Now that Model 3 production is ramping up, Tesla will be discontinuingits lowest-priced Model S, previously the company’s most affordable option. Tesla will no longer be selling the rear-wheel-drive version of the Model S starting Sept. 24 but will be continuing production of the rest of the Model S lineup, including the 75D, 100D and P100D models.
Even equipped with its long-rage battery package, Premium Upgrades Package and Enhanced Autopilot autonomous capabilities, the Model 3’s $57,500 price tag is well below the $69,500 starting price of the soon-to-be-discontinued Model S. Replacing the base Model S was always part of Tesla’s plan for the Model 3.
Drivers who want an affordable way to get behind the wheel of a Tesla anytime soon have until Sunday to purchase the rear-wheel drive Model S. New Model 3 orders will take more than a year to be delivered, according to Tesla.
General Motors Company GM 0.57% is hoping the window between the discontinuation of the Model S and the widespread availability of the Model 3 will push impatient, budget-minded buyers toward the Chevy Bolt EV, which is priced at just under $38,000 and is already widely available.

Want to learn more about how to profit off the stock market? Or maybe you just want to be able to look sophisticated in front of your coworkers when they ask you what you are reading on your Kindle, and you’d prefer to tell them “Oh, I’m just reading a book about stock market analysis,” rather than the usual “Oh, I’m just looking at pics of my ex-girlfriend on Facebook.” For these reasons and more, check out my book, Beating Wall Street with Common Sense. I don’t have a degree in finance; I have a degree in neuroscience. You don’t have to predict what stocks will do if you can predict what traders will do and be one step ahead of them. I made a 400% return in the stock market over five years using only basic principles of psychology and common sense. Beating Wall Street with Common Sense is now available on Amazon, and tradingcommonsense.com is always available on your local internet!
