Not sure if this is where it goes but another thread had good info for anyone looking to “hack” the current loophole for the $7500 Fed credit for leasing:
The “pass-through” term is homage to another thread if someone gets the reference.

Multiple members have posted that Audi and VW are offering $7500 rebates via their captive finance.
So if you want to lease a EV or PHEV and want to skirt the NA build requirement for purchases (among other restrictions), you may want to look into one of these models/brands/leasing banks.
Props to @RVguy for the initial information (and everyone else who is posting their discoveries).
I see this a lot with Mercedes lease deals. A lot of buyers opt for 48 month lease but IMO, the lower monthly isn’t worth being stuck with car for another year. I’d understand if these were the old days of the $400 E-class’ or $700 S class’ but those days are long gone……if they offered 6 year leases, monthly would be even lower
Does anyone have experience initiating a lease through ally? Do you have to find a dealer who specifically works with them, or do tell the dealer that’s who you want to lease through and contact them directly? Thanks for any input.
Did I miss something or does this mean that 23 Kia Niro PHEV will be eligible to claim tax rebates in 23 tax filing as I thought this model is not eligible for any tax rebates as per new rules.
I have a 23 Kia Niro PHEV incoming in about a week. I was thinking of financing it but my contact at the dealership is saying that Kia has not announced any rebate eligibility for Niro PHEV for 23. I was thinking of financing it but if lease is going to pass the rebate to me right now, I feel it makes sense to go to lease instead of financing, right (provided the dealership accepts Ally leases)?
