But on a plug-in car they can sell $1,500-$2k below cost and they know they will get it back when they sell enough (which we usually do) but then that’s it. So if your looking at a gas car the dealer doesn’t want to lose too much money on it, they’d rather make a profit of course. What this means for us is chevy gives kickbacks to dealers based on selling volume of plug-in cars.

(i.e. Would those two actually cause the dealer to back down despite being near the month-end?Īlso, I work for Google, and I noticed it is part of the GM supplier discount program, so I would be eligible for an additional $500-$700 off the lease. He said giving accessories isn’t under his control as it is a different department - is that true? I’ve heard dealers throw in stuff like this to close all the time. I asked the dealer to throw in front/rear/cargo all-weather mats and rear window blinds totaling (+$330) and a blue color option (+$395), but he balked.
