More recently, during Tesla’s first quarter earnings call, Musk avoided news of Model 2 pricing being lower than previously mentioned. And he pointed to the upcoming launch of Robotaxi. It will go on sale in August this year However, during this conference, Tesla hinted that it will use its existing production line and platform to launch a more affordable electric car. There are rumors that this lower priced model will be a hatchback. And it may be the TESLA MODEL 3 Hatchback that will be launched next year.
Not long ago, Tesla canceled its Model 2 plans and launched its robot taxi plans, also known as Robotaxi, and decided to launch it on August 8 this year, as today is an auspicious day in everyone’s Chinese culture. So, it is expected that the press conference will be held in China this time.
At the meeting, Tesla shareholders said that Tesla will accelerate the launch of new models. Including lower priced models that will launch before the second half of 2025. They will also integrate the next platform with the existing vehicle architecture. The reason is simple: to reduce the cost of achieving a selling price.
Tesla’s Model 3 still uses traditional stamping and welding processes. This means that the next Model 3 will use Tesla’s most mainstream automaking technology to date, and with this, Model 3 prices will drop even further. And according to current news, the next Model 3 is likely to launch a hatchback version first. Mainly for European and Chinese markets. This means that a cheaper Tesla will enter the market in hatchback form first.
If Tesla ever built a Model 3 hatchback, however, it could certainly help automakers increase sales of current entry-level models by investing a little more to build them. At the same time, it is also another option in a variety of markets.
