Tesla Cuts Model Y & Model 3 Prices — What Does This Mean? || EV Obsession, Epi. 22
In this episode of EV Obsession …
Tesla cuts Model Y and Model 3 prices (again): https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/tesla-slashes-prices-model-3-models-y-vehicles-us-2023-10-06/
Tesla will invest $300M/quarter or $1.2B/yr in the latest round of Model 3/Y price cuts – which will not in any way help grow volumes past the next 2 weeks, probably.
This is gross managerial incompetence.
I know i know – Elon knows best.
