That is simply not true. You are speaking about the past. In the present and the future, especially as superchargers open up to other brands and more NEVI chargers get built in the second half of this decade, I see absolutely no reason people would “come to Tesla.”

I would put money on the opposite, and on people moving to other brands.

Superchargers opening up will not be overnight. It will take years.

Prices will be higher for non Teslas and will require inconvenient steps and even membership plans to get a slight price break. And there will be fewer features. When the chargers are even ready. A few are, but don’t be fooled to think that means bad times are in the past for non-Tesla EVs.

As to other chargers being built, sure, but scale and ubiquity is what matters. Not having one fast charger at the odd Four Seasons resort. I’ll believe it when I see it.
