2026 TESLA MODEL 2 $15,990 FINALLY LAUNCH IN TEXAS

EV Channels Review

This video explores the highly anticipated, yet unofficially named, Tesla Model 2, focusing on its projected $15,990 price point and potential launch timeline. The reviewer highlights Elon Musk's confirmation of a new, affordable model, distinct from the 'Model 2' name, with ambitious production targets of five million units annually. Key details emerge regarding production schedules, with pre-production units undergoing checks and full-scale production slated for September 2025 in Texas, followed by customer deliveries in December 2025. Global rollouts are planned through 2026. The review emphasizes significant cost-saving measures, including a simpler design, elimination of features like the panoramic glass roof and rear screen, and a smaller battery pack targeting around 250 miles of range. While acknowledging potential disappointment for those expecting premium features, the video posits that these compromises are necessary to achieve the aggressive sub-$20,000 price point, making Tesla accessible to a much wider market. The core Tesla driving experience is expected to be retained, with the base model being rear-wheel drive.
