who knows... perhaps he should be held accountable to the other 80% of investors and be forced to explain his moves?, it's no longer his company and yet he still behaves like it.
Also a PR firm to avoid all these controversies would help a lot. He's a few really bad tweets from getting boycotted, or a few bad decisions from tanking tesla.
Supercharger network is definitely a reason why I went for a Tesla and i'm definitely left wondering what's going on and how this will affect long trips.
Edit: as noted by others, no real effect in europe due to availability of other options and drive to have chargers almost everywhere, so perhaps it is a good decision to focus on cars: https://www.fleeteurope.com/en/new-energies/europe/article/fast-chargers-every-60-km-key-eu-motorways?a=FJA05&t%5B0%5D=Charging&curl=1 https://www.fleeteurope.com/en/new-energies/europe/article/f...

- adriancr 2y ago> Tesla cant get the gov subsidies for charging stations because of the rules about membership. They have opened up superchargers for other cars, so they would get subsidies if they wanted. It seems like they do not want to compete in charging network market. It would also not provide any benefit for them if everyone can use them and there are others building them. They were useful to kick start EV adoption. Shame though since it could have been spun up as a separate company and sold off.
