What are you comparing it to when you say "relatively expensive"? I've read reviews comparing it favorably to a BMW 3 Series, which is in the same price range.

- tedivm 8y agoThe Model S was in the same price range as the BMW 3 Series but only when you take into account the tax credit which just expired. Without that tax credit there's a difference of over $7k. That's part of the reason why Tesla is dropping their prices a bit now.
- jsight 8y agoThe Model S is quite a bit more expensive than a 3 Series. Perhaps you meant the Model 3, which is still competitively priced with the 3 series?
- vesrah 8y agoHow was the Model S in the same price range as a 3 series? A Model S started around $70k after the tax credit was taken into account, a 3 series starts at about $40k. Do you mean the Model 3, rather than the S?

- Agathos 8y agoFrom the article: "Tesla said more than three-quarters of orders for the sedan in the year’s final three months were from new customers, rather than reservation holders. That suggests many consumers are still waiting to buy versions of the vehicle at the long-promised $35,000 sticker price."
