The actual price is literally right there on the screen. Potential gas savings is still a huge selling point to the market they're addressing (maybe not for you or I).
I'm not sure this qualifies as "shady" when everything is displayed within the same viewport.
- protomyth 8y agoThe actual price is one place on the screen at the bottom in white text on grey with the fake prices on the prominently on the side in bold. Its shady.
- Aeolun 8y agoThis qualifies as shady. It’s pretty much the definition of shady. Probably just barely legal.
- reitzensteinm 8y agoThey subtract gas savings, but don't add the destination fee or any state taxes. I kind of get the gas savings bit, but to selectively include savings and hide other fees is shady as hell in my opinion. At least that's what it was like before; in Australia, the Model 3 configuration screen is apparently now stuck in an infinite redirect loop. It looks like it's unchanged, but I can't look at the page for more than a second.

It seems concerning that outright dishonesty in consumer-facing material for large purchases might reasonably be considered par for the course. What an abject failure of industry leadership. Good thing they weren't kind enough to include the amortized battery replacement costs or other differentials in operating costs, like a comparison between their repair and maintenance schedule to an industry average.
