Its actually not Tesla's fault. BYD and other Chinese electric car manufacturers are really giving him a serious run for his money.
Those car companies in china are producing electric cars at a rate that outpace total global demand of electric cars. They plan to flood the world with cheap electric cars by making sure supply outstrip demand, and on the long term run others like Tesla out of the market.

Tesla also has to follow similar plan by producing far beyond the demand for his cars and hopefully reduce the price. Otherwise Tesla will become history like Nokia or Motorola.

These woods at the background... Can't help but wonder the coolness therein,the different kinds of bird chirps renting the air there,squirrels hopping from tree to tree,beetles,esp the variegated species and brightly colored butterflies hovering all around that layout,... However I shudder at the different species of serpents most likely slithering up n down those slender trunks

Asian technologies focus on HIGH QUALITY AND LOW COST. While the westerners mostly do the original research and inventions, Asians take advantage of the findings more.

I'm surprised to learn that Tesla has thousands of unsold cars sitting in warehouses while the typical wait time for a Tesla order averages around six months. Some resellers buy these cars to cater to customers who can't wait that long.

Anyway, President Biden recently increased taxes on Chinese electric cars and semiconductors to safeguard American companies like Tesla. This move aims to support American dominance in the global electric car market, where the U.S. accounts for 50% of all purchases.

It’s not really the technology that’s the problem

It’s Elon. He’s a slowpoke and I’m glad people have started to see him for who he really is

I knew Tesla would encounter this problem down the line with their minimalistic designs.
The likes of Audi and Mercedes benz are producing exquisite designs for their EV. Even, Nissan and kia are going above and beyond. The Chinese Byd and Nio are producing at scale and very cheap. But the mad man is all about autonomous driving which is not going to sit well with regulators and drivers in general.

The only way he could capture the market altogether is to find a way to improve the range to at least 600 miles on a single charge, then the range anxiety would be banished. If not, Tesla is going to go extinct. Don't get me started on the cybertruck.

That is the problem. And they will absolutely see no shame in it. They will be raising shoulder ontop what they haven't produced.

That is if the nigerians even exist till 3049.

The Chinese cars are cheaper and better than the overhype Tesla. Its is not always the first to market that wins the race. Elon Musk's arrogance has been his downfall; had he partnered with African states for access to cheap raw materials, maybe Telsa would have been more competitive.

That’s false!

Elon is the root cause Tesla’s setback. He has made too much enemies after delving into politics.

When his stocks were shooting over the roof, did you say he was far head in technology? I guess No. the question is that, where are all those consumers, and where did he get it wrong.

If not for the US government protecting Tesla, Chinese EV manufacturers would have nailed Tesla’s coffin. Elons Ego is the root cause of every setback happening to him.

How about Twitter? Is that also far ahead of technology? He ruins everything with ego.
