If Elon said the 25K car will reveal itself once robotaxi is available, people would just say its not happening. Similar to the feeling of this board when anything related to FSD is discussed. If I were guessing and based of Elon saying "you guys aren't getting this" They have no intention of selling a 25K car to the public. They are going to make this the fleet car for robotaxi. They are selling millions of high margin vehicles to customers and still probably will well into the future. There is no reason to dilute that with a 25K car at this time. They seem to be planning on building a durable 1M car that is cheap to make that doesn't require nickel batteries, high HP motors, etc to cut cost.
If even 10% of global population uses robotaxi as primary transport it will decimate the global auto industry along with insurance, parking, etc. It doesn't have to mean every situation is resolved by robotaxi, just that it is so cheap you need to make the choice to Pay more for that luxury on a per mile basis. This isn't rocket science and its crazy that people keep overreacting.
