To be fair the only way they moved 16,000 cars in July is if they used their existing stock pile to send out when orders opened up.Originally Posted by Sanlmar
August 1st is gonna be quite the show.
Right now, generally your only all electric choice are inexpensive stuff like Prius or Chevy Volt. Which is interesting cause electrics given range/lack of charging stations are kind of an interesting addition to your personal fleet. This is the behavior of the well heeled buyers. Tesla is your only avenue to indulging that desire with any self respect.
Jaguar is there and the others are coming. By some estimates at auto shows over 100 models are in the pipeline.
I could go into great depths about why Tesla will fail, but think about this for a minute. If there is this insane level of demand, why are people who are actually ordering now that it has been opened up (don't forget the 400,000 reservations) getting their cars in days and not weeks or months?
The demand is for a $35,000 with a $7500 tax rebate. What you have here is a $55,000 car with a dwindling tax rebate. They have actually removed all notes and documentation around the $35,000.
There literally is no $35,000 mass market vehicle, it will never exist or at least not as the Model 3.
