People also forget that a Tesla has a magnitude fewer moving parts than a ICE(internal combustion engine) car.

The big issue in scaling up is making enough battery packs. Which is a question of ‘when’.

Once they have a monopoly on cheapest battery packs and enough superchargers, a Tesla model 3 is cheaper to maintain, cheaper to run and similar price to an ICE auto, probably better performance.

Unless they fuck it up, BE battery electric is the way to go. Energy to motion, Tesla does more than 100MPG.
