I was hoping it would be under USD 20k including all taxes but now rumors say likely NOT under USD 25k?

A Toyota Corolla starts at $23K. I think the "Under 20" and "Under 30" price points (a la the original Model 3 goal) are simply a thing of the past for any volume car with reasonable demand.

That was based on the $7.5k EV subsidy. California will still give you $2.5k, though, so just over $20k.

Crazy to think had the federal subsidy not been cut, that car would be possible to get for around $15k. Unheard of.

The announced "under $20K" price was including the now-cancelled $7,500 EV subsidy.

well the website says "mid-twenties" so Id say more than a rumor.
