"Electric Vehicles are Actually Worse for the Environment than Internal Combustion Cars"

[davsel]

Ten years from now you'll wish you had bought in at ~$300 per share.

Ten years from now, Tesla will be the Delorean of the 21st Century.

You've previously stated as "fact" that no-one comes close to Tesla in EV technology. The true fact is that all the major manufactures are heavily invested in it and once they start selling, Tesla will be quickly crushed - as they have been barely hanging on for years - propped up by subsidies and wealthy morons. First, Tesla could not deliver on orders (supply side lies) Now, they can't get enough interest and are dropping prices (Demand side lies). They're closing dealerships and selling online Tesla has run itself into the ground as a ponzi cult and 10 years from now I will look back and giggle.

That Tesla roadster would be sweet!

This is your dream Tesla?



Ooof.

...and this looks like a cheap plastic toy?



Or this?



This one looks alright too:



This also doesn't suck:

2011 Roadster 2.5?

I think it's the grill vs sheet of plastic.
I'm not arguing the specs, just the look. Geesh, stop being so defensive.

Put those specs in a yugo for $5k, and I still wouldn't buy it because of how it looks.

$200k is even further out of reach on that last one. It looks better, but still has that lack of grill that just doesnt look right to me.

I've heard a few people complain about the lack of a grill. I wondered if it'd attract more buyers with a false grill like the crap they put on Mustangs. What do you think? I think even a grill that goes to just black plastic would be convincing enough.

It would be nice if the front end was at least finished...in some way. Makes the boring Model 3 look even worse.

[Irving]

I think it won't look weird after a while, but it sure is a change to us now.

[skoodge]

They just announced the car that will sell 500k units worldwide this year...

Isn't that the tweet that Musk is most recently in trouble for?

Indeed. Jer has also repeated the 7,000 vehicle per week number that was also walked back to 'by the end of the year'. I also read an assertion that the layoffs were assembly workers being replaced by further automation, yet Tesla stated that the layoffs were not assembly personnel.

...but somebody was on a roll.

I wasn't being defensive I just don't understand why someone would like the look of that first orange car better than the Model S pictures I posted. But, to each his own.

That orange one was the original Tesla Roadster from 2008.

The front is just a full bumper cover since they don't need airflow like an ICE vehicle does.
