How is this company still so valuable.
I would buy literally any other electric car than a Tesla.
They have a huge head start. And their battery tech is top notch even if the rest of the vehicle is poorly build.
I'd personally never buy one either, for multiple reasons, but most people don't care/know about the shitty build quality, the shitty ai and the scummy locking features down remotely when you sell the car.
Is the battery tech that good though? Genuinely don’t know.
Seems other manufacturers have a huge head start in every other area of manufacturing cars and even if they still lag behind on battery tech, it won’t be long before they catch up on this one metric, whereas Tesla would have to catch up on every other metric.
It is. Their cooling / heating system along with the battery is top notch. Others are catching up though.
And yes in terms of fit and build quality most actual car manufacturers are ahead.
Of course you also have Ford an ICE manufacturer that's been building cars for centuries and still manages to produce shit with awful QA and constant recalls.
