60D and P85 was just canceled (as was green, brown and black roofs)

internauts · Nov 5, 2014

Elon said they are implementing some changes to reduce the variations that cause production challenges:

No longer selling the 60 kWh in a dual motor version.
No longer selling the P85 single motor version.
Eliminating green and brown.

PS - those who got the prior smaller sun visor: He said prior purchasers will be offered the improved sun visor. Elon did not say without charge.

That's too bad. I should have gotten the RWD P85.

60D and P85 was just canceled

60D cancelation was mentioned in Q3 earnings call and while I didnt notice P85 being mentioned, both options are now gone from design page.

So we will have following versions available:

S60
S85
S85D
P85D

Green and brown were likely the least popular colors. Makes sense to drop them. Where I live I see multiple Tesla's every day. I rarely see green or brown.

They switched some other things around, too - for the S85, the D upgrade is now $5k, up from $4k. I didn't notice anything else, but I'm just going from memory.

Removing colours is a mistake. On the other hand simplifying the dual/single motor choices in the lineup makes a lot of sense.

BTW brown was beautiful on this car ...

Elon also mentioned brown and green were leaving -- not sure if it's happened yet though. But yay for visors

Goodbye Brown and Green

Elon just announced on the Q3 call that the colors were being discontinued.
The Design Studio has already been updated.
:crying:

Maybe the value of used green and brown cars just went up!

Hopefully replaced with some other colours so we don't have Red, Grey, Basically Black x 4, Black and White.

Currently only 7 colors in the studio - the two whites, red, blue, silver, dark grey, and black.

just checked my new order out and it's still confirmed with green. so it seems that they are honoring the already placed orders as configured......... at least for now!

JST · Nov 5, 2014

I suspect we'll see some new colors soon.

Gah, now I'm all tempted to see if I can find a new(ish) P85. Dammit.

ItsNotAboutTheMoney · Nov 5, 2014

Is this good or bad? Charging another $k for AWD (something included?), making people get the 85 to get the D, and really making people pay for the P. Trying to drive transaction price up again?

tdiggity · Nov 5, 2014

no more black roof, that's sad

AmpedRealtor · Nov 5, 2014

Performance Seats are also gone, no more piping...

cantdecide · Nov 5, 2014

Perhaps the color removals are in part to make room on the production line for model x signature colors?
