Teslas just don’t drive better than any other EV. Yes, the first time i got in a tesla i was floored, but it was also the first time i ever sat in any EV. After seeing a handful of other EVs, i now realize tesla isn’t anything special at all, all the EVs have that smooth electric motor feel.
They’re going to be a medium sized car maker, like mercedes or bmw. They have no chance at selling more cars than toyota or gm to justify the insane market cap.
For as shitty as tesla as a whole are:
The REALLY old OG teslas (maybe even pre-“Roadster”?) were genuinely insane to drive. Their acceleration was through the roof (since you pretty much have near instantaneous acceleration with electric motors… sort of) and there was little software to balance that out. My uncle had one and it was frigging amazing.
But after the first couple versions (and probably fatalities?) that got toned the hell down and the goal became to mimic driving an ICE. So now you just have a shitty quality car that drives like any other one. Sure it is quieter (unless your frame makes noise at speed) and has slightly higher acceleration, but it is “not that different” by design.
