The data found about 68 per cent of car shoppers in 2022 who did not own an EV showed an intent to purchase one, but that dropped to 56 per cent this year.

The Tesla brand has become distasteful due to the owner's antics, and no other carmaker builds an EV that's capable of long range travel due to a lack of quick charge capability and infrastructure.

edit: "the owners" meaning the person who owns the company, ie Elon, not the people who bought the cars. Apostrophe added for clarity.

Well, that, and Musk's been torpedoing his own reputation by opening that mouth of his more and more these last few years. Tesla owners always though he was one of them, but he's been proving them wrong more and more every time he opens that mouth of his, so it's no surprise that people who are pro-EVs are seriously thinking about ditching Teslas.

Yeah, that's what I meant.
