The actual reason for this price drop is not just because of Tesla being a tech company but because tech companies operate on large margins. An iPhone costs $300 to make and sells for $1000. Typically, the car industry has run on such slim margins because of competition and lack of innovation. Tesla spent a lot of time and effort innovating on production costs ("the machine that builds the machine"), so now they are reaping those rewards by having flexible pricing. Again, it has nothing to do with batteries and electric motors, but more with Tesla's approach to the market.
in comparison, a tesla is a battery with wheels.
tesla owns a huge part of their battery vertical, they reap the rewards as batteries get cheaper to produce. batteries are cheaper day after day if you own the vertical. period.
but yes they also invested a lot of money into the factories and gigacast that make the metal frames as well.
tesla is apple if apple released a 1 new iphone every 8 years instead of every year.
for families who qualify for the fed tax income limit the model X is possibly one of the greatest family vehicles possible though at $72000. best crash rating possible.
