Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, made a statement in October 2023 about reducing vehicle costs, which is now ironic as Tesla cuts costs by removing features for new base models. Cost cuts include reducing battery capacity, changing wheels, and other alterations, saving an estimated $5,000. The Model Y Standard now starts at $39,990, $5,000 less than before.

Tesla’s shift towards robotaxis and AI adds uncertainty for investors. Analysts offer “Double Down” stock recommendations for lucrative opportunities.
