The same basic thing also happened in 2013 for the Model S, was investigated by the NHTSA after 2 fires, and Tesla quickly offered a fix for free.

I wonder what changed that made Tesla so unafraid of the regulators by 2026? ;)

I want these God forsaken machines to fail, but dont most cars massive depreciate after a year?

That's the sort of depreciation you'd see over five years, not one.

It least in Canada its actually on par. This source says 35% drop in the first year is normal. Again, not defending those hideous machines though. Im glad they are illegal in the EU and wish they were off the roads in Canada too (for safety reasons for instance).

we’re talking 100k to 40k here tho, 60% is nearly double 35%

Even I can math that math!

Spoilers: I pre-mathed it. It's dismal or very funny, depending on if your car is a Tesla: https://fuelarc.com/evs/the-top-3-fastest-depreciating-cars-in-2026-are-all-teslas/
