Lolol same exact thing ๐คฃ
Elon hypes the shit out of them and misses a lot.
But the model 3, and now especially the next gen is a fantastic car.
Theranos was straight up fraud.
The Model 3 is an overpriced, shoddily-assembled car. The only reason it's the "affordable" one is because of the huge amount of tax incentives E-vehicles get. If you had to pay the actual cost of a Model 3 you would not be calling it a "fantastic car".
I know it's hard for the Tesla cultists to accept, rather like the Apple cultists before them, but Tesla products are not good products for the price.
You clearly haven't seen the new ones. The quality gap is minimal, the next gen interior is much more in line with its competition.
It finally made consumer reports good buy.
Likewise, it must be hard for the Musk haters (and anti Apple people!) to accept it when Tesla (or Apple) make a good product at good value. I live in Australia and get no discount to the price of the car and call it good value.
I think most people who talk Tesla up these days drive a 2002 Dodge Ram 2500 in between DUIs.
Literally 15 seconds to find.
I'm pretty sure the other states have similar incentives.
Fifteen. Seconds.
Your link also said the incentive on price has finished
Now look up Victoria. They have an extra tax to stop EV owners from dodging the excise on petrol
Where I am we have free registration for two years and the ability to drive in HOV lanes, which is a couple of hundred dollars of benefit
Australia is a Federation. Each state, and to some extent the two mainland territories, sets its own rules to a large extent. We have no federal incentives on EVs
Nice of you to accuse me of lying without looking for more than 15 seconds, arsehole
