Tesla is among the world’s largest electric car manufacturers. The company has many car models and electric car charging stations on sale worldwide. In this way, the company can easily deliver its electric cars to different customers all over the world.
The company’s electric cars are slightly more expensive than other cars. This causes customers to want more affordable electric cars. Tesla’s CEO, Elon Musk, made a statement that upset those waiting for affordable Tesla with a tweet he published.
Elon Musk stated that affordable electric car is impossible!
In the past days, Elon Musk replied to a person who commented on the price of Cybertruck, which Tesla will introduce in the coming days, on his Twitter account. Musk shared bad news about affordable Tesla in his statements. In the first post, the CEO of the company said: “Our primary challenge is affordability. Building an expensive pickup model is pretty easy compared to an affordable one.”
Elon Musk did not specify a clear figure about the price of the vehicle, other than that. In general, we see that electric pickup models are quite expensive. Considering that competitors such as Rivian sell pickups for around $ 90,000, we can say that Cybertruck will not be below them.
The second part of Musk’s tweet, unfortunately, upsets those who want affordable Tesla. Elon Musk, in his statement, states that although Tesla has great power and good technologies, it is difficult to make affordable cars. He also argues that other automakers can’t do that either.
“If it is extremely difficult for Tesla to do this despite our much greater economies of scale and better technology, it is nearly impossible for others.”
After this announcement, the dreams of those waiting for an affordable Tesla fell through. With this statement of the company, it has become certain that we will not appear in front of us with an affordable car in the near future. This answer caused a question mark in the minds of many users. Especially in a period when all brands switch to electric cars, the inability to maintain prices can be a big problem for many users.
So, what are your thoughts? Do you think there will be large increases in prices during the transition to electric cars? Do not forget to share your views with us in the comments section or on the SDN Forum.
