Tesla’s 'secret weapon' disappears from website and fans are panicking - home battery pack
This is a Type 3 car with a standard battery pack, which should be Tesla's "secret weapon" in the car market ", this affordable luxury electric vehicle will consolidate and enhance Tesla's dominant position in the market segment and promote it to the mainstream car market.
This may need to wait, however.
Lambert quoted CEO Elon Musk's comments on basic Model 3 at the company's fourth-quarter financial results conference call, the comment suggested that the basic model could be available to buyers later this year, according to Musk, a rough guess.
"The problem is the cost, as it happens often.
The affordable Tesla sells for just $35,000, but the cheapest model 3 currently sells for $42,000, which was launched after the price cut.
Tesla still has more work to do on the car side, reducing the cost to $35,000, and said on its website that it will take "4 to 6 months ".
"Now, this information has been removed from the website, causing some fans of the brand
A Model 3 was ordered.
This is not the first time Tesla CEO worried fans, nor the last time.
Elon Musk is notorious for setting a strict deadline for this or that milestone at Tesla, and then proving not to be in real time for delays on the deadline.
This may also be the case here: lowering the starting price of the base model 3 to $35,000 is certainly a challenge.
However, Tesla may not be able to overcome this.
In his report on the removal of the base model 3 information from the site, Electrek's Lambert cited a tweet from Musk in early February saying that the base model 3 would cost $35,000 after the award
But the company initially said it would spend $35,000 before taking incentives, which once again raised concerns.
The key to the problem is the battery pack.
If Tesla is to achieve its $35,000 target, it needs to further reduce the cost of the Model 3 standard battery pack.
This is clearly more difficult to do than originally expected.
