The Model S and Model X account for something like 4% of Tesla’s sales today. They are very niche models.
With cost-cutting and margin improvement driving everything at Tesla now, it makes sense they’d discontinue the expensive special configurations of the niche models.

Which means the only savings are from streamlining the production process (but I guess they have enough other options they need to keep track of) and maybe some simplification on the spare parts side (but most carmakers have already optimized this so the parts are mostly the same no matter on which side the steering is).
- youngtaff 3y agoYeh but the S is still the only good looking Tesla
- dzhiurgis 3y ago"Good looking" isn't Tesla's goal. It's all about making more cheaper EVs. There are many other amazing luxury EVs nowadays if you are into flexing.
