Your link is for the State of CT incentives. The Federal list was last updated last Oct. They don't revise this list whenever a new car is certified, so it's up to the next publication of revised data. Could be April, if it's every 6 months. Credit will likely be the same as for 740e and X5e, since the battery packs are the same; so about $4600--well worth waiting for. Leasing earlier may not be retroactively credited by BMW. You can purchase with full expectations of getting it, as tax credits will apply to the whole year. Incidentally, the tax credit could go up to $7500 if BMW were to increase the battery capacity from approximately 10Kwh to 15 KWh. The next round of battery improvements should see close to that with no increase in physical size.
