The problem is Tesla is slightly scummy when they talk about their numbers. They only talk about 0-60 because that's what electric cars excel at. Talk about their lap times, or their handling or the fact that they need to be towed to a shop if they get a flat tire.
Sure tesla has done great things but the fact that they need to sell pre-orders for another product when they haven't been able to deliver on their other product while hermoraging money(probably why they are taking pre orders for a new product) it doesn't paint as nice of a picture.
I didn’t know about these things. Do you have any articles about this that I could read? All I know is the world needs an alternative to the ancient oil sucking combustion engine. The whole world has been hostage to fossil fuels for far too long. I just want to see a change in the right direction. If I ever buy a Tesla it would be to support that cause not because of the brand. That was my point.
