Tesla has officially ended production of its Model S and Model X vehicles. CEO Elon Musk announced the news on platform X on April 1st. The company is no longer accepting custom orders for these cars; buyers can now only purchase existing inventory from stock.
The Model S and Model X pages remain on Tesla's official websites in the US and China. However, when users try to place an order, they are redirected to the available inventory section, confirming the shift to selling only remaining stock.
For years, the Model S and Model X were considered key players in the electric vehicle segment, playing a crucial role in shaping Tesla's image. They set industry standards and helped the company establish its leadership position. But with the introduction of the more affordable Model 3 and Model Y, their market significance gradually declined.
Amid strategic shifts at the company, including plans to produce Optimus humanoid robots at the Fremont factory, Tesla's classic flagship models are finally bowing out. Their share of the company's total deliveries is now minimal: in 2025, the Model 3 and Model Y accounted for about 1.6 million deliveries, while combined sales of other models, including the Model S and Model X, totaled only around 50,000 vehicles.
Overall, this marks the end of an era for Tesla, as it focuses on mass-market models and new technological directions, leaving the Model S and Model X as an important chapter in the history of the electric vehicle market.
