<\/p>\n As they are Monday, the Model S starts at $91,380, including the mandatory $1,390 destination fee. That\u2019s for the Dual Motor version offering a 405-mile EPA range and claimed 0-60 mph time of 3.1 seconds. The Dual Motor version of the Model X starts at $101,380 in five-passenger form, while six- and seven-passenger versions are available at extra cost.\u00a0<\/p>\n These prices, while much lower than they were last year, remain far higher than in late 2020, when the company dropped prices on the Model S<\/a> in an apparent effort to match the Lucid Air. Both models have since hiked prices; the Air starts at $94,400<\/a> in its dual-motor Pure version, rated at 410 miles of range.\u00a0<\/p>\n 2023 Tesla Model X – Courtesy of Tesla, Inc.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Also of note: The top-performance Tesla Model S Plaid and Model X Plaid both now start at the same price\u2014$111,380. Tesla claims that the Model S Plaid, with a 396-mile range rating, remains the quickest accelerating car in production today (0-60 mph time of 1.99 seconds and quarter-mile time of 9.23 seconds), while the Model X Plaid achieves a 333-mile range rating and is claimed to be the quickest-accelerating SUV in production today. Both Plaid models have a tri-motor, 1,020-horsepower propulsion system, plus upgraded brake pads and a carbon-fiber spoiler.\u00a0<\/p>\n Tesla continues to offer its $15,000 Full Self-Driving package\u2014now labeled Full Self-Driving Capability\u2014on both of these models. Up until now that has included the Full Self-Driving Beta system allowing Autosteer on City Streets, but last month the company issued a recall on that system after federal regulators said that it poses \u201can unreasonable risk to motor vehicle safety.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n Tesla hasn\u2019t yet delivered the required firmware update to vehicles, and it\u2019s reportedly halted new software installations of Full Self-Driving beta software ahead of the update.\u00a0<\/p>\n 2023 Tesla Model X – Courtesy of Tesla, Inc.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The move could wreak further havoc on the used Tesla market\u2014or help make used Teslas more affordable, depending on your outlook. Amid signs that the Tesla demand bubble had burst, used Tesla prices were already dropping<\/a> in the later half of 2022 before the January price cuts, and prior to those Tesla offered a discount on the Model 3 and Model Y<\/a> of up to $7,500.<\/p>\n At Tesla\u2019s Investor Day last week, Tesla CEO Elon Musk batted back the possibility that the market may be getting tighter, quipping that demand is \u201cindistinguishable from infinite.\u201d<\/p>\n However Tesla might want to see this, the price cut represents how competitive\u2014and crowded\u2014the premium EV field has become, with entries from Rivian, Lucid, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Cadillac, and others gaining EV market share.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Over the weekend, Tesla again cut prices on its Model S sedan and Model X SUV.\u00a0 The company already lopped $10,000 off the price of the Model S in January, as part of sweeping price cuts across the entire lineup; now it\u2019s cut another $5,000.
