It's so shady that their advertised price includes some hypothetical "potential gas savings", and the actual price is behind a tiny "learn more" link.

The real price is at the bottom of the page without having to click through, but yes, it's still really shady. No other car OEM does this.

Interesting to point out that the $35k is the full price, which goes down when additional discounts are applied. If you get the short range model with no options, it starts out at $35k, then goes down all the way to $24,950 after including the $3,750 Federal tax credit, $2,000 New York EV rebate (clearly it's geolocating by IP address here), and "$4,300 estimated 6 year gas savings".

OK, so that last bit is BS, and it looks like there's a hidden $1,200 destination and doc fee, so the actual real price including tax breaks is $30,450 in NYC. Still not bad at all!

yes, I hate that nonsense. they’re trying to include rebates and gasoline savings. just show the damn price. it makes going through all the options mind numbing.
