With just a few weeks left in the third quarter, Tesla has launched a new incentive for customers of the Model 3 and Model Y Long Range and Performance in the United States. As per the company, customers could acquire a qualified Model 3 or Model Y and pay $0 at signing.
As noted by Tesla on the order page of the Model 3 and Model Y, the $0 due at signing promotion applies to financed vehicles when buyers apply for the $7,500 federal tax credit at point of sale OR. Customers who opt in for the $0 due at signing promotion should also expect a 2.49% APR for their vehicles’ payments for up to 60 months for a Model 3 or up to 72 months for a Model Y.
Customers who wish to get an even lower APR could instead pay a 20% downpayment for a Model Y for a loan term of 36-72 months, or a Model 3 for a loan term of 36-60 months. Buyers who pay a 20% downpayment for the Model 3 or Model Y would be getting a very attractive 1.99% APR for their purchase.
1.99% APR available through 9/30

Tesla has noted, however, that the promotional rates are available for qualified buyers with good credit and who order and take delivery of a new Model 3 or Model Y by the end of Q3 2024. The company also noted in its social media post that the $0 due at signing promotion applies to new orders that were placed September 12, 2024 or later.
Tesla has promoted its new incentive on the official account of Tesla North America on social media platform X. Images shared online suggest that the electric vehicle maker is also sending messages to potential customers about the ongoing promotion. Following is the message Tesla is sending to its customers about its $0 due at delivery incentive.

The Model 3 and Model Y are Tesla’s two best-selling vehicles, and they comprise the lion’s share of the company’s sales every quarter. Both vehicles are popular, so it would be quite interesting to see just how much the recently announced $0 due at signing promotion affects Model 3 and Model Y orders in the United States this month.
