Tesla stops selling the most affordable version of the Model Y electric car a month after its release

Tesla stopped taking orders for the cheapest version of the Model Y electric crossover and removed it from its online configurator just a month after the car launched.

In January, Tesla released a new version of the Model Y Standard Range with a range of around 390 km. The launch was unexpected, as earlier CEO Elon Musk, speaking of the possibility of such a version, noted that the cruising range of less than 400 km is “unacceptably short”.

However, Tesla has launched the car with a starting price of $ 42,000. The automaker surprised again last week by cutting the price of the base Model Y by $ 2,000. At the same time, Tesal Model 3 dropped in price.

And just days after that, Tesla completely stopped accepting orders for the budget version of the Model Y. As usual, Tesla did not provide any reason for the sudden policy change.

Now the most affordable version of the crossover is the Tesla Model Y Long Range, which has dropped in price to $ 48,990.
