You had me excited there for a moment UCGal. Then I saw it’s GM that’s thinking Gen3 and building a $30-$35K volt. I know GM, $35K means $45K and it’s still a glorified Chevy Cavalier.[/quote]
Time to get excited again. Here’s the quote from the article:
Tesla is not standing still. It plans to add the Model X, a crossover derivative of the Model S, in late 2014. And in early 2017, it expects to unveil the first of its so-called Gen 3 models, a new family of battery-powered compacts with a range of 200-plus miles and priced from around $35,000.
I read that as TESLA is introducing a Gen 3 in 2017 that will be around $35k.
The Volt is already out and sells for about $35k. So this would be direct competition with the volt.
And I can’t imagine it would be uglier than the volt. (Which IMO is too ugly to ever own.)
