I work on cars. Teslas are the biggest pieces of shit I've ever seen recently. Horrible quality issues. Thin paint, thin sheet metal, misaligned panels, constant computer glitching, corrosion issues, and a horrible parts supply network. If your $100k iPad goes in the shop don't expect to have it back for a month or more. If you want an electric car, Hyundai makes a damn good one at half the price.
VW has a solution that makes the most sense. Solar bio fuels.
Regardless, cars are demonized because they're easy targets. Destruction of ecology, suburban sprawl, plastic waste, monocropped agriculture and meat, etc. have a much larger impact on the environment as a whole than bubba's V8 truck ever did.

i've been telling people if they wanna go for a battery EV, and they want a Tesla, they should wait around 5 more years at least.
they've been buying Teslas this last year - this year anyway
their reasoning is, and i quote "it's supposed to be better than old cars"
teslas are better for people with lots of money to burn. they dont make the financial sense for anyone without a spare 30k lying around.
you'll be happy to know in australia the people i've been talking about would've had to pay upwards of $90k
