In 5 years we will have a glut of EV's on the market and competition will drive prices. Once all those new battery plants start pumping out batteries there is no turning back.

So the M3 was supposed to be $35,000 and now is almost $50,000 and with tax even more. Tesla needs to pay for the factory as fast as possible so they can build 2 more and they know that will lead to being dominant in the world. (and or just add on to existing factories) Tesla also needs a...

Steel and energy prices will always fluctuate and may come down once all the auto companies get back to normal production and inflation cools. I also don't think the Build Back Better tax rebates for EVs will make it as it is the easiest part of BBB to chop. We don't even have enough EVs to...

In the next 3 to 5 years there will be a lot more competition for EV trucks and SUVs. If Tesla raises the price $10,000 a lot of people will downsize to an EV SUV like the Ionic 5, Mustang and others. IMO In 5 years, there will be a glut of expensive $50,000 EVs.

I had switched to the dual-motor from the singe a few years ago as I determined the single would not be made. I also added the full self-driving at $8000. Will Tesla honor any of their prices? IMO no, they can and will raise prices to make more money. If it gets too pricy I will just switch...

Good luck finding RT1. Wish I had a reservation for the Rivian as it is very nice and I like the size as it is smaller and easier to drive in the city. My CT won't be until they make 250,000 so it could be a few years.

And at what price? It will be at least $10,000 more and maybe $15,000. Will Ford come up with better pricing for the same range?

Price increases are not just because of manufacturing cost increases but also based on market demand. Tesla will squeeze as much profit as the market will allow. Fan boy will pick up the first couple of years of production and also exports. So $49,000 will become $69,000 until demand slows...

It will still be a few years before any decision.

I'm in full agreement. My guess is the price will be at least $10000 more and maybe a $7500 rebate. It will be a very close decision and will be dependant on other EVs on the market and their cost. I have a Bolt now and it if a fun little car with good range. The CT would replace the...

IMO the price will be at least $10,000 more even without any tax rebate. Tesla now has proof they can continue to raise prices as buyers will pay up. They can claim a lot of supply chain problems to justify the increases and fanboys will back them. If I can net my truck for $49000 I will be...

And I don't believe any CT will sell for less than $65,000 with taxes and with a $10,000 tax rebate it will still cost $55,000 or more. A lot of reservation holders will probably back off. I also doubt any CT will be sold in 2022. Tesla will just sell more MYs

Yes but Ford will continue to sell ICE Trucks for many many years and for a lot less $$$ and make a profit. I predict in a few years there will be a glut of $50,000 + vehicles sitting around if the Biden bill for tax rebates does not pass.

Looks like there won't be any federal tax credit going thru as one senator does not want any climate change funding. I think the progressives will let this tax cut drop for now as it can be added later. The funding for DC fast chargers could stay or be dropped. Hence since Tesla, Ford and GM...

IMO the price will be at least $10,000 more for the dual motor because they will get enough people to bite initially no matter the price. With tax and destination, it will come close to $65,000. Probably too rich for my taste. Tesla has not come close to their first teaser prices and they...
