That's, like, the opposite of truth. In other words: a lie.

Majority of dealerships will always act in their self-interest and therefore heavily mark-up cars that are in demand.
Only dealership-free new entrants like Tesla / Rivian / Lucid have a single, no-haggling price.
- danans 4y agoThat's for cars on the lot. Your article says nothing about pre-ordered vehicles. The ID.4 I ordered is MSRP because ordered it months ago. Similar for a pre-ordered Mach E from people I know who have bought them that way lately. The dealer markup for cars on lot sucks, that much I agree with, and that's down to the power of traditional dealerships and and of course supply and demand.

- gamblor956 4y agoFord cracked down on that practice months ago.
