[EP104] - $35K Tesla Model 3 available now!

Hi everyone!
Hope you're all well!

Elon Musk hinted that he had a big announcement yesterday, and I couldn't guess what it was going to be... was it the release of the Model Y (SUV) and/or Pickup truck, was it a new gigafactory site, a new amazing feature, it could have been anything. Tesla really is an incredibly exciting company to follow.

The announcement actually was that the Model 3 is now available at Tesla.com for $35,000. This is incredible... the world's safest car that's fully electric, has the option of autonomous driving (optional extra for $3K), 220 miles of range on a single charge and access to Tesla's huge Supercharging network... all for a really affordable price.

The Model 3 before now was around the $60K USD mark... and those versions still have more features than the $35K version, but it's still incredible. This is actually amazing news for the whole planet. Petrol cars pump out a ton of CO2 and other polluntants that are linked to Depression and Dementia, amongst other health concerns... and obviously CO2 has a huge effect on climate change.

An affordable super safe car that is fully electric goes a long way to helping reduce travel emissions. There is still a huge amount of work to be done, but this is a massive step.

Tesla's share price increased when he hinted at big news, and then shot up at the time of the announcement.
Anyway, I'm really excited by this news... and I hope it forces all the other car companies to step up their game.

Thanks for watching!
