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.
BYD is a threat to Tesla. It's far cheaper , BYD shut down the just concluded EV auto show in china. Omo BYD dey para, USA don't want import. China investors are building $40B factory for EV in Europe

EVs can have parts go bad too even if sparingly. They're pretty expensive to fix when something does need a fix.

Partly down to subsidized Chinese EVs discouraging purchase of American made cars. Heard they have EVs as cheap as $11,000 Compared to $25kand above for average american made .

Yes BYD is a big threat. Nio introduced a battery swapping technology that if implemented properly would kill off Teslas charging infra which is one of Teslas USP.
Thank God I sold all my shares in Tesla already. This is a race to the bottom for them.

Ipob, forget this rubbish. Why are you pained that obi was mentioned if you are not the agent of the agulu packaged fraud? The comment disparaging Tinubu came first, but it is a response to it which involves obi you are crying about. In that comment, did you see anything said about Atiku? In your mind now, you are hiding shey. A typical ipob is unintelligent. Gerrout.

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.

Shut the Bleep up. If the person that mentioned Tinubu is Atiku supporter, so why asking the person that responded such silly questions? Why not ask that person what brought Tinubu into it. Ipob miscreants are subhumans. Gtfo. Keep lying to yourselves and Nigerians are waiting to see how those lies will install peteru gringory obi the packaged fraud.

How will this news promote made in Nigeria goods. Foreign automobile business not moving well is now Nigeria business Abi.

Export or perish should be the motto and not "Buy made in Nigeria."

As Pat Utomi said "Import substitution policies."

Buying made in Nigeria is engineering. It is not economics.Producing what you have competitive or comparative advantage is economics.

If the countries imports $40bn worth of goods yearly, using Nigeria, the best we can save is $3bn or max 4bn through impirt substitution. Over a period of 10 years, all you save is $4bn annually

On the other hand, if the country chose to focus on exports, exports can double in 10years netting an extra $40bn to $80bn. Exports has grown by an extra $40bn annually.

Shut up. You were there foolishly asking what brought obi into the thread even though a comment unnecessarily dragging Tinubu in came earlier. Infact, the poster responded to the ipobidient who first introduced Tinubu into it. Here you are now talking about who support who or defender of who while your first comment was how obi's name got into the thread. So what brought Tinubu into it which the poster responded to. Ipob miscreants are just too senseless.

You must be mistaking me for your parents. Of course I won't expect you to remain here after your lies have been exposed. You can now run along and search for another thread to drop more lies in a hope to swindle unintelligent fellows to support that agulu packaged criminal.
