I know someone with a Tesla who lives out of town, no road tax, no servicing? really, a charge point in the driveway convenient to their lifestyle with a laser light show to cheer you up. The scuttle is so low that I was praying it won't go under something if the brake fluid boiled and the battery longevity is a big question mark, I'm also seing more Tesla's on breakdown trucks.
Great when new but what happens when time goes on and the battery cries enough, it simply goes on the ever mounting problem of a huge mountain of rising scrap and of course the propensity for the batteries to ignite at any given moment.
The recent car transporter ship burning carrying EV's off Portugal then sinking causing environmental catastrophe for marine life is more trouble than it's worth.
