^This. The Model 3 could look like an AMC Pacer and it will sell in quantity. As long as it has a Tesla logo on it, and it's less than $40K before tax credit (and it arrives before 2019), I think it will be a huge hit.Similar to how exclusive fashion designers (e.g. vera wang) start exclusively for the uber rich, then release a Macy's line for the masses. Because of their brand at the top end of the market they drive volume at the lower end for those who want to be associated
Of course, they will need 5X the number of Super Chargers that they have now, but in that respect, Tesla is already so far ahead of any of the other auto-maker that it's not funny. Also, I would imagine that by 2018/19, the public (for-a-fee) charging infrastructure will be much more widespread than it is now.
