Ehz he didn’t built an automotive platform. Other people did that, he bought it and green it mostly through controversy and by now it’s quite clear that Tesla’s are quite shit to own and drive.
Teslas are awesome to own and drive. It’s an annoying checklist that takes an hour when you first get the car to make sure your car isn’t one of the ones with the bad panels, doors that don’t close nicely, etc., But you can decline the car if it has any of those things, or they fix it right away. Once you are through that part it’s really a great vehicle, especially if you have a charger at home. Gad stations are super inconvenient if you think about it.

By whose metric? Tesla owners have a 97% approval rating. I know tons of people that drive Teslas and they have zero maintenance other than tires and windshield wiper fluid. Hate on Elon all you want, but to assume the cars are shit because he is shit is just juvenile.
I mean I will readily accept that the internet is a fickle place and nothing is ever as black and white as it would seem but there has been a metric fucktonne of examples lately for why Teslas are just straight up bad cars. Cheap materials, poorly wired electronics, broken features, etc.
Like just casually scroll through any car subreddit or other online forum and you’ll see people recording their Teslas just breaking down.
My BIL just bought one, gas is around $6/gallon in Hawaii and there is basically no mass transport. He tried to buy another EV but there was a 6-8 month wait-list. He loves the car, it is what it is. QC has improved over the past few years.
Also, anytime when “97%” of people agree on something it’s the same as “97% of people voted for Putin, they all love him!” and you know it’s pulled out of some ass or another

Until you get into a fender bender. I’ve seen a few too many reports of people having to spend thousands for spare parts that should be hundreds top.

Would love to know where you got the 97% approval rating.
His ass

Zero maintenance is a bold claim. They have repair people that go to your house to replace parts when they break.
I didn’t claim anything about zero maintenance? Lol
The comment above yours did I meant to click on their comment but did yours instead.
I assume the cars are shit because they spontaneously combust.
