Tesla’s Upcoming Event Sparks Speculation
Tesla is gearing up for a major unveiling event scheduled for October 10, which is attracting attention from industry analysts and investors alike. Gene Munster from Deepwater Management, a well-known advocate for Tesla, has made intriguing predictions about what the event might hold. According to Munster, the company is likely to introduce a trio of innovative vehicles: a Robovan, a Robotaxi, and a budget-friendly electric vehicle (EV) priced at $25,000.
Insight into the New Models
Munster, speaking on CNBC, suggests that while these models will be revealed, Tesla may not delve deeply into their specifics. Instead, the event might take on the feel of a celebration, with CEO Elon Musk addressing the overall direction and technological advances without giving detailed information about release dates, costs, or production specifics.

Robovan: This vehicle is predicted to join Tesla’s lineup, but Munster believes it will take several years before it becomes commercially available.

Robotaxi: Central to the event, the Robotaxi represents Tesla’s vision for autonomous urban transportation. However, specifics about its market readiness and operational details are expected to remain sparse.

The $25,000 Tesla EV is expected to play a crucial role in meeting Wall Street’s growth expectations for the company, with predictions of production ramping up by mid-next year. This model could be a game-changer in reaching a broader consumer base due to its affordability.
