I only wish I was there since the start. And started investing then. I was only lucky enough to see one on the road back then. Just one.Agreed 100%. I got my model S in 2015, before the X was even a product. All us early adopters who stretched their finances to buy an amazing electric car, have fond memories of the S, or maybe even still have an old one we want to upgrade.
Even if Tesla didn't make a single penny profit on RHD model S/X for those early adopters, its worth doing because those people are the loudest evangelists for the brand. (or they were...).
Maybe a new RHD model S is coming, but the radio silence and gap in production is a big marketing failure.
Maybe if the US changes to metric, the UK can switch sides? The advantage is you could be creating your own EVs, taxis, and batteries for a larger market outside the UK. (Easier said than done.)
Eventually, it seems that Robotaxis could switch sides of the road without any changes in hardware, and expand TAM per vehicle design. Yet another cost savings - due to the volume increase.
