E-cars – Tesla lowers prices – economy

The electric car pioneer Tesla has also significantly reduced prices in Europe and the USA in view of the tougher competition. The entry-level variant of the compact SUV Model Y now costs 9,100 euros less than before at 44,890 euros, as Tesla announced on Friday. With the Model 3, the starting price fell by 6,000 to 43,990 euros. Tesla had already reduced prices in the USA the day before. This gives US buyers a chance at tax breaks, which can boost sales. In China, the group recently had to offer its cars cheaper due to sales problems. For the Model 3 and the Model Y, the Americans in the People’s Republic are asking for more than ten percent less than recently. This was the second price reduction after the fall of last year.
