Don't forget they also just push their batteries harder, which will cause longevity concerns over time. Like if you supercharge a tesla too much and now your battery gets limited.

See also, Porche Taycan vs Model S doing repeated 1/4 mile runs. The Tesla can't handle it at all, the Porsche barely slows down.

They didn't waste 5 years, they're just smart enough not to burn billions of dollars developing cars most people don't want at current prices. The ONLY reason so many models are coming out are fleet CO2 requirements in the EU and the US. Tesla has lost the developed BEV markets like Norway due to their poor quality and service, and the Etron is the top selling BEV SUV in Europe.

They haven't actually made a complete plan yet, it's an outline for a plan. And people hate Musk because he's a lying huckster, at least the ones that pay attention. Most people just hear that he's a genius and take it at face value, until he starts talking about anything in which you have expertise. Unless you're not particularly knowledgeable about anything, then I guess you could continue to think he's great.

LOL if you think Tesla will still be around in 2021. Audi e-tron killing their sales of the S, they lost $775MM last year, and they incinerate capital at a crazy rate (hence the $2+ billion raise earlier this year through a stock sale, which was picked up by idiots on Robinhood who are now all broke). They were always destined to go bankrupt once our cocaine fueled market corrected, the question was what would cause the correction (answer was COVID-19).
