The luxury aspect of this vehicle makes it so that it's practically out of reach for the common consumer.

However, this is the beginning, and as they continue refining the technology the price will come down.

Gen IV Tesla's will be consumer level and it's going to change everything.

Hosts: If not appropriate I understand, I do think this meets the requirements of E&E.

1. Eh, epic fail on their stream. Here's a NYT article about it (with pics):

Ugly doors. Fail.

3. but the price doesn't come down.

When they introduced the roadster, Tesla promised a $30k 4-door sedan with 300 mile range.

Now they've introduced a car even more expensive.

4. That's not until next generation. This is the same price as Model S.

The Model S is a luxury sedan, this is a luxury crossover SUV. No biggie.
