They are, but Tesla is still massively above average prices(at least here in UK). Even the cheapest model at(now) £42k would be very much a luxury purchase and in fact would be subject to "premium vehicle" tax every year. The best selling vehicle in the UK at the moment is still a Nissan Qashqai, a family friendly crossover, starting at £26k. A basic model 3 doesn't compare in terms of usability, Model Y does but it's £20k(another very decent car) more than the Qashqai.
And finally, I imagine most Brits can't actually afford a £42k vehicle - even on decent finance that's £500-600 a month - that's how much I pay in mortgage for my house.
