It's irrelevant why the put the prices up - you are right, they did it because they could. But they aren't the only ones - all companies do it. If there's a high demand - they all put the prices up. That's the idea behind the free market - painful for us, profitable for them. Will we see cheaper cars soon? Absolutely not. That ship has sailed. From now on we can just watch the prices go higher and higher. 35k car is no longer possible, 45k car is the new bargain and soon you won't be able to get one for less than 60k. The whole world want an electric car and until the whole world has one - the prices will go sky high.

They aren't raising prices because they have to, they're doing it because they can. Demand for their cars exceeds production so they're raising prices all they want. It wasn't even 2 years ago that they had a $35k Model 3. Now their cheapest Model 3 is $47k. Do you legitimately believe it costs them $12k more to manufacture that damn car?

"Tesla is the most profitable automaker in the world with the highest profit margins this industry has ever seen."
Yet for some reason they still need to keep increasing their prices by several thousand a year. 🤦♂️ Screw Tesla.
