That's partly why the 2023 Chevy Bolt felt like a good one to go in on.

26,500 MSRP

And yeah you get screwed on taxes and all the other little add ons, but I'm still only paying a bit over 30k tomorrow.

Then I'll apply to get 2000-7500 rebate from California
And another 3000 from the central valley rebate

And then my federal taxes will be reduced for a few years with the 7500 tax credit

So I won't get it all back directly, but the long term financial impact will end up being less than 20k

Oh, hmm. That's not bad at all. I don't live in California, so I can't claim those rebates, but even 30k - 7.5 sounds not all that bad if I really were on the market for a new vehicle today.

And yeah, tax credits for making these moves are great. (For the consumer, at least.) They're bringing the cost of the solar install from a 25k estimate up front to more like 18.
