Tesla Raises Prices

[Autolycus]

Those production numbers s/x can be misleading without context. The line for the S and X was shut down for many months as they transitioned to the refreshed models. Like Rivian, they would have sold many more if they could have built them. Demand wasn't the issue. For example, if you order an X today, you're looking at a March 2023 delivery at the earliest. That said, I'm still shocked there is enough demand at current prices. I optioned out a new Model X with the same features we have on the one we purchased in 2018 and the price has gone up $48,000! There's no way we would have paid $137k for a Model X. I do love when Tesla raises the price though. It's like free money. I can sell our used Model X today for more than we paid for it four years ago. Bonkers.

Very good point. I had completely forgotten about the crazy long shutdown with the "Plaid" transition.

Speaking of Model X prices, the Mercedes EQS SUV prices were just announced. The Model X is becoming less and less competitive by the day. Our Rivian R1T already feels like quite an upgrade from the Model X for significantly less (we owned a 2018 Model X for two years). The EQS will just blow it away in terms of luxury and comfort.

Have you seen the Model X?

Have you seen the Model X?

Yes but at least it is sleek looking. Doesn’t have random lights, silver trim pieces scattered about eccentric styling that is honestly overkill and comes out as trying to hard.

Model X is a bloated Model S. Like they stuck a straw in frunk and blew it up.
