They seem to be selling their current low-end cars as fast as they can make them, why should they attempt to divert their efforts to a new lower-margin car? They can leave the cheap EV announcements to other manufacturers like VW for people who want to buy an EV some time later...

- lazyjones 6y agoBecause it makes no sense from a business perspective.
- jokoon 6y agoI'm not really sure Elon Musk really wants to make money in the first place, he also wants to make ICU cars obsolete. And I'm pretty sure there are plenty people willing to buy an electric vehicle even if it performs worse than an ICU vehicle. A lot of customers are ready to do it because it's the right thing to do.
