Model 3 is still expensive luxury
The model 3 was designed and marketed to be an affordable EV, and is still one of the cheaper options on the market.
Do you think any new vehicle is a luxury item?
Base price is 42k tho what are you talking about. That's like 3 budget cars. No wonder Americans can't handle egg prices when your finance education functions based on marketing trajectories ๐
If you told a Rolls-Royce owner that you owned a luxury car, and then said it was a Model 3, they'd laugh at you.
Everything above x price is a luxury item and that's a perfectly correct statement. Luxury doesn't mean the most expensive option.
You can get them under $20,000 at 2 years old.
Not like most of the luxury EV market at $80k+ starting.
Byd goes brrr
