Tesla<\/a> Inc increased the U.S. prices of its Model S<\/a>, X, and Y electric vehicles<\/a> by low single-digit percentages on Thursday, though prices were still considerably lower than at the beginning of the year.<\/p>\n

The company raised the prices for all variants of its higher-priced Model S and X vehicles by $1,000, while prices of all Model Y<\/a> variants increased by $250, its website showed.<\/p>\n

These represent an increase of about 0.5% to 1.1% since the last changes in price.<\/p>\n

This is the second price hike for the Model S, Model X<\/a> and Model Y cars since April 19, when Tesla last cut prices for some of its cars in the U.S. There were no changes to the prices of its cheapest car, the Model 3<\/a>, since the hike earlier in May.<\/p>\n

Tesla has slashed prices globally since January, including six times in the U.S, seeking to drive volume. CEO Elon Musk<\/a> has said the company is willing to sacrifice margin for sales volume but was also looking to move prices back higher, where it can.<\/p>\n

Even after Thursday’s price hike, the base models of S and X cars remain cheaper by 16% and 19% in the U.S. respectively, compared to the start of the year, while Model Y’s long-range version is about 23% cheaper.<\/p>\n

Model S is now priced at $88,490, while the Model X has a tag of $98,490. The performance versions of both these models are now worth $108,490. The prices of Model Y, its long-range and performance variants are $47,490, $50,490 and $54,490, respectively.<\/p>\n

Separately, Tesla’s Japan<\/a> unit started accepting orders for its flagship sedan, Model S, and its sports utility vehicle Model X in the country on Friday, it said in a press release.<\/p>\n
