I can’t imagine anyone in their right mind purchasing a new volvo with how they depreciate, although TX taxes may have me think otherwise. You’d need to verify if the volvo allowance amount is lease or finance limited, particularly on the T8 where the federal ev credit is occasionally passed through in the form of larger lease incentives.
If you’re going in and asking for a-plan, you’ve locked yourself in at a max discount, so there’s no surprise that no dealer will go any deeper. Generally, you need to throw the a-plan out the window unless you find a dealer willing to risk things to massage the numbers (which most will not).
I actually haven’t revealed about having A-plan, because I was able to get 10% pre-incentives on my previous Volvo purchases, something I learned from LH!
But dealers still uses on 6% pre-incentive is “below invoice” tactic
