The electric car manufacturer Tesla has previously publicly confirmed that work is underway on the development of a new electric car platform. The goal is to develop a platform that significantly reduces production costs and the final price of the car itself. The first car on the new platform is planned to be produced at a plant in Mexico, but the plant has yet to be built.
Anyway, several industry observers inform that Tesla is considering the idea of creating a smaller version of the Model Y, which will be built on this new platform and the car will be offered at a more attractive price. The Model Y is a very popular model, so why not make a smaller, cheaper car to attract even more customers. Despite the popularity of the Model Y, it cannot be called an affordable car for the masses.
News about the upcoming Tesla model also comes from China, which is a very important market for Tesla and let’s remember that Shanghai has one of Tesla’s factories. Chinese media reports refer to a “smaller Model Y” and indicate that Tesla wants to produce around 4 million units per year.
As usual, Tesla does not comment on such news, while Chinese forecasts show that it will take at least a year for such a car to go into production. Considering that Tesla has not even officially announced the creation of such a cheaper machine, its production could be even further in the future. After all, we can remember how Tesla did with the launch of the Semi and how much the launch of the Cybertruck into mass production took. These were announced models with specific Tesla promises. As for the Cybertruck, testing of this car continues and production lines are being prepared.
