This won't help Elon's drug addiction problem. Tesla is a pariah brand.

Tesla’s only hope to turn this around is to replace their CEO.

Tesla's sales in Europe fell 49% in April from a year earlier, despite battery-electric sales rising by 27.8%, as the US EV maker's upgrade of its Model Y shows little sign of improving the brand's tarnished image in the region.

Overall car sales in the region remained roughly consistent with last year, falling just 0.3%, with the strongest sales growth coming from electric and plug-in hybrid cars, data by the European Automobile Manufacturers Association (ACEA) showed.

Tesla's sales in Europe continue to drop, reflecting a shift away from the brand as Chinese competition strengthens and some protest against Elon Musk's political views.

Good.

Musk has shown that he's an insufferable asshole and people are deciding to not buy his products.

It doesn't help that the Cybertruck isn't even allowed to be sold or even driven in the UK as its considered completely unroadworthy.

I would love to see someone try to park that stupid thing on a London or Paris street.
 
I don't understand the left's celebration of the demise of a person who has worked hard to provide world-changing products and concepts;

The left aren't the only ones capable of recognizing a destructive ****er when they see one. DoGE was and is an abomination that only benefits Lord Taco, Musk, and the monied elites.

He showed that when he bought Twitter and instantly fired people without even looking at what they did so ended up needing to rehire a bunch.

Hmm okay. Honestly until the technology advances I would only buy a hybrid.

Yea, when I retire in the next couple of years. The new RAV 4s are now all hybrid. I wouldn't mind a new Prius, they look a lot better with the redesign. I don't have to ferry various travel soccer players to practice and games anymore.
 
I think the Tesla saloons are pretty decent, it's just the Cybertruck that's a total disaster.

The thing isn't even a good off roader as it gets constantly humiliated by other offroaders which cost a third of the money.

Currently in a Nissan Rogue I am very pleased with, but if I survive it my next car is going to be a hybrid.
