prices

Tesla has increased its prices again across all of its models by up to $6,000. The automobile manufacturer has raised the prices of its luxury electric vehicles numerous times this year, including a major price hike twice in the same week in March and a smaller upsurge on certain Model 3s in April. Tesla updated its online configurator on Wednesday to represent the increase in prices across its entire lineup, according to Electrek, which has been following the price increase.

Furthermore, archived copies of Tesla’s website via Wayback Machine taken as recently as April 23 confirm the price difference. As usual, Tesla has not explained the increase in prices, but given the similar hikes being made by other automakers, it can be said that the recent increase in prices is due to inflation, supply chain issues, and slowed production in China.

Global Commodities Supply Constraints Could Hinder Future Tesla Production

In April, during Tesla’s first-quarter profits call, CEO Elon Musk said he thought inflation was worse than conveyed and likely to last all of 2022. He also stated global commodities supply constraints could hinder future production.
