Tesla Model Y: another price increase?
Last Updated:
The last time I checked, the Model Y was $63 000. Just a few days ago it seems.
Today it’s already $3000 more. I guess I missed that. Not sure when it happened. That’s on top of the $12 000 or so increase from last year.
Apparently, they don’t really care since, as you can see, there is a year waiting for this on this particular model (no option)
I guess this will eventually make people look at other cars? For $66 000 there seem to be a few really good choices out there. Like the great new Cadillac Lyriq for $3000 less. The Audi e-Tron (a big battery improvement is coming soon). These 2 also have real luxury car interiors, unlike the Model Y which carries over the much cheaper Model 3 interior. (itself far from being luxurious)
I don’t know how much Tesla’s brand image can take. Between crazy entitled billionaire Elon’s behavior and offensive tweets. And a number of excellent EVs coming from other manufacturers. I just don’t think this can last that long.
Although it has so far. It seems people just don’t care…
