Tesla also said that about 400,000 customers in North America have the ability to test out its experimental "FSD Beta" driver assistance system. Cybertruck pickup is also on track to start production in Texas this year but will not reach volume production until next year.
Wall Street Analysts are also bullish on Tesla with a median target price of USD 196, representing a 22% upside potential.
$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ share price has soared 55% since January 6 low of USD 101.80. It looks like 2023 is going to be a great year for Tesla and Elon Musk.

- Lionel8383Β·2023-01-28TOPWhat is interesting is Tesla is starting to reduce their average selling price to maintain market share. This likely means margins will go down. If you look back at Apple, they hardly reduce prices, except maybe at entry level models like iPhone SE etc.1Report
