CA owners. Fees ...

[DZ21]

I'm LA County, delivery in the next few weeks (allegedly).
Here's what Rivian quoted me through the website purchasing process.

Destination Fee: $1,800 (seems significantly higher than other CA residents in this thread)
Documentation Fee: $70
License & Registration Fee: $1,267.75

My experience has always been +/- 0.5% from 11% for Bay Area. Register in South Dakota to save on taxes. You can register to a LLC so when you’re pulled over and registration doesn’t match Ca drivers license, hon can claim it is for business.

I live in OC as well. We currently have a 7.75% sales tax. DMV fees alone came to $1,059.

I just finished 6 of the 8 steps.

Bottom line? Add about 12% to your total MSRP to an idea of your ”out the door” price.

Last year when i lived there, 9% sales tax plus registration fees. I figure 10% is a good rough estimate. I suppose take solace in the fact that CA has other incentives on EVs to claw back some cash later.

Has anyone been able to qualify for any California EV incentives for a Rivian purchase?

In my research, I haven’t found any Calif EV incentives that I qualify for, due to income. I suspect that this would be the case for nearly all Rivian buyers.

Nothing is available for Rivian. At least that is my conclusion after looking around. I am in OC.

Rivian buyers are SOL when it comes to EV incentives.

Do taxes delivery fees etc get wrapped up in the loan? I haven’t bought a car from a dealer… ever.
