The idea that China is just "providing way better cars at much cheaper prices" ignores why that's happening. China massively subsidizes its EV industry - they're practically state-owned - while blocking foreign competition in its own market. On top of that, a significant portion of China's EV supply chain, especially for batteries, relies on forced labor, particularly from Uyghur labor camps. That's a big part of why those cars are so cheap.Facts.
Also, rural areas in many red states do not even have the EV infrastructure needed to make a Tesla a smart choice for people. City Dwellers are the ones for whom an EV makes sense. But out in the country you would be worried about finding a charging station and would also need to spend extra money installing a charging station at home. A lot of red state rural voters are not currently able to do this. And I do not think that wealth republican voters are enough to make up the difference. Furthermore, he is facing serious competition from other brands, if you have a family of four or more people the Rivian RS1 makes more sense, if you want performance in a sedan, a Lucid makes more sense, if you want to save money, a KIA/Hyundai makes more sense. On top of that you have the Mustang Mach E, the Cadillac Lyriq and more, all decent options as well. In Europe and Asia, China is providing way better cars at much cheaper prices and he cannot compete with those. He is going to create a situation where he primarily depends on government subsidies just like he does with Starlink and SpaceX.
This just in
These people who were crying when Trump got elected who still drive Teslas are the biggest pieces of shyt in the known universe today.
Yeah he’s basically guaranteed Space X contracts are getting cancelled (ironically Musk style) and Europe will probably have their own Starlink available by then.Hasn't every space x launch been a catastrophic failure?it's only a matter of time until that's completely worthless. When the gov stops subsidizing it.
that doesn't surprise me. the people who find Must acceptable don't like electric cars. unless magats get it in their thick skulls that buying a used telsa is their patriotic duty, there won't be many buyers for what these suckers are selling.They're struggling to offload them, as the resale value loss is extreme.

Tesla owners offloading their cars over Elon Musk backlash are in for a nasty surprise
Resale values have collapsed in recent years, with the average price of a used Tesla now $10,000 less than that of a non-Tesla electric car.www.businessinsider.com
