Just read this infuriating article in the Washington Post:
Posted this in the comments section:
So much untruth in this article. A typical anti-Tesla hit piece---I expect more from WP. Repeating every poorly sourced, uncredited rumor-mill story, most now discredited. The owners of every other EV car brand would love to be "locked into Tesla's ecosystem" when it comes to using the world's largest, best Supercharger network. Electrify America? Not so much. Read with GM, Ford, and other EV owners have to say. Notice the periodic links to more click-bait, falsehood filled negative articles. Funny how none link to articles reporting positive things. A new American car company, employing 30,000 plus Americans. Building new factories in the US, China, Europe? Also--Tesla wins most owner satisfaction ratings running away.
Tesla safety and survivability is well documented, not like the majority of this article. Take a look at the NHTSA ratings-- all Teslas are 5 star rated, some with the highest number scores ever recorded. Tesla accidents, injuries and fires occur at the rates a fraction of conventional internal combustion cars. They are much, much safer. When's the last time you read a mainstream press article about that? Big oil, gas, stock market short-sellers, big ICE auto are just a few of the forces behind the glut of negative stories you are seeing about Tesla lately. They have the most to loose if Tesla and other EV makers are successful in replacing a carbon-based system with renewables. Follow the money.
