slave labour in china was more of a thing 20 years ago, they dont need suicide nets anymore..shit it's probably more automated than what north america has

the west has diesel scandal and it's pretty well documented how lighting and emissions, deal lobby groups skirt around regulations

also look at our diary cartel, look at americans bailing out the domestic brands to the tune of 120B in today's money

ur eqe highway range (500km+) exceeds bZ highway range by 50%.
it will also charge in the winter whereas BZ/Solterra couldn't be sold in quebec until 2025.

charging at 5 Celsius? u will get 150kW while bz4x get 30.
at -20 celsius? u will get 100kW while bz4x gets 6.
after driving 700km a day? u will keep fast charging while the bz4x will stop fast charging - 6kW.

Is the EQ that bad? I'm starting to see EQS in the $50s seems interesting but the interior definitely isn't as nice as a $50s S63

So the wife’s been driving the lezbaru around and it’s great in the city. I took it to work two days and then she had it for the rest of the week. She went to her dad’s and did a whole bunch of errands and came home last night and still had 62% charge.

We used the level 1 last night and this morning it’s back to 75%. Pretty damn good.

Plenty of range and charges fast enough on the level 1.

I've been saying that 120v is enough to charge for years but ppl have range anxiety for the 1 road trip they do a year. + Its not hard to stop at a super charger.

EV's are great for ripping around town getting things done. I love it.

Level two chargers at home are worth the spend though.

Apparently the poverty y is $49999 so I guess it's qualifies for discount?

No? Is that price including tax? I think the discount applies if <50k after tax.

New rules: limit is 50k before freight, PDI, and tax.

Ah yes. But included in the 50k will be dealer fees and any add-ons like floor mats, ceramic coating, window etching, car alarms.

Yeah, although I would think Tesla is incentivized to really actually make the stripper Y fit under the 50k.

Man, that cost-down model is pretty weird. They deleted the pano sunroof feature... but then actually kept the glass there and simply blocked it out from the inside so you couldn't enjoy it. Lolol.

It'd be pretty sweet if it turned out all you had to do was snip a rectangle out of the headliner!

I can't be the only person that read:

"That stripper model is still $200 more than my..."

and of course I was thinking... What? Badhobz and stripper models?!
