According to Sawyer Merritt on Twitter, Tesla has eliminated the $3,000 down payment on U.S. Model Y leases, making entry costs significantly lower while keeping the monthly payment at $479. Additionally, all new leases now come with a free upgrade—either an interior or exterior feature. This move leverages AI-powered dynamic pricing and personalized incentives, demonstrating Tesla's use of artificial intelligence to optimize customer acquisition and maximize EV adoption. These innovations present new business opportunities for AI-driven automotive pricing models and customer experience platforms. (Source: Sawyer Merritt, Twitter)
