The project was touted as a testbed for groundbreaking manufacturing innovations to lower EV costs. However, the project was canceled, and Tesla shifted focus to self-driving robotaxis and stripped-down versions of existing models (Model 3 and Model Y). The affordable models have been delayed and no pricing has been announced.
