I find it so weird that the guy at the top of the company factors into what car people want to drive. Even more so after the fact, he already got the sale from these people.
Elon Musk’s cult of personality and fake bullshittery was the only reason to ever buy a Tesla in the first place.
Now that he is alienating his core environmental cult of personality, he is now catering to right wing dudes like DeSantis. Presumably because the far right is easier to trick than the old environmental faction.
Surprise surprise, the environmentalists don’t like that.
No reasonable person would overbuy a $50,000 car with as crappy quality, non-functioning windshield wipers or crappy cruise control that loses features every year. (What has 10 years of advancements gotten Tesla? Answer: they lost RADAR and now also lost Ultrasonics this year)
This vehicle gets crappier and more overpriced each year, while competitors advance forward. Today, there is no reason to buy a Tesla over a Mach E or RAV4 Prime.
The survey also found that 87% of Model 3 owners are considering a Tesla for their next vehicles.
That kind of brand loyalty is unheard of. Especially for cars. Given Tesla’s parabolic sales, anyone selling their Tesla because of Musk is in the extreme minority. All of them frequent Lemmy and Reddit.

Personally I think the new electric Hyundai looks really cool. I also agree with your point
Hyundai’s Augmented Reality lane assist looks pretty high tech.
I think I want a heads up display, but I don’t need it to be that over-engineered augmented reality stuff (even if it does look really cool).

It doesn’t.
