Tesla Introduces New Stealth Grey Paint Color For Model S And Model X

Tesla is attempting to make its flagship duo, consisting of the Mannequin S and Mannequin X, extra enticing with a brand new paint shade to spice up weakening gross sales.

Let’s recall that throughout the third quarter, world deliveries of the Model S and Model X have been down by 14 percent year-over-year at 15,985. The nine-month outcome for 2023 can be within the purple at 45,905 (down 7 p.c year-over-year). In its greatest years, Tesla was promoting about 100,000 items a yr.

One of many options to make the Mannequin S/Mannequin X duo extra enticing is the addition of recent paint colours. In March, the company introduced a new Ultra Red paint color and initially charged $3,000 for it.

In September, we reported that all optional paint colors became free, whereas the corporate applied significant price cuts of $13,500-$18,500, which even allowed one of the Model X versions to qualify for the federal tax credit. There was one price increase for the Model X Plaid earlier this month, however general, the provide is now fairly good in comparison with the earlier months.

The newest transfer is the launch of a brand new Stealth Gray paint shade, which replaces the Midnight Grey. Tesla says that it is now out there for the Mannequin S and Mannequin X in North America and Asia. Curiously, Europe was not talked about (regardless of all of the automobiles coming from the identical manufacturing unit).

The opposite paint colours are Pearl White Multi-Coat, Stable Black, Deep Blue Metallic, and Extremely Crimson.

The Stealth Gray paint shade seems to be probably the most enticing however that is subjective, after all. It debuted on the Tesla Mannequin 3 Highland model from the Giga Shanghai manufacturing unit.

We will presently see many video examples of the Stealth Gray Mannequin 3 (take a look at the one under), however we’ve to attend to see whether or not it is going to be the very same shade on the Mannequin S/Mannequin X, or perhaps barely completely different with the identical identify.
