Over the years, Tesla CEO Elon Musk has been promising an inexpensive electric vehicle, probably a price of $ 25,000, as a way to broaden the appeal of plug-in vehicles.
He mentioned it for the first time 2018 Interview with YouTuber Marques Brownlee“$ 25,000 car, this is something we can do.” Then in 2020, at the company's first battery day event, he estimated that Tesla could eventually produce above 20 million out of these vehicles in a year – or almost double the current production of Toyota, GM or Volkswagen.
Tesla's shareholder event began to intensify things last year, where the company officials talked about a special manufacturing technology, which they called the “unboxed process”. This success will allow Tesla to dramatically reduce the cost of manufacturing, allowing it to sell a vehicle at a $ 25,000 price point.
Next-Gy-Jean vehicle will probably be a crossover or hatchback and Tesla can include design elements raised from Cybetrook. But in addition, it will be fulfilled a promise made years ago to make EVS more economical for the public.
Elon Musk makes a lot of promises, some of which he cannot keep. Let's hope that this is not one of them.
