Tesla will launch a fourth electrical model in 2020
- The Californian manufacturer Tesla, which produces electric vehicles at its Fremont site ( a former GM-Toyota plant) will launch a fourth model in 2020.
- Today, the Tesla range consists of the Model S (F segment sedan, launched in 2012) and the model X (F segment SUV launched in 2015). The third model, called Model 3, will be launched in 2018.
- The fourth model will be launched in 2020. It will be a D-segment SUV, derived from the Model 3 and could be called Model Y.
- This fourth model will allow Tesla to move closer to its target of 500,000 cars produced at the Fremont site (compared to 80,000 in 2016 and 50,000 in 2015), i.e. the maximum capacity of Tesla’s American plant.
- According to Inovev, the three models marketed in 2020 could add up to 215 000 annual units and the contribution of the fourth model could enable Tesla to reach 300 000 units by 2021 or 2022. The target of 500 000 units annually remains ambitious With the product plan defined today by the Californian manufacturer, Tesla will have to exploit new growth markets more deeply (China?) and complete its range by other new models to increase its sales.
