Ultimately the decision to cancel our Volkswagen ID.4 electric SUV order came down to changes to the federal EV tax credit eligibility guidelines. The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 eliminated the 200k unit cap for electric vehicles eligible, but added a new restriction which excludes EVs assembled outside of the US. On the bright side, VW will begin manufacturing EVs in Chattenooga, TN beginning this year. The new 2023 ID.4 is expected to be assembled at the new plant and will thus be eligible for the tax credit again.
