Tesla prices change all the time
As we’ve pointed out plenty of times in the past, Tesla’s prices fluctuate almost weekly, usually by a couple of hundred bucks or so, and that trend has continued through 2025 so far. As such, we’ve included the latest prices, per Tesla’s website, as of May 2025.
The latest Tesla prices, by model, as of May 2025
As you’ll see below, we’ve provided a handy table for each Tesla model, including some performance specs and two pricing levels. The performance specs (range, top speed, acceleration) pertain to the base model of each respective trim i.e. zero-add ons.
You’ll notice that all Tesla models have optional wheel upgrades, most of which are larger, affecting the performance specs. That’s why we included the smallest (standard) wheel option on the table. However, the max price includes the larger wheels.

The Model S below comes standard with 19″ Tempest Wheels, but to get the maximum price, we added 21″ Arachnid Wheels, as well as all available add-ons and most expensive customizations, like Ultra Red exterior paint, for example.

As you can see below, the 2025 Tesla Model S has two trim variants, each featuring the smaller wheels detailed above. For the maximum price to give a feel for the top-tier prices of this Tesla model and those below it, we added the cream interior, yoke steering, and the $8,000 full-self-driving capabilities.

Next is the Model Y, Tesla’s most popular model globally. Available in two trims, this Tesla model saw a recent 2025 refresh and still offers some of the lowest prices in the entire lineup. The maxed-out versions include 20″ Helix 2.0 Wheels, which slightly hurt the range. The high-end versions also include a tow hitch and, of course, full self-driving capabilities.

Tesla Cybertruck prices (May 2025)
Last and maybe least (if we’re talking overall sales) is the Tesla Cybertruck. So far, the sales have lived up to the hype of all the pre-orders, but the Cybertruck can be seen on public roads around the US. Available in three configurations of various ranges, towing, and speed capabilities, the Cybertruck starts in the middle of the Tesla pack for 2025 prices. However, its tri-motor Cyberbeast trim is near the top with the Plaid S and X models.

What about federal tax credits for Teslas?
Federal tax credits are still available for new Tesla BEV purchases as of May 2025, but they may be nixed by the end of the year, so it might be wise to buy that new EV before then. Here’s a list of all the current BEVs and PHEVs that qualify, including Tesla.
As of May 2025, used Tesla purchases still qualify for a credit of up to $4,000. Check it out!

While much of the Western world is still figuring out how to get more people on electric bikes, China just flipped a switch, and the results are staggering. Thanks to a generous nationwide trade-in program rolled out around six months ago, China has seen an explosive surge in electric bicycle sales, with over 8.47 million new e-bikes hitting the road in the first half of 2025 alone.
The program, which offers subsidies to riders who trade in their old, often outdated electric bikes for newer, safer, and more efficient models, has sparked a new e-bike sale boom in a country already dominated by e-bike travel. In major provinces like Jiangsu, Hebei, and Zhejiang, over one million new e-bikes were sold in each region in just six months. That’s a tidal wave of e-bike sales.
The incentives vary depending on location and the model being traded in, but for many consumers, the subsidies cover a substantial portion of a new e-bike’s price – enough to turn a “maybe next year” purchase into a “right now” upgrade. And these aren’t just budget bikes either. The program has driven demand for higher-quality models with better batteries, safer braking systems, and more reliable electronics, accelerating both adoption and innovation across the industry.
The move has proven successful in replacing the millions of older models with lower-quality lithium-ion batteries that had posed safety risks around the country. Instead, China has pushed for higher-quality lithium-ion batteries, a return to a newer generation of higher-performance AGM batteries, and even interesting new sodium-ion battery options.

Most e-bikes in China look more like what we’d consider seated scooters
According to China’s Ministry of Commerce, more than 8.4 million consumers have participated in the e-bike trade-in program so far, contributing to a sales increase of 643.5% year-over-year and more than doubling sales month-over-month. Meanwhile, production of new electric bicycles rose by nearly 28%, as manufacturers scrambled to meet demand. The sales boosts have already been seen in the financial reports of major industry players like NIU.
And it’s not just the big players benefiting – over 82,000 small independent e-bike dealers reported average sales increases of ¥302,000 (around US $42,000), giving a serious boost to local economies.
What’s particularly striking here is how fast this happened. The program was officially launched late last year as part of a broader effort to stimulate domestic consumption and phase out outdated vehicles and appliances. But while most analysts expected gradual growth, the e-bike sector responded much more quickly. In less than a year, the trade-in subsidies have reshaped the electric bicycle market, creating a consumer-driven boom that shows no signs of slowing.
For those of us watching from outside China, it’s hard not to wonder what might happen if other countries tried something similar. While most families in Chinese cities already own an electric bike and thus see this as an opportunity to trade it in for a newer model, Western countries like the US are still figuring out how to stimulate commuters into buying their first e-bike.
It’s too soon to know exactly how long the boom will last or whether the momentum will carry into 2026 and beyond. We’ve seen bicycle industry bubbles grow and burst before. But one thing’s clear: with the right incentives, even modest ones, it’s possible to ignite real, large-scale change. China just proved it with nearly 8.5 million new e-bikes to show for it.
And if you’re wondering what it looks like when a country takes electric micromobility seriously, this is it.

Today was the official start of racing at the Electrek Formula Sun Grand Prix 2025! There was a tremendous energy (and heat) on the ground at NCM Motorsports Park as nearly a dozen teams took to the track. Currently, as of writing, Stanford is ranked #1 in the SOV (Single-Occupant Vehicle) class with 68 registered laps. However, the fastest lap so far belongs to UC Berkeley, which clocked a 4:45 on the 3.15-mile track. That’s an average speed of just under 40 mph on nothing but solar energy. Not bad!
In the MOV (Multi-Occupant Vehicle) class, Polytechnique Montréal is narrowly ahead of Appalachian State by just 4 laps. At last year’s formula sun race, Polytechnique Montréal took first place overall in this class, and the team hopes to repeat that success. It’s still too early for prediction though, and anything can happen between now and the final day of racing on Saturday.
Congrats to the teams that made it on track today. We look forward to seeing even more out there tomorrow. In the meantime, here are some shots from today via the event’s wonderful photographer Cora Kennedy.

The numbers are in and they are all bad for Tesla fans – the company sold just 5,000 Cybertruck models in Q4 of 2025, and built some 30% more “other” vehicles than it delivered. It just gets worse and worse, on today’s tension-building episode of Quick Charge!
We’ve also got day 1 coverage of the 2025 Electrek Formula Sun Grand Prix, reports that the Tesla Optimus program is in chaos after its chief engineer jumps ship, and a look ahead at the fresh new Hyundai IONIQ 2 set to bow early next year, thanks to some battery specs from the Kia EV2.
