The disapproval of Elon Musk is the top reason Tesla Model 3 owners are selling their electric vehicles and going for another brand, according to a new survey of 5,000 Model 3 owners.
Yeah, I get the point that Elon isn’t Tesla, etc. At the same time, at least for some owners, owning a Tesla isn’t just about just owning an EV, it’s about virtue signalling. And having the Tesla brand linked to Elon means that it’s harder to do this.
At the same time, rightly or wrongly, some people buy Teslas cos they’re the EV, and they get to show what great environmentalists they are (and that they have money haha).
That card got burned out years ago. Anyone who thinks a Tesla makes them look good, needs to join the guys still holding on to their Ed Hardy collection.

“I have money and want to spend it on the world’s most recalled car, let alone EV. I’m doing my part!”
From one point of view, yes.
