Meanwhile the Tesla Model Y is also selling as a discount after its price was cut by $13,000 at the beginning of the year. Today, the lower-end Tesla Model 3 now starts at $42,990, which doesn't account for an additional $7,500 US tax credit from January which drags the price down further to $35,500.
Meanwhile, traditional gasoline-powered vehicles have sharply increased in price, amid a shortage of computer chips, raw material inflation, and a calculated move on the part of automakers to keep inventories. In January, the average cost of a new vehicle hit nearly $48,000, up $10,000 since the start of the pandemic, Bloomberg said.
