The model Y is 49k, this is 40k before the 7500 tax credit. So the model Y is 20% more expensive before the credit. The credit makes the Y 16,500 more.

> As mentioned earlier, the rear-drive ID4 Pro model starts at $39,995, with the ID4 AWD Pro model checking in at $43,695 to start when it launches later next year. Both of those prices are before a potential federal tax credit of $7,500 is applied, however. There are just two options for the ID4 Pro at launch—a Statement Package and a Gradient Package.

You can get the Model Y for $40k for the moment anyhow, just not from their web order form.

Both the base Model Y and the ID.4 have about 80 miles less range than the Long Range Model Y which is the $50k one.

How is the ID.4 software and charging network?
You can use A Better Routeplanner to plan out some road trips in the ID.4 (and other EVs). It's a good way to see if a particular EV will be practical for you:
