Electric vehicle manufacturer Tesla is preparing to stop production of its flagship models, the Model S and Model X. Company CEO Elon Musk said in a recent earnings call that Tesla is now moving entirely towards an autonomy-based future.

Musk said that it is now time to respectfully discontinue the Model S and Model X programs, as the company's focus has shifted to autonomous technology.

Production of both models will stop in the next quarter

According to Elon Musk, production of the Model S and Model X will be stopped in the next quarter. He indicated to customers that if anyone wants to buy these models, now is the right time, as their manufacturing will be almost completely stopped afterward.

Existing customers will receive full support

However, despite the cessation of production, Tesla has assured existing Model S and Model X customers that they will continue to receive service and support. The company will continue to provide necessary support for customers who use these vehicles for a long time.

The Fremont factory will get a new role

This decision will free up production capacity at Tesla's Fremont factory in California. According to Musk, the manufacturing space currently used for the Model S and Model X will now be converted into an autonomous production facility. Under a long-term plan, the Fremont plant will be transformed into an autonomous factory hub capable of producing approximately 1 million Optimus Robots annually.

The possibility of Model S and X entry into India ends

With this decision, the chances of launching the Model S and Model X in India have virtually ended. Tesla started selling the Model Y in India this year, and the company's global focus will now be on the Model 3, Model Y, and Cybertruck.

Model Y Price and Range in India

The Tesla Model Y is available in two variants in India:

The rear-wheel drive variant has a claimed range of 500 kilometers.

The rear-wheel drive long-range variant offers a range of up to 661 kilometers on a single charge.

This decision by Tesla signals a major shift in the auto industry, where the company is moving beyond traditional premium electric cars and betting on future sectors like autonomy and robotics. The discontinuation of the Model S and Model X is considered the beginning of a new chapter for Tesla.
