The former boss ends the account with Elon Musk

An affordable Tesla for everyone should not be expected: the automaker is backing away from its plans to develop an affordable electric car for the mass market. The co-founder and former CEO of Tesla has publicly expressed his disappointment because of this. The decision is just “shame”.

No cheap Tesla: criticism from the former boss

Over the years, Elon Musk has repeatedly held onto the prospect of a cheaper Tesla. But so far a cheap electric car has not appeared – and it will probably stay that way. According to media reports, Tesla’s low-cost plans were announced at a staff meeting. Instead, Tesla now wants to focus on the development of robotaxis and deliver in the summer.

Now Martin Eberhard, co-founder and former CEO of Tesla, has spoken out. Speaking at the HSBC International Investment Conference in Hong Kong, Eberhard did not shy away from criticism: Tesla’s decision against cheap electric car is “shameful” and no less “embarrassing” (source: Reuters) He also suggested that Tesla would be doing China a favor. So he believes that Chinese automakers will play a bigger role.

Tesla’s shift in strategy marks a departure from Musk’s constant goal of making electric mobility accessible to large segments of the population. The reasons for the sudden change in strategy are not fully known – the powerful one Focus on Cybertruck but it should be associated with it.

Here are the cheapest cars:

Price reduction instead of cheap Tesla

Instead of focusing on a new, cheaper car, Tesla preferred to reduce the prices of some models. In Germany… The price of the Model 3 was reduced by 2,000 euros in both variants (Those: electricity) This means that the Model 3 is now available from 40,990 euros. Tesla has also adjusted the prices of Model Y, Model S and Model X in the US and China.
