I mean that’s a good price for a long range version... but it means a minimum of about $10k step up from a sedan to a small SUV or crossover... that’s pretty substantial. Give it two or three years when we see a couple other crossover style vehicles hit the market with 200 mile range. Yes Tesla will be able to say they’re in another league with over 300 miles... but if someone has $38k to $40k to spend and Tesla is $46k we might suddenly see an SR+ show up for just under $40k with 260 miles range or something.
The market will always push this, and thankfully Tesla is so far in the lead that I know they have a few tricks they can pull once they start getting backed into a corner.
