Why hasn't the cheap car been designed yet then?

The Model 3 is pretty cheap for an EV. The average car in the US is over $50k now, so it's competitive on price.

  • If $50k is competitive for you, that should be a sign something's gone wrong.

    In Europe we can get new cars for less than half that price, both for domestic production and also post-tariffs on Chinese imports.

      Or, on the contrary, a sign that something went right. If Europeans weren't drowning in poverty, they would also buy more expensive cars.
