The less expensive, smaller one is something like a 17kWh. If you really could get that one for $17500 to your door it's interesting. Seems like there are other fees and charges still due.
To the OP, yes selling something in the USA adds a ton to the price of anything. Sometimes it's just simply because they can, but there are a lot of extra rules and regulations involved and an army of lawyers ready to pounce on the slightest crack.
