Tesla just wrapped up the final deliveries of the Model S and Model X in a low-key yet emotional event at Fremont. Over 750,000 units sold across both models, and this was it—no more production.
The Last Event Unfolds
The stream started late, as Tesla events often do, with looping footage and buffering on X. Once it kicked off, Elon joined Lars and others on stage for a quick retrospective. They highlighted how the Model S broke the perception that electric cars were slow or boring, and how the Model X added falcon doors and serious utility. Then came the handovers: special signature red vehicles with white interiors went to lucky owners, complete with photos alongside Elon.
This was the Tesla Model S X last event, plain and simple. No big surprises like a Roadster reveal, just a clean closeout to make room for Optimus robots.
What This Means for Owners
With the Model S X discontinued, existing cars are already seeing price bumps in the used market. Recent data shows 2022 Model X values up 8% year-over-year, and demand remains strong for the last new examples. If you're considering one, now is the moment—inventory is drying up fast.
I covered the early signals of this shift in a previous post about Tesla removing Model S and X from the website, and the trend has only accelerated since.
Bottom Line
The Tesla final Model S delivery closes a chapter that redefined what an EV could be. Production ends, but the impact on the industry stays. For current owners, your cars just became even more special. For those on the fence, the window to grab a fresh one is officially closed.
