alt Hacker NewsThe latest car Tesla released, the cybertruck, was one of the biggest automotive flops ever, production is essentially halted, demand is non-existant.
Tesla announced and started taking reservations for their roadster TEN YEARS AGO. People who made reservations and paid the $50k-$250k cost are STILL WAITING.
And now Tesla has announced yet another vapourware car, with a controversial design, taking reservation money again.
If you fall for this, you are a fool.
Financial flop, maybe. I put down the pre-order fee on day one, then paid foundation series price for delivery and 2 years later it's still objectively the best car I could have for my family (space for toys, self-driving, safest truck on the road; not every family has these requirements). If they stop making it for financial reasons, that's fine, I'll have gotten my years of use out of it and hopefully someone else will have figured out how to put FSD on a production car.
