Have you looked at inventory discounts on Model Y right now? In my area the discounts are pretty high. And with a Cybertruck reservation you get an additional $1k off if the order is done before the end of the year. I am not sure it makes sense to wait, especially since you can get that money...

It can. If you bought a Model Y this year though, like the OP is considering, you would qualify for a $7500 tax credit when you file your taxes for this tax year. If they wait until 2024 then they could just get it at the point of sale.

Are you sure? To be very clear, most people who are not business owners have their taxes withheld from their paychecks. Look on your payslips and you will see Federal Taxes being withheld. You are paying them throughout the year instead of as a lump sum when you file. When you file taxes, you...

It would save Tesla money in a scenario where they need to offer a model at a reduced cost to move more units. In this scenario, they can do two things: A) Offer the car for a cheaper price across the board with the same feature set. For this example, lets say they reduce the price by $2000...

GreenTheOnly (the source who found the code), never said this was a subscription option. They stated "Front heated seats and heated wipers are turning into paid features (for new cars?)" I was approaching this discussion from a one-time paid turn on feature. l had read the actual post...

It should be noted that Tesla did have these as an upgrade option in the past. I knew I remember this being a thing for a while. https://www.teslarati.com/tesla-model-3-rear-heated-seats-standard-range/ Back in 2020 the SR Model 3, Tesla's cheapest vehicle at the time, had the rear heated...

This likely exists in code due to the market pressure (interest rates, ect) to lower pricing more and more, so they have another lever to offer a barebones option that is priced even lower while still maintaining options with current pricing and giving them a feature to set them a part. That...

Tesla said it via the Cybertruck handle on Twitter/X

I assume changes in pedestrian behavior are a major contributing factor as well due to the rise of smart phones since 2010. Pedestrians have more distractions due to smart phones and Bluetooth devices and are paying less attention then ever, decreasing situational awareness.

Let me reiterate, I don't care that they are selling merchandise. That does not bother me one bit. The tone and the whole "would you do that" part of video is what I don't personally care for. No, I wouldn't do that. But I am not in the business of doing that. They are in the business of...

Not a huge fan of this sort of video. I personally see their videos as an extension of their business, and as advertising for their business. If it doesn't make financial sense to tear down a vehicle on the business side they shouldn't do it. I would assume the costs of breaking down a video...

This is what I thought it was as well because it is grouped with the Cybertruck just like the Y and 3 are grouped together and the S and X are grouped together. To me, it implies it is part of the same platform. No clue what segment the robotaxi might be in.

I recall from past mentions that the nextgen platform also contain a non-revealed entry level vehicle that Tesla plans to sell at much higher volume then the 3/Y. This would round out their offerings so they have a vehicle(s) with a low price of entry more comparable with lower priced ice...
