Tesla just quietly removed its most affordable Model 3 from the US lineup on its website. Analyst Dan Ives called the shift strategic, as Tesla's focus in the US remains on the Model Y. AdvertisementTesla just silently killed its most affordable version of the Model 3 sedan in the US — a good move, one bullish analyst told Business Insider. Now, the cheapest Tesla car is the Model 3 Long Range Rear-Wheel Drive, priced at $42,490. Dan Ives, an analyst at Wedbush and a longtime Tesla bull, told Business Insider that the discontinuation is "a smart strategic move" signaling a greater focus on the Long Range Model 3.

JPMorgan thinks EVgo's business model of both owning and operating its fast electric vehicle chargers can send the stock soaring. EVgo stock has climbed roughly 10% in 2024, but it's been a choppy ride higher. Electric vehicle-related stocks have been under pressure for most of the year thanks to dimming consumer demand for EVs. "Unlike hardware-software peers, EVgo's fast charging owner-operator model has been scaling well with higher utilization and charge rates in the current muted EV environment," Peterson said. LSEG data shows that, of the 12 analysts covering the stock, seven have a buy or strong buy rating, while the rest rate it as a hold.
