Car companies like Honda, BMW, and Hyundai are banding together to build an EV-charging network bigger than Tesla’s Supercharger empire::Tesla has been building out its Supercharger network for over a decade. Now legacy car companies are taking a page from Elon Musk’s playbook.
Correct. Tesla will get destroyed in the future when other car companies have fully stepped up. Nobody is buying a shitty made Tesla over BMW or Mercedes or even Hyundai or Kia at this point. The Hyundai iconic 5 N and Kia ev6 or gt6 slaps Tesla In build quality and performance to boot.
Assuming that consumers will be rational is a bit premature.
Tesla wants to position itself as the Apple of cars, and it’s largely succeeded. Most techies or people more in the know might be quick to dismiss them, but I don’t think that’s the opinion shared by the public at large.
There’s still a wait time for pretty much any new Tesla
Exactly. I don’t need a new car now, but when I do in a few years, it’ll definitely be an EV (I have solar panels on my roof, so it’s a total no-brainer). Five years ago, it would’ve been a Tesla, but now, that Mustang Mach looks awfully compelling.
