Tesla is reportedly preparing for the upcoming launch of the Model Q, a compact and affordable EV slated for release in the first half of 2025, offering Tesla’s signature design and technology at a price […]

the Model Q will debut with a base price under $30,000 (C$42,300) in the United States after subsidies, with a potential starting price as low as $25,000 (C$35,300). In China, local production could push prices even lower, with estimates suggesting a starting price of approximately ¥140,000 (C$27,200/US$19,200).

The vehicle will be 15% smaller and 30% lighter than the Model 3, with an overall length of approximately 3,988 mm, making it Tesla’s most compact car yet. For comparison, the Model 3 has a length of 4,694 mm.

The vehicle will utilize a lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery, available in two configurations, 53 kWh and 75 kWh, supporting both single and dual-motor (RWD and AWD) variants.

This setup will deliver an estimated range of 500 kilometers (310 miles) of range

    If I remember correctly, the model 3 was supposed to be the affordable tesla. I have low hopes for this one actually being affordable.

      I also have doubts that they’ll be able to hit a sub-30k price point, but it will at least be cheaper than their current models.
