If that is still above your budget, you may get a base variant of Model 3 for $49,000. The cost for an optional second motor and AWD has been slashed to $4,000 from $5,000. With these customizations, the standard model would cost you $53,000. Electrek also reports that numerous color options have also been added. Meanwhile, there were no updates on a $35,000 Model 3 as CEO Elon Musk had promised.
Tesla will reportedly apply the new prices retroactively to the orders that have already been placed.

Goldman Sachs sees Tesla failing once again
However, Goldman Sachs is not impressed with Tesla’s performance. Reiterating its “sell” rating on the stock, Goldman Sachs stated that it expects to see the Model 3 deliveries fall short of street expectations once again. Though it sees an improvement in deliveries from 19,000 in the last quarter to 22,000 in the current quarter, it falls below the consensus estimate of 28,000 units.
Tesla is set to report its deliveries and production figures for the second quarter sometime next week.
