Definitely Teslas became less attractive to a lot of people with Musks behavior in the last year. But also interest rates are up, and EV enthusiast market may be saturated, so now you have to win over just regular people.

I don't like Musk, but I am also under no illusion that CEOs of other major car companies are any better. They may just hide their opinions a little better than Musk.

The reality is that Tesla aren't very good cars from both reliability, price and range perspective. Musk has done a brilliant job hyping the car, but reality starts setting in. For example, FSD will likely remain in beta for years.

Agreed. Second most popular EV here in Australia is an MG. Which is a state owned CCP company. Is Musk worse than the CCP/Xi Jinping? Really?

Isn't that better? Even if it's not /good/, it seems /better/.

All EV enthusiasts were formerly normal people. A lot of EV buyers become enthused. I never used to really care about cars.
