The price of the most affordable Tesla Model Y is now close to $10,000 cheaper than it was two months ago, after another round of significant price cuts were introduced by the US electric-car giant in Australia.
After handing down two rounds of price cuts last month – with reductions of up to $8500 – Tesla has taken $3000 to $5000 off its most popular Model 3 and Model Y variants, effective today.
The cheapest and most popular version of the Model Y – the Rear-Wheel Drive – is now $5000 cheaper than it was yesterday, for a total price reduction of $9500 in two months.
It is $16,400 – or almost an entire Kia Picanto city hatch – cheaper than it was 18 months ago.

Unchanged in the latest round of price cuts are the Model Y Long Range and Performance all-wheel-drive SUVs, as well as the recently-launched Model 3 Performance sedan.
The US car giant has historically passed on price cuts to customers waiting in the queue, whether they have just placed an order or are soon to take delivery.
The third round of reductions in two months comes as Tesla deliveries in Australia are only 5.6 per cent higher so far this year – in a market up 14.4 per cent.
Sales of electric cars in Australia declined for the first time in three years last month, though the year-to-date tally is still up 32 per cent compared to the same period last year.
