Tesla is reportedly hitting the brakes on its affordable electric car, the Model 2. Originally priced around $25,000, this budget-friendly option was intended to broaden Tesla’s reach. However, recent reports from Reuters suggest a change in plans.
Instead of the Model 2, Tesla appears to be setting its sights on self-driving taxis. This strategic shift involves utilizing the technology developed for the Model 2 in autonomous vehicles. The news has sent Tesla stock down about 6%.
While the Model 2 is on hold for now, Tesla’s commitment to electric transportation remains strong. This move suggests a focus on the future of mobility, with self-driving taxis potentially becoming a game-changer.
