> a company whose technology has revolutionized the transportation industry
They make electric cars with what are essentially really large laptop batteries. There's not a lot of "revolution" there. There's evolution. At the end of the day they're making cars that fit people and drive on existing roads. Their technology isn't bad but it's not some major revolution.
The technology they crow about like FSD does not work very well. It's also unlikely to get better because of hubris at the top about sensors.
They want to be seen as a tech company but they're a car company. Electric cars are cool and are a marked improvement over ICE cars but they're still cars.
