Maybe we can talk @Huey52 or @Spin into making a pinned message where folks can do that. I'm not sure this thread (and this title) are well suited to keeping tabs on that myself. But I'm not the moderator.

LOL yes VW might as well sink the rest of their 2021-22 ID.4’s to the bottom of the Atlantic too. But all the brands that have had burning batteries, have fleeing wheels+tires, or cost a lot more(including some that may drive into parked emergency vehicles for an additional $15,000)? They are perfectly positioned to eat VW’s lunch!

Hopefully that means all you guys in the US will get your orders soon.

I could walk to the Emden factory if I wanted to, and yet they still can't seem to deliver me a car ordered 14 months ago.
Not having to split production in Emden for US and EU should also help get more EU-spec ID.4s out there.

looks like there are 1,627 22 ID4 on their way or already in US. it will be interesting to see how many of these orders will be canceled upon arrival.

My guess is they can't remove the "sale pending" tag until a certain amount of time has past or it's auto generated and they can't do anything about it. If they've gone through the trouble of taking photos and uploading them, there's a good chance it's available for purchase. However, the vehicles may sell quickly and the ads will linger.

Speaking with multiple dealers from various brands over the last few years I've come to realize they have very little control over the content or don't have the resources to manage it in real time. It may not be a priority for them since they likely get a lot of inquiries on what's listed and those leads could turn into potential sales on other models or orders.

It is a fair point. I usually do not assume the website to be fully accurate and better to call.

the first $3750 is from battery requirement which is 40% minerals should come from US free trade partners and unless clarified or some meaningful administrative direction,almost none will qualify
the second $3750 requirement is battery manufactured in US OR assembled in US. Even though Model 3 RWD battery is made in china by CATL but battery pack is assembled in california and car window sticker says battery from US.
so unless Tesla clarifies or if pack is assembled in US then technically this version should qualify atleast $3750
we should be knowing more details soon
Do the battery requirements go into effect in 2023 or 2024? I thought I saw that the battery requirements phase in starting 2024.
