When Reuters reported in April that Tesla had scrapped plans for a
long-promised, next-generation $25,000 electric vehicle, the automaker’s stock
plunged. Chief Executive Elon Musk rushed to respond on X, his social-media
network. “Reuters is lying,” he posted, without elaborating. Tesla’s stock
recovered some of its losses. Six months later, Musk appears to have backed into
an admission that Tesla dropped its plans for a human-driven $25,000 car. He
said in an Oct. 23 earnings call that building the affordable EV would be
"pointless” unless the car was fully autonomous.
