[Gwgan]

Maybe vehicles for the Boring Co. tunnels will be added to the S/X platform and line. Maybe a new X is that.

Maybe the new X will get a "SpaceX" package where the FWD flap like wings and it can fly!

Flapping is not necessary

S and X production lines merged?

“Have heard from multiple sources that during the shutdown, the Tesla Model S/X lines were merged, and as of yesterday had not yet started up again.“

Hopefully they will fix the stupid shutter problem with the X.

Combining lines indicates they’re expecting permanent volume reductions until they are redesigned from scratch.
The rumors of a refresh are encouraging.

We certainly should know by the 27th. I can't imagine Elon keeping quiet if anything's up!

Strong chance it is coming... Only service center Demos are only available in Toronto now.

The X is only 5 years old. Still could use a treatment somehow to make the backend less bulky (ie like the original Porsche Panamera to the second edition). But the S, badly needs a major refresh.

Something will come out after march... You’re welcome not everything that was talked about l can’t say everyone will like it but hey any refresh is new. Lol

All inventory cars are sold. Website should be updated for the new design in a week or two. Slightly higher prices I heard. But like what I said not all refresh comes with better parts I would say on what I know some feels cheaper but it’s a business people will still buy it.

How much higher is slightly? Should we be gambling and putting a deposit down now sight-unseen?

Agreed cheapest model is $79 K. Even a few percent increase and it gets expensive quick.

 

[ChrisOtt]

I suspect at some point a standard range model will come back when range is appropriate, and long range will get a price bump.

$3-$5k? Even $7-$10k tesla is notorious on just dropping stuff like when they released the “refresh” model 3. This refresh will be more interior per one of the engr. They won’t spend more money on R&D for exterior hence cheaper parts will be pit in interior but we can all take it with a grain of salt. I probably wouldn’t like my $100k car to have the same interior as the model 3 or model Y but again that’s just my opinion. I wouldn’t expect an horizontal screen per “someone” at marketing and sales doing that will affect the sales down the road since people will just get the MY if they follow the same or close enough design. Some levers are gone like steering wheel adjustment and the lever for cruise control/AP I heard no more Alcantra headliners...but key card is most likely like the M3 and MY
