The Equinox EV starts at a lower price than the cheapest Tesla and even the ID.4 starts at about the same price as the lowest-priced Tesla , going by MSRPs anyway (there don’t seem to be base models of the Equinox near me, but the ones on the lot are also being discounted, apparently).

I suspect you’re right, and the nostalgia crowd.  It’s New Beetle part 2.

And how much will VW dealers mark these up above MSRP?

So, the plus side is it looks pretty nice and is well equipped even at the base model.

Well the GOP has been falsely accusing the government of buying tons of EVs to prop up sales numbers, so naturally they would do that exact thing if they regain power. It’s their standard playbook to accuse the other side of doing the things they have done or will do.

Fleet sales are a tried and true method for US automakers to keep old and stale models in production.

Muskrat is simply scared of brown immigrants and trans people and paying taxes.  There’s nothing more complicated going on.

I think it’s Epstein related. He’s got documented ties to Epstein and Maxwell and he knows that the Great Orange Satan will bury any evidence.

This incalculably hurt Tesla more than it accomplished anything else. They are truly rolling maga hats at this point.

Once they depreciate it becomes a more palatable option. 

Nothing, we already bought two EVs - one affordable (a $26k Bolt) for my long daily commute and a daily/roadtrip for my wife (ID.4). We are also lucky to have a two car detached garage which we ran a new subpanel out to install a couple ClipperCreek 32A EVSEs. I think there are a lot of people out there that could…

Price.

Iterative tests costing billions, polluting low earth orbit with their Starlink junk, and instead of designing something competently, they pull things out of a bag, and “test” those, further polluting. Not to mention their Boca launch site which is a shitshow in itself.

Look it up how they’ve failed to actually make it cheaper for NASA and how they’ve missed just about any deadline and technical compencency to make it to the moon.

It all goes back to him being forced to buy it for far more then it was worth because he’s an idiot. It wasn’t making enough revenue to cover the debt payments he had to take on to finance it before he started screwing it up. Now it’s just money down the drain at an accelerated velocity. I can’t see how this lawsuit…

My knowledge of law is pitiful at best, so maybe there’s something to the Twitter lawsuit. But “illegal boycott” is my new favorite phrase, since no is required to give your company money. Surely suing advertisers (less than a year after telling them to “go fuck themselves” if they didn’t want to use Twitter) will…

I’m a teacher and I’m still waiting for the iPad to revolutionize education.

“AI is slumping?... Tesla is a car company. Tesla has always been a car company.”

The bigger takeaway is how does this guy get away with blurring the lines between his publically listed company and his private ventures? SEC has put people in jail for less.

Wall Street is finally figuring out that all AI’s today are dumber than rocks, and that comparison is an insult to rocks.
