minus-squareTgo_up@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·13 days agoNow that no EVs get subsidies they’ll have to compete directly with ICE cars which is going to be tricky in the US I think. I’m going to be very surprised if tesla sales won’t suffer in the US. Maybe not as much as legacy OEM EVs though.
minus-squareboonhet@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·12 days agoTesla sales should start suffering in Europe too. We have many other EVs to choose from and recently, BYD has even become an option. Price and quality wise I would expect it to compete with Tesla while the German brands make slightly nicer vehicles.
