Facing economic headwinds, mounting competition and rising production, Tesla this year has aggressively cut vehicle prices in many countries and is resorting to the traditional automakers’ tactic of offering incentives to clear inventory, analysts said.
If you wanted Tesla, but $55k was too much, $45k is relatively cheaper. I know people that bought Teslas recently, only because of the (3rd) discount.
Here in SoCal # of Teslas skyrocketed after the discount(s). Kia Niro EV is $40-46k. People can buy a Tesla for that and they do, because they think it’s a good car (it’s not). That’s why I said they’re buying them - because of the price.
No idea why people are still buying cars that this guy makes.
Mostly because they’re cheap.
You have a funny idea of cheap.

It sounds like they’re buying them because they think it’s a good car.
