Tesla slashes Model S, Model X pricing in Australia

Cuts of up to $80,000 have been handed down across the Tesla range, as the EV manufacturer sharpens its pencil around the world.

Tesla has cut prices across its Australian range, with top-of-the-line P100D variants seeing reductions of more than $80,000.

Starting at the lower end of the range, the Model S ‘Standard Range‘ is now listed at $115,600 before on-road costs or $135,390 drive-away on the Tesla website.

Moving up to the ‘Long Range‘, you’ll pay $120,700 before on-roads or $140,050 drive-away, while the P100D with Ludicrous Mode has been listed at $136,900 before on-road costs or $164,465 drive-away.

There are savings across the range, but the biggest come at the top of the range. That P100D with Ludicrous Mode previously had a drive-away sticker of around $250,000 drive-away depending on options, for a price cut of $85,500. Wow.

Moving to the Model X, the Long Range is now listed at $127,200 before on-roads or $151,225 drive-away, jumping to $142,000 before on-roads or $171,425 drive-away for the Ludicrous-equipped model. Those cuts are very similar to those handed down to the Model S.
