Want the $35,000 Tesla Model 3? You'll Have to Wait Until 2018!

Description

Elon Musk's dream of having everyone zip around in affordable electric cars has been delayed. According to documents obtained by electric-car news site, Inside EVs, the Tesla Model 3 was expected to be unveiled as early as March 2016 and get a late 2017 launch date, but now it looks like it won't start production until 2018. The Model 3 will cost $35,000 before government subsidies, making it $40,000 less than the larger Model S, and putting it in line with the BMW's 3 Series.

Tesla Missed Goal, Delivering Half Million Vehicles

Odd Andersen/AFP via Getty Images Tesla had set a goal of 500,000 deliveries for 2020. On Saturday, it announced it missed the target by 450 vehicles. Some analysts had said the ambitious target could be tough to reach because of a slump in auto sales during the coronavirus pandemic. The company reached its production goal for the year, making a total of 509,737 vehicles. It also said production of its mid-size SUV, the Model Y, has begun in Shanghai. Consumers cut back spending on cars during the pandemic and Tesla's sales in the first half of 2020 dropped 15% from the second half of 2019.
