Who says they aren't? They're already charging $60k for their "mass market" $35k sedan. Update: I guess technically it's $50k, the other day I read the average selling price was $60k and that was stuck in my head. Regardless, far away from $35k!

  The more concerning part is that they're still losing a fortune while only building out the supposedly high margin top end models.

    Tesla gross margin on an AWD Model 3 with Autopilot is ~$20,000. Twenty thousand dollars. And they are outselling BMW’s entire passenger car lineup. It cost them a pretty penny to get here but cash is literally pouring in for Tesla right now.
