Well, this is rather shady. 4 Tesla dealerships, 72 hours, 8,600 Teslas sold, $43,000,000 dollars in government EV rebates issued just as the program was coming to an end. Doubtful Musk would be involved in this but, yikes. Pretty brazen.

So a government rebate was about to close and they sold a bunch of EVs just before it ended... Sounds about right.

1200 cars in one day at one dealership that just happened to translate to $4M dollars into someone's pocket? Nothing to see here. Move along.


Ya'll ignoring fraud because 'your guy' may have been involved. Pathetic.

Tesla



Are Tesla dealerships corporately owned? I honestly have no idea about this.

How many dealerships are located in Canada? You think those aren't orders from all over the country?

In Canada, yes. In the US it's a bit of a mess due to different laws in different states.

Seems like people taking advantage before the rebate ended and tariffs kick in.

I dont think this screams fraud

I wonder if another dealership bought them, cashed the credits then resale a new car at a slightly reduced price?

Or maybe bought for fleet cars.

How is it fraud if the government offered the rebate? Seems completely legal to me.
