We all know what’s going to happen, Elon just going to get a “government contract”, where he can make it so that teslas will be the main vehicle manufacturer for government.

Ironically, the EV’s suck and are for commies crowd are now lauding Tesla as the best vehicle on the market

Musk aside, Tesla cars have always been pretty shoddy

I would like a Chinese EV, but the capitalists are enforcing protectionism.

You can fellate Winnie the Pooh on your own time. It comes with its own whole set of problems.

Edit: Come at me tankies. You're morons for giving a single dollar to the CCP.

I would too, but you have to understand why the USA is blocking these cars from coming in. The cost of these cheap EVs are not based off of supply and demand. Its not even this cheap because of effectiveness or efficiencies. Its from the CCP subsidies. The CCP wants to dump on the competition in efforts to kill off anyone making a car, then start jacking up the price after they have market share.

I'm also pretty sure their security / safety standards are pure ass. I barely trust our automakers, I sure as shit don't trust the fucking CCP

[–] jaschen@lemm.ee 2 points 5 hours ago

I live in Taiwan and we call those China made cars tofu cars. Their domestic cars are terrible. So many of them are going out of business because the the CCP lowered down the subsidies.

I won't be caught dead in one.

its not the death of the electric car. Its the death of a bad one.

Then explain why I see them everywhere. People are just way too late on finding out about Elons true colors
