See my other reply in this subthread - Bolt/Model 3 will be equivalent in terms of price, so I don't see how the Bolt is more "economical".
- untog 10y agoCertainly possible, but the Model 3 isn't available yet and (according to link in the article) is predicted by some to not be available until 2018. So it's difficult to compare the buying choices for customers when one car can be bought and the other cannot.
- tclAmockingbird 10y agoThe federal tax rebate is likely to phase out over the course of the Model 3 introduction: it isn't a given that the effective pricing will be be similar. It's also premature to compare pricing without the Model 3 specifications.
- cmrdporcupine 10y agoI can buy a Bolt nowish. The Model 3 is still vaporware.
- mikestew 10y agoBolt/Model 3 will be equivalent in terms of price It's an old, yellowed page out of the Microsoft book: "what we have in the pipeline is better than what you can buy today!" We know nothing of the as-yet-unshipped Model 3. Let's hold off on those side-by-side comparisons. Because if you want to compare, we should weight the "can buy today" column quite heavily.
