Read an interesting article yesterday on Tesla price cuts. Basically said that when Tesla cuts or increases prices, it’s transparent and immediately obvious due to their direct online selling model. So gets a lot of media attention. Other car manufacturers manage to massage / hide their price movements as they sell via their dealer network and most discounting happens in that dealer network. So, less visible and less attention paid. Made sense to me actually.
I looked at pricing for my my Model Y LR (blue) out of interest. It cost me £56,090 when I ordered it in March 2022. The same car is now £54,090 so £2k less. Not overly significant a cut really. Not one to be overly concerned about in terms of depreciation as I’ll be keeping it for 3-4 years anyway. At least that’s the plan unless I get bored or see something new and shiny that grabs my interest earlier. Or something with decent range, auto wipers and cruise control that works better
