Take out the tax rebate and gasoline savings, the $50,000 Model 3 is at the same price as the loaded Camry. But the car is MUCH better. Lots of people don't know this fact.
Auto loans don’t take into account the savings one might get from buying electricity instead of gasoline and the savings vary a lot from one part of the country to the next.
Similarly banks don’t underwrite auto loans based on tax incentives as far as I know.
Typical overextended consumer will buy a car that is roughly 1/3 to 1/2 their annual salary.
That still puts $50K car out of reach for many.
I do think that when $35K version arrives in volume next year it will take a lot of sales from the non luxury segment, Accord, Camry, Maxima, Prius.
