Supercharging doesn’t complete the charge in under 20minutes. Which means it’s a so-so solution.

Once you extend beyond your 120mi radius you basically set aside 2 hours to charge? and that’s supercharging. Not a great solution.

So then your argument is “have another car”.

Okay. I think this debate is really dumb.

As for “EVs excel in the city” —have you lived in NYC and tried to charge when there’s a two hour time limit in the garage of the condo association? Sure. That works great for me too. Not.

Let’s be honest: this is still for the one percenters. And the market is near saturation. And then Tesla is faced with a cliff.

I’m not anti EV. I just think the current infrastructure sucks and it’s just a pain in the ass still.

Furthermore: the styling is hideous and homely.

If I was looking at a Model S? I wouldn’t. It’s already dated. I’d be getting a 7 or S.

The Model 3 looks like a Martian drew an AMC Gremlin. No thanks.
