Consumers generally buy with emotion.
Fleets buy on spreadsheets.
Tell me again why fleets in Europe with $7 dollar a gallon diesel aren’t all electric?
European car industry protectionism. That and European electrics are amateur hour compared to Tesla. The oh so luxurious and fast Porsches and VeeDubs go about 200 miles, down hill, with a tail wind. Mercedes also is a has never been.
Tesla is mopping the floor with them, so they are buying Euro gassers just to keep the home industries alive in the hopes they can beat Tesla. One day. Maybe. But don’t get your hopes up. Tesla battery knowledge is now nearly unassailable.
Tesla packs are easily lasting beyond 300,000 miles, have the best average performance, and Tesla knows how to make them for the best price.
The only way to match or beat Tesla is a new chemistry only a new manufacturer and owner of said tech can understand.
