Well the people that don’t want to go with (what I think) is the most widely available charging network, just because they don’t like what the founder tweets, are little tiny diaper babies. And we are the more fortunate that they aren’t the people setting policy.

It definitely shows off the anti-Tesla bias more than criticism of their cars. I can definitely see why their cars are critiqued (some like them, some don’t, which is fine), but their charging? Virtually everyone admitted that their charging experience and chargers themselves were vastly superior to their competitors;…

I mean this can’t really be a bad thing. If I remember correctly (and I often do not) in the wee early years of Tesla that was actually their intention. Build a car to show that electric vehicles would work for the majority of the population, then make bank off of the charging infrastructure and battery manufacturing.

Exactly. I can’t stand the guy, but I can bet nearly all of the accidents were still from the drivers not paying attention.

I also don't care for Musk, I'm not a Tesla stan, just saying those numbers aren't exactly damning 

This breaks down to 1 crash, per quarter, per state, and roughly 1 death per quarter country wide. That failure rate is substantially better than the human one... 

These stats are useless without being normalized for sales growth. If Company A made 5 widgets and 2 of them had incidents, and Company B made 100 widgets and 3 of them had incidents, yes, Company B had more incidents, but that is a super misleading way to report on it.

While the U.S. is home to the world’s fifth largest lithium reserves, it’s going to take years to build out a supply chain that both mines and processes the mineral for battery manufacturing. Honestly, it’s slow to start. Until all of that is organized and fixed, we’ll just have to sit back and watch the rest of…

Do me a favor: go into a Toyota dealership and ask them what the wait is for a Rav 4 Prime or Prius Prime.

“If Toyota started making EVs that pooped out at 10-12 years then they would lose their stellar, golden reputation.”

Building EV’s in a quantity that is enough to largely replace all ICE’s isn’t possible right now. Using batteries to make Hybrids and PHEV’s now and working on battery tech is a better idea. We can produce more Hybrid/PHEV’s to replace more ICE’s more quickly and reduce emission faster than going full EV.

Agree, BUT, Toyota came on strong with its hybrid tech. That was innovative and way ahead of its time.

A few moments in Microsoft Paint to remove the grab handle

Surprise, Jalopnik has negative comments about Tesla.  I should just cut and paste this comment for every article.

White House is still in the denial stage of their grief. They will get over it and the sooner they move to acceptance stage the better.

The United States federal government prefers CCS, too, probably because it’s preferred by virtually every other EV maker that isn’t Tesla

The size of CCS1 vs NACS is all you need to see

Except here, NACS is superior to CCS in the US. Your analogy to lightning is not accurate as lighting does not have the same technical performance as USB C and USB C is a mess as there are multiple standards under that umbrella. NACS is easier to handle, smaller and less prone to breakage. Combines L2 and DC Fast…

The switch to Tesla’s standard stateside is at odds with how things work in the European Union and much of the rest of the world. There, Tesla fits its cars with the CCS port, just like almost every other EV maker out there.

FYI you and Gizmodo don’t actually have to report it each time these guys’ market caps switch places temporarily.
