I don't think I need to introduce readers to Elon Musk's online antics. I also probably don't need to explain that it's seriously hurting Tesla's brand, its stock value, and its future. Zach already did
at Twitter. I have been a fan for so long. I met him twice and thought the best of him. Tesla is the first car I fell in love with. Starlink is pure genius, so resilient in case of fibre optic attack. But on Twitter he is the owner and a bully.Why I’m Still Optimistic About EVs, Cleantech, and Tesla Itself
I’m feeling that way about Tesla in 2022 because it’s not the center of the EV universe that it once was. If Tesla had gone down in flames in 2010, the industry wouldn’t have moved in the direction it did, because there would have been no real pressure. Even as late as 2016–2017, cars like the Model S, Model X, and Nissan LEAF were niche cars and most manufacturers didn’t have any serious EV efforts going.
Non-Tesla charging infrastructure is very usable compared to where it was even in 2019, and the infrastructure bill is going to massively expand CCS charging. Tax incentives are coming back for all brands, and even will be available as a point-of-sale rebate for participating dealers. There will also be US rebates and credits for used EVs for the first time.
I’d also argue that the complete destruction of Tesla is also extremely unlikely. The stock and the sales could take a major bloodbath if Elon Musk keeps acting like he lives in a right-wing version ofwhere fantasy and what feels good trumps reality, and you don’t need to know the facts. His flamboyant ways could, at worst, get the company kicked out of China, and we’d watch the Shanghai plant start churning out Tesla cars without Musk’s permission.
