What happened to the last affordable Production Tesla? ..you know, that Model S with the 45KWh battery . . that no one bought.
They never marketed the Model S, with any size battery capacity as "affordable." The 40 kWh version of the Model S was envisioned as an "entry-level" Model S, and the Model S marketing is as a "premium sedan." "Affordable" will (may) be the Model 3. TBD

The 40 kWh version of the S apparently died in the womb due to lack of demand.
