You’re right in that
electric cars
usually cost more. **In 2022, Tesla electric cars cost from $44,990 to $129,990. **This price range is before any tax incentives or rebates, and not including any extra customizations.
If you’re looking for the cheapest
Tesla
right now, it’ll be the base Model 3. It starts at $44,990 for the Rear-Wheel Drive variant. The Tesla Model 3 is also the number 1 top-selling EV in the world, by a lot.
On the other hand, if you get the most expensive, fully loaded Model X Plaid, it’ll cost you $146,490 for the car!
Base Tesla prices by model:
- **Model 3 **- $43,990
- **Model S **- $94,990
- **Model X **- $104,990
- **Model Y **- $56,990
The thing about Tesla cars is that they sell directly from their website (and not from dealerships), giving them more independence.
Tesla has very aggressive car pricing, which means that often, their prices go up over time, not down.
