They already basically shave $15 million on the cheaper Vulcain 2.1, if they can (big if) reach 9-10 launches a year like they claim they could maybe reach 130 million (2020 usd) for an A64. I'm not sure A62 will ever go much lower however, they're probably going to milk the institutional contracts that will launch on it.

At least CNES believes that A6 even at full production rate will never go below 130 million usd (cost is to GTO), note that 2020-2021 includes A5 ESA EGAS subsidies, which won't be applied for A6, since the whole point of A6 is to replace A5 and Soyuz while stopping needing EGAS subsidies.
