During the Q4 2025 Earnings Call in January, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.teslarati.com\/tesla-brings-closure-flagship-sentimental-model-s-model-x\/\">Musk said the two cars deserved an &#8220;honorable discharge&#8221;<\/a> for what they have done for the company.<\/p>\n<p>The long-running programs are primarily being removed so that manufacturing lines can be repurposed for high-volume manufacturing of the Optimus humanoid robot. Tesla is targeting a production rate of up to one million units each year.<\/p>\n<p>The Model S and Model X being removed from Tesla&#8217;s plans is a tough choice, but it was one that was written on the wall. Sales of these premium models have declined sharply in recent years, and even with Plaid configurations that are performance-forward, the company still has had trouble getting them sold.<\/p>\n<p>In 2025, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.teslarati.com\/tesla-decision-future-its-flagship-model-s-model-x\/\">the Model S and Model X together accounted for roughly 3 percent<\/a> of Tesla\u2019s global deliveries, down significantly from prior periods as competition intensified in the luxury EV segment and buyers shifted toward more affordable options like the Model 3 and Model Y.<\/p>\n<p>The Model S saw sales drop over 50 percent year-over-year in some quarters, while the Model X faced similar pressures from rivals, including the Rivian R1S and BMW iX.<\/p>\n<p>Despite their dwindling volume, the Model S and Model X remain technological showcases. The Plaid variants deliver blistering acceleration, advanced Full Self-Driving capability, and luxurious interiors.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"css-1jxf684 r-bcqeeo r-1ttztb7 r-qvutc0 r-poiln3 r-1adg3ll r-1g7jtus r-1x3r274\"><span class=\"css-1jxf684 r-bcqeeo r-1ttztb7 r-qvutc0 r-poiln3\"><span class=\"css-1jxf684 r-bcqeeo r-1ttztb7 r-qvutc0 r-poiln3 r-1x3r274\">The phase-out paves the way for Tesla\u2019s strategic pivot toward autonomy, robotics, and higher-volume vehicles.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"mNoZm42NQc\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.teslarati.com\/tesla-brings-closure-flagship-sentimental-model-s-model-x\/\">Tesla brings closure to flagship &#8216;sentimental&#8217; models, Musk confirms<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; visibility: hidden;\" title=\"&#8220;Tesla brings closure to flagship &#8216;sentimental&#8217; models, Musk confirms&#8221; &#8212; TESLARATI\" src=\"https:\/\/www.teslarati.com\/tesla-brings-closure-flagship-sentimental-model-s-model-x\/embed\/#?secret=HoWRKLE8bU#?secret=mNoZm42NQc\" data-secret=\"mNoZm42NQc\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"css-1jxf684 r-bcqeeo r-1ttztb7 r-qvutc0 r-poiln3 r-1adg3ll r-1g7jtus r-1x3r274\"><span class=\"css-1jxf684 r-bcqeeo r-1ttztb7 r-qvutc0 r-poiln3\"><span class=\"css-1jxf684 r-bcqeeo r-1ttztb7 r-qvutc0 r-poiln3 r-1x3r274\">Fremont will continue producing the refreshed Model 3 and Model Y, ensuring the factory remains a key automotive hub while expanding into robotics. Tesla has stated that the shift is not expected to result in job losses and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.teslarati.com\/tesla-xai-digital-optimus-explained\/\">could increase headcount as Optimus production ramps up<\/a>.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"css-1jxf684 r-bcqeeo r-1ttztb7 r-qvutc0 r-poiln3 r-1adg3ll r-1g7jtus r-1x3r274\"><span class=\"css-1jxf684 r-bcqeeo r-1ttztb7 r-qvutc0 r-poiln3\"><span class=\"css-1jxf684 r-bcqeeo r-1ttztb7 r-qvutc0 r-poiln3 r-1x3r274\">For Tesla fans, the sunset represents a bittersweet moment. The Model S, introduced in 2012, proved EVs could compete with luxury sedans, while the Falcon-wing-door Model X set new standards for family haulers. Owners can expect continued software support and service for years to come.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Many fans have pushed for the Model X to hang around due to its appeal for families.<\/p>\n<p>With the two cars heading out, Tesla&#8217;s priority now becomes its future products, especially that of the Optimus robot, which is the main reason for the S\/X platform&#8217;s conclusion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the latest move to show Tesla is planning to eliminate the Model S and Model X from production, the company&#8217;s Korean arm has
