I wonder if the Chrysler CEO is trolling us: "Don't buy the 500e, you get a $45k car for $32k!"

- wmf 11y agoThe car may cost $45K to make, but that doesn't mean it's worth $45K. Maybe it's worse than the cheaper gas version.
- tankerdude 11y agoI wonder how much of it is due to scale. If they were to make and sell, say 10% of what their other car models sell, then what is the cost per car? I'd like to see the data points at certain % to see if it's a limited quantity problem or something specific to electric cars where he'll always lose money.
- owen_griffiths 11y agoHe is definitely not serious - the reason they sell the car at 32k is that is the best price to get the required sales. If people don't buy at that price, they'll have to go even lower, and lose more money.
