Want that affordable Model 2? Its in the US and its called the Chevrolet Equinox EV which starts at US$33,600 for the 2025 models (vs. US$44,630 for a Model Y) minus the US$7,500 sales credit (which Trump may very well get rid of). With leases available in the US$200-300/month range. GM has at last arrived at the mainstream EV party.
Sold 10,000 in Q3 2024, but with the substantial price reduction for 2025 may sell a lot more. Also, the Volvo EX30 is finally coming to the US (delayed by those anti-China EV tariffs) starting at US$44,900 (with twin motors, US$48,990 for the applicable Tesla model). EX30 deliveries will really ramp up in Q3 2025 when production has fully moved to Ghent in Belgium. It doesn’t get the EV subsidies, but that may be irrelevant shortly.
Tesla makes the vast majority of its profits in the US…
