True, but the 300 mile range (or whatever the rating turns out to be) is only under ideal conditions and will drop sharply during cold weather, pushing costs considerably higher.

Yeah I was curious-I know limited production models can't get it and I think maybe the Super Duties don't either? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can't publicly advertise a lower price on tv, radio, or in print. But they can advertise a low price on the cars themselves. Walk into a Honda store and see all the prices on the windshield lower than sticker. that's at the Dealer and on site...Honda dealers CANNOT advertise...ie newspaper etc for less than invoice. What dealers do on site is of their own making. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HRG any additional incentives on Plan members are usually in the form of a rebate which shows as downpayment..ie savings. So there will still be significant savings for plan members....speculation I would damn near guarantee.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dean - you must not be paying attention. Dealer Invoice is MSRP. The spiff check is the only profit the dealer will make on the sale. It doesn't go to the buyer.

MSRP is dealer invoice. That's the price the customers pay (unless they allow for ADP markups). Dealer gets their profit from the spiff check. There won't be any rebates.

We may have to do the same as the 2020 Corvette enthusiasts are, and publish a list of dealers willing to sell at MSRP, and expose those who are asking for an ADP.

If I were a betting man, I'd say very strong initially at least. There is a the novelty of a pure electric non Tesla sporty CUV that is reasonable priced that will glad to purchase one from Ford. The Bolt has function but unless you want a 90's econobox look, that's all the big 2.5 have. This being more performance oriented and bigger/more practical, I think it will sell especially with tax credit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just hard to gauge the market outside of the Tesla-philes. But if any vehicle can do it I think this is the one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My M3P is probably truly on average good for around 240-250mi in mixed driving on $7.50 in electricity. That is about 3 gallons of gas nowadays. Find me a car that can do 0-60 in 3.2s and get the gas cost equivalent of 80mpg. Even if you halved the range (which would never happen where a I live; doesn’t get nearly that cold), you’d still be up by 2x on the game for a similar performance vehicle (figuring 20mpg for a serious AWD performance sedan). Youre not going to compete with EV in operating cost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
