I understand the comments differently.
We will see lower cost models sooner, but not as low as $25k.
They're sacrificing some cost reductions (that are unlocked by the unboxed method and the "revolutionary" but untested new manufacturing methods), but they gain significant speed to get to market.
Imagine a smaller version of the 3 and or Y, built with the same manufacturing methods like the 3 and Y (so not unboxed).
It just requires adjusting the paint shop, robots etc. for smaller dimensions. But techniques will be similar. And smaller car = smaller pack = etc .
In the bigger picture these "new cheaper models" are half-assing it so it seems less efficient than going Model 2/robotaxi platform immediately, but it is a decision pushed for by investors/stakeholders/macro environment (less demand for 3/Y at the price points/margins they want).
IMO, in the eyes of Tesla, these low-cost-models will keep investors happy/busy whilst in the meantime Tesla can perfect autonomy. The second FSD Unsupervised is allowed Tesla can change the story to whatever they want again. Now they're playing by the book to stay afloat "during this period of uncertainty".

How do you understand a question literally asking about the 25k car and Tesla answering with that's the cheaper-car-on-current lines Elon mentioned in the opening remarks, as anything different?

You can BTC them now for less premium than you received, it I remember correctly. But then all the hyperventilating and the sleepless night was for nothing. It does give you peace of mind and you live to fight another day.

25k car is dead. They just said they will make some low cost models in the same production line. We dont' know the shape and cost of it. They refused to talk about it.

They literally said the opposite of that on the call.
And I quoted them doing it.
In this thread.

High chance we will not trade over 165 before pulling back. This is a prime example of preparing for the worst case scenario. This is a short covering into a squeeze. The narrative has changed, and yet we have really nothing positive to look forward to for the next 2 months so don't count on...

I hope many people took advantage of the sub 160 price this morning to roll their stuff out. The flow is real. The more people trying to call the top or a bull trap here, the more it's going to squeeze. Note that we've not been in a daily uptrend since January 8th. If we close above 163.5 today it will be a certain change of short term characteristic. I'd not want to stand in front of that train until the smoke clears.
Now, where are those price cuts when you need them?
