Tesla unveils lower-cost models in drive to reignite sales

Tesla unveiled more affordable versions of its best-selling Model Y SUV and its Model 3 sedan on Tuesday at $39,990 and $36,990, respectively, as the electric-vehicle maker seeks to reverse falling sales and waning market share amid rising competition. Tesla shares were down 4 percent shortly before the close.

Axar.az informs, citing Reuters, both versions, called Standard, offer 321 miles (516 km) of range and less powerful acceleration than the current higher trims called Premium. They can be ordered immediately, with deliveries set to start between December 2025 and January 2026 for many locations, Tesla’s website showed.

The Standard versions do not come with Autosteer, Tesla’s driver assistance system, or touchscreens for rear passengers. Tesla has also removed the LED lightbar in the cheaper Model Y. Both come with textile seats, with vegan leather available for the Model 3, and manually adjusted side-view mirrors. Chief Executive Elon Musk has for years promised mass-market vehicles, though last year he canceled plans to build an all-new $25,000 EV, Reuters first reported.

Instead, he chose to build affordable versions based on Tesla’s current models, sparking concerns among investors and analysts that the cheaper cars would cannibalize sales of existing vehicles and limit growth.
