The average price for a new car is 34k nowadays. A used Model S is at least 40k[1]. Tesla has a pre-owned up for 50k. The cheapest new Model S, with all rebates + estimated gas savings, is 56k.
If Tesla really pulls off the Model 3, it's a game changer. It'll start the clock ticking until everyone can afford a (used) electric car.
