The company cut the prices of the Model Y, a small SUV which is Tesla's most popular model and the top-selling electric vehicle in the US, and also of the Models X and S, its older and more expensive models. Prices for the Model 3 sedan and the Cybertruck stayed the same. The cuts reduced the starting price for a Model Y to USD 42,990 and to USD 72,990 for a Model S and USD 77,990 for a Model X.
