Tesla Bull Says EV Giant Already Has A $25K Car: 'It's Called A Used Model Y'
Ross Gerber, the President and CEO of Gerber Kawasaki Wealth and Investment Management and a Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) bull, said on Friday that the company already has a $25,000 car — it's called a used Model Y.
格柏川崎財富與投資管理總裁兼首席執行官、特斯拉（納斯達克股票代碼：TSLA）牛市羅斯·格伯週五表示，該公司已經有一輛價值25,000美元的汽車——名爲二手Model Y。
What Happened: "Tesla already has a $25k car. It's called a used model Y," Gerber wrote on X, adding that he is willing to sell his own old Model Y for the price. The investor has a model year 2020 Performance variant Model Y in black equipped with full self-driving (FSD) capability.
發生了什麼：“特斯拉已經有一輛價值2.5萬美元的汽車。它被稱爲二手車Y。” 格伯在X上寫道，並補充說，他願意以這個價格出售自己的舊Model Y。投資者擁有一款配備全自動駕駛（FSD）功能的黑色2020年車型高性能變體Model Y。
The Model Y is the best-selling car from the EV giant. A custom Model Y currently starts at $43,990 for the base version. The Long Range version starts at $48,990 and the Performance variant at $52,490.
Model Y是這家電動汽車巨頭最暢銷的汽車。定製的Model Y目前基本版本的起價爲43,990美元。長距離版起價爲48,990美元，高性能版起價爲52,490美元。
However, the Performance variant of the SUV was priced at a whopping $69,990 before the company started cutting prices drastically in 2023. Gerber likely bought his older Model Y for over $80,000 given the added price of FSD.
但是，在該公司於2023年開始大幅降價之前，這款SUV的高性能版售價高達69,990美元。考慮到FSD的額外價格，格柏可能以超過8萬美元的價格購買了他的舊款Model Y。
Tesla already has a $25k car. It's called a used model Y. I'll sell you my 2020 model Y for that. It's a black performance with FSD. DM if interested. $TSLA

特斯拉已經有一輛價值2.5萬美元的汽車。它叫做二手車型 Y。我用這個把我的 2020 款 Y 型賣給你。這是一場 FSD 的黑人表演。如果有興趣的話可以發郵件$TSLA

Talking about the low resale value of Tesla vehicles, Gerber said, "Elon cost Tesla EV owners 10s of billions...." Older Tesla cars, Gerber said, are "underwater," making trading in your older Tesla for a new one a less attractive option.
在談到特斯拉汽車的低轉售價值時，格柏說：“埃隆使特斯拉電動汽車車主損失了數百億美元...”格伯說，較舊的特斯拉汽車 “處於水下”，這使得用舊的特斯拉換新車成爲不那麼有吸引力的選擇。
The new model 3 is dope but yes, we can't trade in our older cars as they are underwater. Elon cost tesla EV owners 10s of billions...

新款 Model 3 很棒，但是，是的，我們不能用舊車進行交易，因爲它們在水下。埃隆使特斯拉電動汽車車主損失了數十億美元...

Looming Low Resale Value Concerns: Gerber is not the first one to flag the low resale value of old Tesla vehicles. Car rental company Hertz Global Holdings flagged the high repair costs of EVs coupled with the low resale value of vehicles among its reasons to phase out Tesla vehicles from its fleet earlier this year.
低轉售價值迫在眉睫的擔憂：格柏並不是第一個宣佈舊特斯拉汽車轉售價值低的公司。汽車租賃公司赫茲環球控股公司表示，電動汽車的高維修成本加上汽車的低轉售價值是其今年早些時候從車隊中逐步淘汰特斯拉汽車的原因之一。
"The average price of a used Tesla has declined 19 months in a row, moving from a record high of $67,900 in July 2022 to a record low of $33,913 today. That's a 50% decline," Chief Market Strategist Charlie Bilello from wealth management firm Creative Planning said in early February.
“二手特斯拉的平均價格已連續19個月下跌，從2022年7月的歷史新高67,900美元跌至今天的33,913美元的歷史新低。下降了50％。” 财富管理公司Creative Planning的首席市場策略師查理·比萊洛在2月初表示。
Tesla is currently working on a new EV expected to be priced at around $25,000. The production of the vehicle is expected to start in the second half of 2025.
特斯拉目前正在開發一款新的電動汽車，預計售價約爲25,000美元。該車預計將於2025年下半年開始生產。
