vehicle. I've partnered with GiveMeTheVin.com to help you get top dollar—right from home. Viewers have scored up to $3,000 more than Tesla's offers. Link in the description—definitely worth a shot!

Protect Your Credit Before Financing

If you're financing your Tesla, safeguard your credit first. With recent breaches like Bank of America's (where they waited a month to notify customers), your info could be at risk. That's why I use Aura, our sponsor. It scans the dark web, reduces spam calls, removes your data from broker sites, and includes $5 million in identity theft insurance—all in one app. Try it free for 14 days at aura.com/denniscw (link below). Don't wait—protect yourself before applying!

Final Thoughts: Buy Now or Wait?

Q4 is shaping up to be strong for Tesla buyers, with carryover from Q3 and potential new promos. Are you jumping on these deals ASAP, or holding out for more? Drop your thoughts in the comments—what incentives are you most excited about? If you're stalling, remember: Tesla often ramps up offers toward quarter-end.
