Deductions & credits

there is nothing wrong with Turbotax it is following IRC 30D (a) as follows

There shall be allowed as a credit against the tax imposed by this chapter for the taxable year an amount equal to the sum of the credit amounts determined under subsection (b) with respect to each new clean vehicle placed in service by the taxpayer during the taxable year.

 

 

The date ordered affects the rules for determining if the vehicle qualifies for the credit but no credit is allowed until the year placed in service as state in IRC 30D(a).
