I’ve seen it rumored by several places that Toyota plans to keep an artificial scarcity on more and more models as time goes on. Basically, they are still going to manufacture a shit ton of vehicles, but generally produce fewer vehicles than their are customers wanting them. How severely they’ll do it will depend on…
Can they actually build enough of the prime to be meaningful? The RAV4 Prime is STILL unobtanium.

The $25,000 market adjustment.
Two obvious answers considering what it’s competing against in the “luxury” space: AWD and DCT (or some auto option that isn’t a CVT). If the price “starts with a 5", you’re in S3/240i territory.
the lucky few who to get to own one will hopefully take the time to experience this car doing what it does best.
Correction, they all have the bones of the MDX. One minivan in the bunch of five vehicles does not make all of them a minivan. Whether that’s good or bad depends on your particular kool-aid.
That’s exactly what I did but with an e-bike. Essentially a nice 10% cash back discount and plus 0% for 12 months. Amex cash preffered. Paying off and canceling at 11 months to avoid renewal fees. Profit?

First gear: I don’t believe a single word that comes out of that dude’s mouth. Musk is a perfect example of why CEOs need to keep their mouths shut when it comes to anything other than legitimate business discussions. He is the primary reason I will never buy a Tesla.

Too little, too late. People have…
Pulling out and expanding on one of your points...Tesla is about as luxurious, overall, as a modern day mid-range Toyota. If you sat in a Model S Plaid then sat in a Mercedes S580 the difference would be stark, the two aren’t in the same league. There’s nothing “luxurious” about Teslas, other than the inflated price…
no it isnt. tesla doesnt make luxury cars. they make premium cars. its the difference between being mazda and infiniti or being bmw and mercedes. tesla is infiniti level, not bmw level. bmws seats dont get stained fucking blue from your jeans.
1st Gear: I would argue that Tesla is only “luxury” in price. The inside of the 3 and Y are much less luxurious than my 9 year old Lexus CT (the cheapest Lexus) and about on par with my 15 year old Highlander Hybrid. The Model 3 and a Camry/Altima/Accord are probably better comparisons, even though I would easily give…

They are proud of offering OT and a paltry raise that will all be eaten up by taxes. Terrible
