$35,000 is almost exactly the cost of the average new car these days, so by definition it’s affordable to half the buyers of new cars.
People are buying vehicles that they really shouldn't be buying, financed by 9/10-year-long loans they really shouldn't be taking out. Take it as you wish, but by no means is the Model 3 an affordable car, even with the math that Tesla shows.
I don't consider the 3 an affordable car, and I have the means to buy a well-equipped S. Me getting a 3 would blow the price of other vehicles I've bought out of the sky (I recently bought a Civic for $19k the dealer wanted to get rid of - that's affordable).
