I'm no Musk fan (though I am a Tesla owner), but I always thought this was ridiculous.
If ANY company should be given credit for leading the way on EVs, it's Tesla. Other manufacturers started making EVs, but until recently, the buying process was awful. There were a lot of stories of people going to dealerships and trying to buy an EV and the salespeople would steer them towards an ICE. They don't want to sell you an EV because their maintenance department doesn't profit as much off of them.
