There’s tremendous demand for the Model 3 among Tesla’s 30,000 employees—most of whom are probably unable to afford the pricier Model S and Model X. For context, the company is currently able to make about 2,000 Model S and Model X cars a week. Model S and Model X growth would continue, but at a slowing rate. The amount of wiring used has been cut in half, from 3km worth in the Model S to 1.5km in the Model 3. There’s one screen and one computer instead of two of each in the Model S. And there are no eccentric flourishes like self-presenting door handles or falcon-wing doors.
