​Tesla is holding an Investor Day event at its Texas plant on Wednesday, where a series of announcements about the Cybertruck and Roadster, more affordable electric vehicles and autonomous cars are expected.

At the megafactory in Austin, Elon Musk will present to investors and the general public the third “master plan” for Tesla, the first two were in 2006 and 2016, respectively.

What could Musk announce? There’s talk of a “3rd generation” plan to produce electric cars priced between $25,000 and $30,000, rather than the $40,000-plus that Tesla’s “entry-level” cars currently cost. If such electric cars will be launched, then for autonomous taxi fleets.

Musk has long promised an efficient platform that would allow the production of all-electric models at much lower prices than the Model 3. There will also be smaller cars.

The ideal would be a Tesla, which costs 25 thousand dollars, but it is difficult to reach such a low level, especially since cars have risen in price by several thousand dollars on average in recent years. It’s also true that Tesla has announced price cuts in Europe and the US, but Tesla is still a long way from sub-$30,000.

Musk is also expected to announce plans to ramp up production, with one of the more outlandish figures being to reach 20 million cars by 2030. It seems unlikely, but production of a few million could reach the end of the decade. The president of Mexico recently announced that Tesla will open a billion-dollar factory in the North American country.

Production specifics for the delayed Cybertruck model are expected to be announced. Details may also be announced about the new Roadster, Tesla’s sportiest model, which will cost around $200,000 and boast fantastic acceleration (less than 2 seconds from 0 to 100 km/h).

The promises for this model are that it could have a huge 200kWh battery and a range of over 900km.
