    It’s hard, a lot of the studies and stats around EVs not selling well and piling up on dealer lots is because Tesla continues to eat everyone’s lunch. They don’t have dealer lots so they’re conveniently not included when articles state that EV inventory is ridiculously high, and as long as they remain a significantly better value than anything the OEMs are putting out things will remain that way (slow EV growth by legacies, piling up on lots).

      That and they also have the most compelling vehicles for the money and by far the best charging network. A model 3 or Y seems like a great value compared to the competition at its price point.

      There’s a reason EV prices are falling off a cliff.

      Recall that the market is saturated with Ev crossovers.

      Yes it’s the biggest market, but there’s literally a dozen options now. Obviously sales will be split.

        Yep more competition in the space is absolutely good, but is also starting to highlight some of the shitty practices by dealers. Lots of Ford dealers putting markups on Mach-E’s and Lightnings, then Ford is struggling to sell their EVs… doesn’t take a genius to figure that one out.
