Della new compact Tesla from 25 thousand Euro it was discussed for the first time on the occasion of the last Battery Day in conjunction with the project relating to the new Tesla cell 4680 , which should consen to produce more efficient batteries at lower costs.

However, no timescales have been indicated and several aspects of the project remain shrouded in mystery. According to a document from the Gigafactory of Shanghai , forwarded to the Chinese government, we learn that the realization of these plans shouldn’t be very far in time. Tesla, in fact, would have planned to deliver the first examples of compact Tesla already in 2022 .

“According to the construction project document from the Tesla Gigafactory and posted on the Internet, Tesla’s new home models will be produced directly in the Shanghai Gigafactory” reads on Weibo. “The placement and sale price will be lower than the Model 3 , between 160. 000 RMB and 200. 000 RMB. Mass production and delivery may already take place in 2022 “.

We are talking about figures starting from approximately 21. 500 Euro up to approx. 27. 000 EUR. According to what had been learned in the past, Tesla would aim at two different models for the Chinese and European markets. The first will be built in the Gigafactory in Shanghai, while the second will be assigned to the Gigafactory in Berlin. Elon Musk explicitly said that he would like to market a Tesla that meets the needs of European motorists and conditions of European urban traffic, unlike what happens with current models, designed for the US reality. However, it is still unclear whether the Chinese and European models will differ substantially or whether these will be small adjustments to a common starting point.

Tesla has recently started producing the Model Y in China.
