Tesla's Iconics End: S and X Models Cease Production
10 May
Summary
- Tesla's high-end Model S and X production has officially ended.
- Elon Musk announced the wind-down of S and X programs last quarter.
- Production halt signals Tesla's shift toward an autonomous future.
The final production units of Tesla's Model S and Model X have concluded their runs. Elon Musk confirmed the discontinuation of these high-end models during a January earnings call, indicating their programs were being wound down.
This cessation signifies a strategic pivot for Tesla, moving away from what were considered automotive luxury goods. The company is increasingly focusing on automation and its ambitious autonomous driving future.
Recent reports noted a special 'Signature Series' of souped-up Plaid models, featuring unique trim, was produced for a select VIP group. The last Model S was observed with assembly line workers' signatures adorning its panels.
