Most Model 3s sold in the US have state subsidies.
California their largest market is 2 grand I believe.
Other states like Colorado and NJ are much more.
Like I said, sell me with numbers, or it’s a no go. “I think” and “much more” is not a hard sell. A tech manager wouldn’t give you the time of day with that.
I see these hard facts:
(1) low price of consumer entry.
(2) no oil changes
(3) no gas station stops
(4) refueling done during time you aren’t using car.
Even without 7500$ subsidy, if it still goes that high ANYWHERE, 2 through 4 alone make it worth the difference for many Americans, and many are waking up to that fact.
The sales on the model 3 speak for themselves.
And as soon as the battery gets big enough to tow a standard enclosed trailer 300 miles in on a charge, the Big 3 had better be ready to become the niche 3 or ready to play electric ball.
