Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA) swiftly removed its recently introduced standard range Model S and X versions from its website, just weeks after their U.S. debut.
These variants, priced $10,000 lower than the long-range models, offered reduced range and slower 0-60 mph acceleration.
Yet, Tesla has now discontinued them on its website, exclusively showcasing the long-range and plaid versions.
Notably, Tesla simultaneously reduced prices by up to 19% on the remaining models, making the Model X eligible for a $7,500 EV tax credit. The updated pricing is as follows:
- Model S dual motor all-wheel drive: $74,990
- Model S Plaid tri-motor AWD: $89,990
- Model X dual-motor AWD: $79,990
- Model X Plaid tri-motor AWD: $89,990
This adjustment reflects Tesla’s strategy to streamline its offerings and maximize affordability for customers.
