    It’s hurting in the US too. I am not a hard partisan but I would never buy a Tesla anymore because I’d be worried of being seen as making a political statement. I’m probably in the market for an electric vehicle in the next few years.

      When I first started seeing Tesla cars on the road, I would think, “Must be nice. I can’t wait for the price of Teslas to go down.”

      Now when I see them, I wonder if the driver regrets owning one.

      Guy who owned the company I used to work for owned one when it was considered prestigious, and last year traded it in for a Genesis.

      I’ve owned two Teslas and have previously raved about them to colleagues. My current Y is my last Tesla.
