(Assuming every unit sold is a $25k model with no range or software upgrades)
20 million cars @ $25K ASP x 20% Gross Margin = $100 Billion in Gross Profit
=====
(Assuming a higher ASP from range/software upgrades and millions of Model 3/Y/S/X/R/CT/Semi also sold a year)
20 million cars @ $35K ASP x 20% Gross Margin = $140 Billion in Gross Profit
=====
Add in higher margins and/or large profits from additional higher priced model ranges (vans/buses/light trucks/tunnelpods etc), Energy, services, finance, Robotaxis, future new industries entered etc at your leisure for even higher amount of gross profit.
Model 2 @ $25K gets us to ~10M cars/yr by about 2027ish.
Hate to break it to folks here, but 20M cars/yr will depend upon the arrival of a $15K Model 1 in massive numbers. Look for China first, but about another 10M/yr from this Model worldwide, by 2030 or maybe a little earlier if Tesla executes flawlessly.
Again, I think a $15K "Model Won" is the Robotaxi, Tesla builds them by the 10s of millions, and the profit margin is 1,000% with FSD/TaaS and in-car Ad-supported rides...
So let it be written, so let it be done.
Cheers!
