    The company is aiming to make a vehicle that retails for
    25,000 euros - or $26,838.

    Currently the cheapest Tesla Americans can buy is the Model 3
    which retails at a starting price of $38,990 - though this
    is slashed down to just over $30,000 thanks to a $7,500
    federal tax credit offered to buyers.

    Interesting.

    Alas Tesla are NOT really known for being quality-built
    cars. The closer you look the more you find the glue and
    duck tape :-)

    However, if they can build SOMETHING driveable for that
    price it'll REALLY fuck-over several other, or wannabe,
    e-Car makers who were counting on at least TWICE that
    figure for their products.
