Tesla will officially unveil its first budget-friendly vehicle next spring

Tesla may be the biggest name in the all-electric vehicle market at the moment, but that doesn’t change the fact that the one car it actually sells is a prohibitively expensive luxury sedan that most people can’t afford. That’s why everyone has been so worked up about the Model 3, as it’ll be the first Tesla vehicle that even budget-conscious buyers will be able to get their hands on. Unfortunately, while the company will be officially unveiling the Model 3 next spring, production of the vehicle won’t actually begin for a couple of years.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk recently announced plans to unveil his company’s highly-anticipated Model 3 electric sedan next spring after confirming its existence a year ago. The budget-minded Model 3, which will be capable of traveling more than 200 miles on a single charge, is likely to be a pivotal turning point for Tesla. The company’s current Model S starts at $69,000 while pre-orders for the Signature Series of its upcoming Model X SUV require a $40,000 deposit with pricing starting at $132,000. The Model 3 will start at $35,000. Production of Tesla’s budget-friendly electric sedan is still about two years away, Musk revealed, adding that its Gigafactory needs to be fully operational first. For those not up to speed (no pun intended), the Gigafactory is the name of the massive battery production facility that Tesla is currently building in Nevada with help from Panasonic. Once complete, the $5 billion facility will be the largest and most advanced of its kind in the world.
