Electronics usually deflate in cost because the big price to make the machines that make the machines only gets cheaper.

Cybertruck and all Tesla products are essentially electronics.

The rise in price today is temporary. Just like nvidia cards are expensive today, but won't be in a year.

I certainly hope you are correct. However if there is a lot of similarities between EVs and other electronics, the big question is, will they become disposable as fast as other battery operated devices I have? If the answer is yes, that $70K CT3 needs to drop a lot in price to justify it's cost.

Like electronics Model S has gotten better over time but luckily the original seem to last longer than my mobile phone. Unfortunately it's price didn't drop.
Model S price range in 2012 was $57K to $87K

This is today prices:

The Model S today isn't vying for the tier it was in 2012. They have Model 3 Performance for that.

If you look at features, the price deflated because the Model 3 exceeds most of them - and all the import ones - from the 2012 Model S. Range, charging time, sprint time, etc.
