The point is to pump out ‘luxury’ vehicles with tons of high markup features so that they can earn the most per unit and recoup their investment quickly just like Tesla did. The problem is that this coincides with high interest rates, high inflation, and a market that has a lot more competition than what Tesla faced a decade ago with everyone else jumping on the bandwagon too. We’re essentially witnessing what’s been going on with streaming services over the last few years except with high ticket items.
