Telsa have been making electric cars for well over 15 years and other manufacturers are struggling to get started. Yet Tesla just keep making constant improvements, refitting and reducing costs.
Even VW are having a tough time reducing costs without cutting corners.

If things continue, then Tesla will soon kill the diesel/petrol market long before the government dead-line of 2030.




I had a Nissan Leaf 30KW acenta, and it was an amazing car to drive, and despite not being made for performance, let me tell you, it could shift. But drive it like your driving instructor taught you, and I could get nearly 200 miles from one charge. Not bad for a car that was supposed to do 120 miles, and that's in Yorkshire.

That's pathetic from a Tesla. With much higher performance and range. But also at a cost. A MUCH higher cost. But they're getting cheaper all the time, and that's down to how they're manufactured.
Along with ZERO road tax, almost no servicing costs beyond topping up the screenwash, and cleaning the brake discs of dust.
