Tesla Raises Prices: Model S Plaid+ Now $10,000 More Expensive
Some other models are now $500-$1,000 more expensive.
Tesla has just applied another set of price changes to its electric cars in the U.S., this time increasing the prices of some of the versions of some of the models.
The biggest change is a $10,000 increase for the Tesla Model S Plaid+ (from $139,990 to $149,990). Such a big change might be related to high demand and high-value proposition of this model.
Three other cars also saw a price bump:
- Tesla Model 3 Standard Range Plus: up by $500 to $37,490
- Tesla Model 3 Long Range AWD: up by $500 to $46,490
- Tesla Model Y Long Range AWD: up by $1,000 to $49,990
