50k to 66k is 60% run-up? do your math again. dude.Right, because 70 years of typical inflation is exactly the same thing as the massive opportunistic ~60% run-up in Model Y prices in the last 2 years.
Brilliant.

2 years ago the entry point for a Model Y was $39k, not $50k. Check your stats sport.50k to 66k is 60% run-up? do your math again. dude.
today's 66k model Y is not 39k(it is 40k, not 39k) 2 years ago. You are not even comparing the same car config2 years ago the entry point for a Model Y was $39k, not $50k. Check your stats sport.
Entry level price point is important and relevant, even if it doesn’t fit your narrative.today's 66k model Y is not 39k(it is 40k, not 39k) 2 years ago. You are not even comparing the same car config

Right, because entry level pricing for Tesla Model Ys and Tesla Model Ys have absolutely nothing to do with each other.Way to compare apples and oranges!

Keep huffing that pipe brother. Tesla is magic and has no particular connection to simple economic supply and demand. Model Ys are worth nearly $70k and they’ll sell every one they can produce at that price in 2023. This is totally normal, nothing to see here.

I bought my Y LR in May 2022 for $54k. The same car is now $66k. Crazy increase in a short time but makes sense based on the supply/demand dynamics at the time. I am of the opinion that with increased supply, and auto demand shifting back down to more reasonable levels, that they will be forced to drop the price. When and for how much, who knows.It wasn't even 2 years. Tesla raised the price of the Model Y Long Range by $17,000 ($48,990 to $65,990) in just 15 months.
I cant even discuss this with anyone defending it as inflation. They are not trying to have a real conversation.
yup. but if demand softens more... what options do they have ? while also ramping up output significantly...Tesla USA would find it hard to take a $67k MY and reduce it back to 2020 prices. That would crater used car prices and their existing lease accounting.
I agree my $54k 2020 was a gem. Had to go used for her replacement as I’m not spending $67k on the same car (a few updates).
Of course, if demand craters everything gets cheaper. It’s just, not, in the US. So, for now people will buy without the credit.yup. but if demand softens more... what options do they have ? while also ramping up output significantly...
If Tesla can charge more, they will.
But their overarching plan is to reduce prices by scaling production.
People are obsessing over "demand," but I pay much more attention to production growth
They will most likely not lower prices in the face of demand.If Tesla can charge more, they will.

so how are they intending on moving more and more cars with ramped up production? if prices arent touched?They will most likely not lower prices in the face of demand.
Good luck on an earnings call discussing lower prices, to keep margins unchanged.
They sell out each quarter. Major demand bought two weeks ago at a $3,750 to $7500 lower price. All companies offer end of the year savings. That doesn’t lower the MSRP.so how are they intending on moving more and more cars with ramped up production? if prices arent touched?
there's already little to no wait for most Tesla's per their site
