This does not apply to the Ariya. The requirement to be manufactured in North America still applies. This is only about battery content.
You are correct. I posted this in a hurry. I apologize.
I spoke to my Nissan dealer and there is a chance Nissan could pass $7500 cap reduction on leases.

U.S. Treasury says consumer leases can qualify for EV tax credits
The U.S. Treasury Department said on Thursday that electric vehicles leased by consumers can qualify starting Jan. 1 for up to $7,500 in commercial clean vehicle tax credits, a decision that makes those assembled outside North America eligible.

Is this true? Nissan did not pass the $7500 credit to Leaf leasees?

Question about this. I’m at my dealer right now getting an oil change and one of the Ariyas on the lot says it’s final assembly point is “Brunswick”. I’m in Georgia and there’s a Brunswick, Georgia. I’m sure there are plenty of others (and I don’t know of a Nissan plant in Brunswick), but I’m relatively certain there’s not a Brunswick in Japan. So where is this thing from and does it potentially qualify for the credit?
Edit: Nevermind. Found a couple of others with an actual parts origin breakdown slip and it’s definitely assembled in Japan. They also say “Brunswick” as final point of assembly on the window sticker, so I’m thinking this is where they’re coming into port.

All Ariyas are manufactured in Japan. If you do not believe this, check the VIN, and it will confirm where it is made. The Ariya does not qualify for any federal rebate without a written binding agreement. If you have a written binding agreement (the definition of this is not clearly defined) and purchased prior to the end of 2022, you will qualify for the 7500 rebate. If you have a written binding agreement and purchased in 2023 it may or may not qualify.

Welcome to the forum. What Ariya spec are you getting.
I'm glad our Ariyas are built in Japan, usually that's associated with superior build quality.

Maybe it means that some things get added once they arrive to the states? I've never paid attention to that. What are you currently driving and have you placed an order or an Ariya?

I don't disagree about the likely build quality difference. I would prefer a Japanese-made vehicle over anything domestic, for sure! And not getting one as of yet. I am contemplating but won't do it while these market adjustments are so high. I just sat in a couple for the first time today and I have to say, they're pretty nice.

No order. I currently have a 2019 Hyundai Sonata Plug-In, which has been an awesome car. I really like the Ariya and the Ioniq 6, so my next car will likely come down to those two.

If your daily routine allows you to travel round trip on just your battery most of your travels then you may consider just getting your moneys worth out of your Sonata for several more years. That is of course unless your leasing and your term ends soon. Regardless, the Ioniq 6 I expect will be a great option if you decide to stick with a sedan such as your Sonata. If a SUV /crossover better suits your lifestyle then you likely won’t be disappointed with the Ariya either.

Yeah, my daily commute is 100 miles (50 to work, 50 back). I can charge at home and at work, so I currently get a little less than half of my trip each way gas-free. I would love to increase that but I may just wait to buy a full EV until I start working closer to home. I've heard different things on whether an EV is better for longer distance commutes or shorter ones and I tend to think there are just too many variables to say one way or the other is a clear choice. I do really like the Ioniq 6 and the range is phenomenal. About the only reason I'd wait now is that I know my normal interstate commute would just beat my new car all to heck and I'd rather not do that.😄

I have an 80 mile commute (round trip), and am loving the Ariya for this. I only charge every other day, and could really go three days based on the percentage left. It hasn't been very long yet, and everyone's situation is different, but at this point I really wouldn't want to go back to gas or a PHEV.

What kind of speed are you averaging? That's great to hear, btw. I have found numerous Ariyas available on lots right now with no markups. If I could get what I'd need on trade, I might pull the trigger. Alas, values have fallen off a cliff.
