Tesla said it will focus on sales growth rather than margins this year. The company expects to profit later from the software. The more cars on the road, the bigger the potential profits will be in the future.
Tesla has applied several rounds of price cuts around the world this year, making the company’s cars much more affordable. Raising prices for its cars now indicates that demand is very high. This is not surprising, since the prices of Tesla cars around the world have become very attractive even for those who previously could not afford to buy one.
