Tesla plans to build an electric car costing €25,000 at its plant near Berlin, Reuters reports, citing a source.
The company's CEO #ИлонМаск visited the plant in Grünheide, where he “thanked the employees for their hard work” and informed about plans to build an electric car that will be sold for €25 thousand, the agency notes. The German plant now produces the Tesla Model Y, Europe's best-selling electric car.
As consumer surveys show, the high price of electric vehicles is one of several factors limiting the spread of #Tesla a cars in Europe and the United States, the agency notes.
According to data from the automotive research company JATO Dynamics, cited by Reuters, the average retail price of an electric car in Europe in the first half of this year was more than €65 thousand, in China - just over €31 thousand.#Свежиеновости
