Tesla is already offering low 1.99% financing on six-year loans for customers looking to buy the $48,990 long-range, all-wheel-drive Model Y, the series production version of the newer car that debuted in early April. Gone are the days when Tesla had to keep hiking prices to avoid being hopelessly swamped by demand. Now CEO Elon Musk has to fight for every new customer.

Just weeks after the launch of the Model Y refresh, a slightly newer version of the five-year-old crossover, Tesla informed buyers on Sunday they can already have the car at a discounted financing rate. Interested buyers can qualify for a six-year loan at 1.99% if they put down $3,999 for the purchase of a long-range all-wheel-drive version. By contrast, financing rates for some of Tesla’s upscale models top 6%.

    I’ll continue to drive mine. I’ll get a used one once I drive this one into the ground.

    If you want to make political stance and go for inferior car? Go right ahead. I don’t give a shit what some CEO does. I’m sure all of you stopped playing blizzard games and avoid everything owned by nestle and for sure aren’t recommending cars running literal slaves camps, right???

      What a weird thing to say! It must be fun living in your goof troop world with the other morally bankrupt incels.

      Do you lie to women and say, “I’m not interested in politics”?
