- zaroth 5y agoMy understanding is that it can be repaired for the same approximate cost, but it requires a different technique (welding)? So it’s a training opportunity for the workforce to earn slightly more per hour and open up new job opportunities with the same margins. Also consider they are foreseeing a world with fewer accidents, specifically accidents with Teslas.
- taneq 5y agoI thought they were almost throwaway items in the case of a collision these days anyway? You hear a lot about Teslas being written off even for minor cosmetic damage.
- ehnto 5y agoI'm sure you know, but that comes down to cost. Repair quotes from Tesla area astronomical, so it's easy to write a perfectly repairable car off just because the finance doesn't make sense to the insurance company.
