Why does that sedan cost 40k and why do the gas guzzlers become unable to compete?
I’ll wait but you just want to talk about doctors buying Tesla.
They get 2.5k/car in total subsidies all inclusive.

They just raised the price from 35k to 40k, because subsidy is meaningless. They will sell infinity of them. There is nobody on the planet with the manufacturing expertise Tesla.

Raise the price by the cost of the subsidy again, and all is fine.

Why do Americans spend 30k-40k on subpar cruiser motorcycles when they could go buy a top of the line v4 super bike for 20k? Hell they even spend 20k on cruisers, when they could get so much more for the price in terms of pure performance.

People aren’t nerds that’s why, they :censored2:ing grew up seeing the American cruiser between the terminators legs as he blew people’s heads off with a shotgun and went on a badass rampage.
Same thing with American muscle and trucks.

Not everything is a spread sheet and numbers.

That's cool. Just recognize how much you're rationalizing.

Only after recognizing that EVs are superior do you argue that it's not about who is superior.

Very convenient.

Because EVs are superior.

Price wise they are not, combustible engines are being slowly regulated out of existence while EV is being subsidized. It isn’t about doctors and top of the line models, it’s about getting it in everyone’s driveway and EV’s wouldn’t achieve that on their own in America.

You're right, price-wise they are not in most models. They are so superior that people are willing to pay a massive premium to get them.

Tesla can deliver a 300 mile range, totally unsubsidized, 4 door sedan with two trunks to any driveway in America for under 40k, and still make a profit. Their costs are that low. They charge more because they can.

They have the best margins in the auto industry because they are by far the most advanced manufacturer. Take away all subsidies of all kinds, and they can still beat the average new car price in America for a profit. And it's only going to get better.

You're just going to have to deal with it. This is going to happen whether the Green Commies subsidize it or not.

You’re just so full of :censored2:, you sit there and tell half the story without acknowledging the massive advantage EV’s are being given, not even with subsidies, but regulations preventing competition. I’m done talking with you you clown.

preventing competition?

Consumers can choose from any 30 to 50k car they want, and Teslas fly off the shelves. Nobody is doing that to them. Nobody is restricting their choices. Gas cars are better now than they have ever been, and they're still less desirable.

You are just a sore, bitter loser.

Forget the existence of competition. Remove all subsidies.

Tesla can beat the average new car price with a fantastic sedan right now with no help. That's a raw, non-negotiable fact.

They literally convinced a younger generation that if they don’t buy the car that sounds like their mother’s vibrator the whole world is gonna end. Subsidize the hell out of them and slam the combustible engines with burdensome regulations.

OMG LOOK HOW SUCCESSFUL EVS ARE!
lol okay clown.

This just in:

The car only beat the horse because the government started favoring horseless carriages and built roads for them and all sorts of handouts.

2% of revenues isn't "subsidizing the hell out of them" - you are simply lying.
"Slam combustible engines with regulations" - gas cars are better than they ever have been in history.

And people who don't care at all about the environment, such as myself, still recognize their superiority.

Them idiots buying better and faster cars.

What is the world coming to these days?

Next thing you know people will just be hovering in the air in flying machines!
I've been told that since the 50's. Now days they may be hovering but they aren't going anywhere.

When I see someone on a big ass stupid motorcycle that is basically just a corvette engine on two wheels that as soon as you let out the clutch in a school zone you are breaking the law idling, I think thank god I’m america.
