Do you have some numbers on lower maintenance? From a quick look around [1-2] they seem pretty similar to other manufacturers.

It’s not about the cost in the charts you shared, it’s about the frequency (downtime / opportunity cost) and what’s involved:

For a Toyota Camry, this work occurs 2x as often (downtime is a big deal for rental companies) and is not easily performed without a much more capable shop: https://caredge.com/toyota/camry/maintenance#schedule

Less moving parts, less fluids…now I want a Model 3.
