Reply to comment by Armenoid in The future holds a 25000$ compact EV leasing at 250$ pr month by RolfEjerskov

Is the bolt running well?

If Tesla released a Tesla compact tomorrow for $250 a month. What would you tell friends to go for. The Bolt or the Tesla? ...and what would be the main reasons for you choice? :)

This year I believe you'll see a compact Tesla for 250$ a month with 0$ down that will change the car market.

Tell me you have no idea what goes into manufacturing without telling me you have no idea.

Yeah they're 5 years late on the Cybertruck and haven't even shared a concept of this car but I'm sure they'll bang it out in 6 months

It's not happening this year, that's 100% certain. Next year will likely start production to maintain growth targets for 2025. They don't have a manufacturing location announced for it yet and may need to be built as it is.

Tesla would open up deposits on said car, promise delivery a year from then, and then five years later still have not delivered a single car.

I can’t even get my deposit back in the cyber truck and it’s been years

I’m so glad I pulled my Tesla roof deposit after 2 years of waiting.

….1.5 years ago. And they’re still not able to give a delivery date.

Tesla doesn't exactly have an A+ for build quality; it's like rolling the dice on whether you have panel gaps or not.

In terms of performance though it's entirely likely that the Tesla would be better but at this price... I don't know.

It's likely single motor, 20-30% reduced range, no FSD capabilities, and the same crappy interior or worse as they cut costs.
