There will be disappointment among many Tesla fans that the new models promised won't be going into production this year. Equally, though, Tesla now has many different constituencies to please. The growing pains of a young car company. Both have massive profit margins at the moment so they won't be keen to stop selling them. Model X may be replaced by a Cybertruck SUV, Model S may be replaced by something based on the Roadster. Probably unlikely that they will be substantially restyled as part of this. As the 4680 cells become availible in the next year expect the Model S & X to pick up this cell and its associated structural battery. We know that Tesla was going to sell the Plaid + but canned it to avoid canabalising sales from the Plaid and long range. The Plaid and Long range are 150-200kg lighter than the 2020 model cars they repaced due to a new battery pack which actually has less energy in it as the cars are lighter and don't need as much energy to go the same distance. They bascially continously improve the vehicle and throw in improvements when they are ready rather than having yearly models or facelifts. Tesla works a little differently to most manufacturers, the Model S sold today has very little in common with the one released in 2013.
I am not aware of new models in development. 'S and X being wound down as second gen models being developed in secret.'ĭo you have a source for this? The S has just received a major update, the X will be next I assume. We have enough on our plate - too much, really." Indeed, when asked about progress on this entry-level model, Musk said: "We're not currently working on the $25,000 car. Musk's remarks also dampen anticipation for Tesla's long-promised 'sub-$25,000' (£17,000) electric hatchback, which was expected to launch in 2022 or 2023 as an autonomous-capable rival to C-segment EVs including the Volkswagen ID 3 and Renault Mégane E-tech. Notably, Tesla only recently withdrew mentions of a 2022 launch date from the online order page for the Cybertruck, though is still taking fully refundable £100 deposits from interested customers in the UK, and promises they will be able to configure their vehicle "as production nears". He did say that the firm will begin implementing tooling to support production of the Cybertruck and Roadster in 2022, with the aim of launching them "hopefully next year". Launching a new car in 2021 "wouldn't have boosted output", Musk said, emphasising that the additional resources that must be diverted to the launch of a new model would restrict the firm's ability to produce other models at capacity. "We will not be introducing new vehicles this year," Musk confirmed. Tesla to detail new EV platform in March after record 2022.Revolution or repetition?

The dampened demand combined with an overestimation of sales projections dictates that the price of the product would drop. So, why are we talking about Tesla offering such significant price reductions for the Tesla Model S? Well, it all ties back to the most basic theory of economics - the price equilibrium theory. This price reduction will be the third price reduction that Tesla has announced on the Tesla Model S. We’re talking about a massive discount of $5000. While every vehicle in the Tesla portfolio has seen a price cut, the price reduction announced on the Tesla Model S is the most significant to date. In fact, Tesla has yet again announced price cuts not just for the Tesla Model S but for its entire lineup. Although, it is quite uncommon to see a price cut in luxury cars that is exactly what Tesla has done. With a decrease in demand, any business would focus on pushing sales, and what's the best way to do that? Offer incentives and price cuts, of course.
