Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

And yet the stock broke a new record this week.
Waiting for the other shoe to drop. I shorted it since i believed dropped sale would actually bring them back to earth. But clearly it has turned into some meme-stock.
Good luck with your gamble
The stock price and vehicle sales are not directly linked. Tesla is a meme stock. It’s a house of cards thy keep lying about
When he gets Farage elected it will get better for him (worse for us) and he can move on to the AfD
Perhaps it helps that their cars are still better than the competition.
Mechanically, they're shockingly bad. I've spoken to mechanics that tell of some serious cost cutting when it comes to suspension and their attachments.
New cars (3 years) can essentially fall apart at the wheels.
The three people I know with Teslurs had to have the car replaced under the 48 month lease. That's why these cars are practically free used after warranty. They now shit parts and entire frames out using a Gigapress.
Tesla was a tech company making cars. It's like buying a car from MicroSoft.
Yeah, the weight + acceleration + mechanics quality combo isn't great especially if you accelerate like a race driver. Which most new owners will for awhile certainly.
I got some of those parts replaced in warranty just recently. Interesting to see if the same problems will come back.
It's possible that my opinion on this changes when warranty expires and we'll see how the car really does long term. But so far it's so much better than any competitor car we've tried that it's not even close.
Hyundai EVs are so much better than Tesla
We test drove a couple Ioniqs and nope. They are pretty good, perhaps good enough to get if you don't already own a Tesla -- but not good enough to warrant the hassle and cost of changing. Not better than Tesla in any meaningful way, and worse in a couple of ways: the general UX of the car and boot size for instance.
