The Model Y sells for less than the average new car in the United States, and that is before the $7500 federal tax credit https://cbsnews.com/news/tesla-drops-price-model-y-suv-under-average-cost-us-vehicle/ Rare earths are not used in EV batteries, it's the motors. Tesla has minimized the usage of rare earth and is eliminating the use of rare earth entirely https://electrek.co/2023/03/01/tesla-is-going-back-to-ev-motors-with-no-rare-earth-elements/
