The quarter after they hit 200,000 they the credit halves, then 6 months later it halved again and then after another 6 months it is gone. Only 2 manufactures have hit the 200,000 vehicles and that is Tesla and GM. They will no credits at all next year 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
