The Tesla Model 3 Goes on Sale This Week

Tesla says its more affordable Model 3 car will go on sale on Friday. The car is priced at around $35,000 and with a $7,500 federal electric car tax credit, could cost $27,500. The five-seater will be able to go 215 miles on a single charge and will accelerate from zero to 60 in under six seconds. CEO Elon Musk says production was on track to start in July, but Tesla has often faced delays in getting vehicles to market. Tesla isn’t saying how many people have put down $1,000 refundable deposits for the Model 3, but Musk has said people who put down a deposit now won’t get a car until the end of 2018.
