>>demand for $90,000

But focus on the *quality* and the *experience*

Just kidding. Tesla was smart to shoot for the high-end market, but their success is based on the mid-range

Model (starting price) - deliveries for Q3 2022

Model X ($110K) and S ($95k) - 18,672
Model 3 ($43k) and Y ($55k) -  325,158

Conclusion: the market for $100k cars is much smaller than for $50k cars.
