Tesla prices Model Y standard below $40,000, debuting more affordable vehicle

Tesla introduced lower-priced Standard versions of Model Y and Model 3 to address lost $7,500 US federal tax credit and rising competition, aiming to boost sales with 321 miles of range each.

  • Tesla introduced more affordable versions of the Model Y SUV and Model 3 sedan, priced at $39,990 and $36,990, respectively, aiming to increase sales amid rising competition.
  • The new Standard models have a range of 321 miles but feature fewer options and amenities compared to premium versions.
  • Chief Executive Elon Musk stated that offering lower prices is crucial as the demand is high, but many potential buyers lack the funds.
  • Despite price cuts, analysts noted that these changes might not significantly boost sales, especially after the expiration of a $7,500 federal tax credit.
