That's a beautiful argument. I will be sure to use it in the future.
So, reducing the Model X price by $40,000 (from $120,000 to $80,000) and thus making it qualify for another $7,500 in tax credit doesn't make it more affordable for those who couldn't pay $120,000 for it, right? RIGHT? Let's...
Because they have very little expertise in EVs. I would never claim that Tesla could make a competitive ICE truck, as it has no expertise in making ICE vehicles.
Tesla never made a small car before it made the Model 3 (the original Roadster was based on the Lotus platform) and neither did Tesla...
If that is the case and not just Muskās BS, then how can anyone even claim that Tesla canāt make a better truck than the R1T at a lower price. You canāt really be on both sides of this fence. Choose one side and argue that point.
Besides the body, everything else will be reused. The tech that makes Tesla electric motors the most powerful at the same efficiency or more efficient at the same power. The battery management. The software. The regen. The lithium for the batteries that they have secured contracts on at lower...
We have about 6 weeks before we know the prices. Yes, I think the CyberTruck will cost $20,000 less than the comparable R1. Letās wait and see.
The accusation of me moving the goalposts is ridiculous.
As for why I think Tesla can make the CyberTruck cheaper than anyone else, they have...
Anyone would charge more if they could get away with. Thatās called capitalism.
Tesla has increased the number of vehicles itās has manufactured and sold per year by fourfold in two years. What the hell does the market share matter? It matters not!
Apple has had a small smartphone market...
Unreal. Tesla is not lowering prices because its market share is dropping. Itās lowering its prices because its production output is increasing YoY and it needs to tap into the lower-income clientele to continue to grow. Notwithstanding, itās continuing to be profitable even with these dramatic...
Are you not seeing that Rivian is unprofitable and has no clear path to profitability without raising prices even further? Are you not seing how dramatically Tesla was able to lower their prices on 2023? The Model X prices were slashed by $40,000 (literally 33%) BEFORE factoring in the Federal...
My fanatical lunacy? LOL. I have reservation for half a dozen of EVs from different manufacturers, and I also own both non-Tesla and Tesla and travel in both. I compare and form educated opinions.
Like I said, you are a cultist of a rival cult. A gangster is a gangster regardless of the gang he...
I wonder if you can even see the irony in the text I quoted above. This is literally being blind about what Rivian has been doing from the get-go and blaming Tesla for allegedly doing this with the CyberTruck.
I am not a Tesla fanboi, but you are a character similar to the quintessential Tesla fanboi, except you are a member of a rival cult. To claim you had no issues charging at CCS DC chargers while having put 46k on long road trips tells me one thing and one thing only: you are full of āit. Iāve...
Do you have an EV? Have you attempted long road trips in one - if you own one? You wouldnāt be asking this question if you actually traveled on a non-Tesla EV. You would know the answer.
