Tesla shocks investors with its plan to quickly release a more affordable car. I speculate on what changes we might see.
. Zach asked who might pick up the challenge in place of Tesla doing it. Today, Tesla announced it would follow through with this and that it isn’t rocket science.
Use the $1,000 motor announced at Investor Day a year ago. I think the existing motor costs twice to three times that much.Design a model with 200 miles of range. This doesn’t mean you can’t have a model with more range, but many people don’t need more than 200 miles of range for a second car. Even if it is your main car that you take long trips with, if you travel in an area with abundant fast chargers, 200 miles is plenty for cost-conscious buyers.
So, what do you think? Did I pick features that would reduce costs sufficiently? Will this reduce the impact on demand for Tesla’s Model Y and 3? Would the car still be a smash hit? Or did I take too much of the magic out of the car, so it wouldn’t be a Tesla?
