Elon Musk’s backing of Donald Trump is hurting Tesla’s struggling EV business in Europe
German drugstore chain Rossmann said that Elon Musk's support for Donald Trump, the Republican candidate who calls climate change a hoax, goes against Tesla's mission—and it wants out.
You're viewing a single thread.
It's hurting in the US too. I am not a hard partisan but I would never buy a Tesla anymore because I'd be worried of being seen as making a political statement. I'm probably in the market for an electric vehicle in the next few years.
When I first started seeing Tesla cars on the road, I would think, "Must be nice. I can't wait for the price of Teslas to go down."
Now when I see them, I wonder if the driver regrets owning one.
Guy who owned the company I used to work for owned one when it was considered prestigious, and last year traded it in for a Genesis.
I've owned two Teslas and have previously raved about them to colleagues. My current Y is my last Tesla.
I've heard the Kia EV6 is amazing, so you might want to consider checking it out
I really want a VW ID Buzz as an all purpose vehicle.
I only want one if it comes in a Westfalia trim
It's weird that as a liberal, driving a Tesla is frowned upon.
Like, I get it, Musk is way more weird. But that there's an electric car that I can't buy for fear of being viewed as a conservative. That's kinda weird.
the word conservative is not what you think it means anymore. It had some meaning maybe 10 years ago, but now it's synonymous with another word
buying that electric car is basically proclaiming to the world that you support a white supremacist/facist so yeah lmao not that weird
