There are now plenty of other high-quality BEV to choose from.

And Tesla had an edge but it has been eroding with some idiotic decisions (like the no stalks model 3) and Elon's recent behavior completely destroyed the brand to those mostly likely to buy one.

These cars are cost-optimized to the bare-bones. The bull-headed decision to use cameras for everything, including for sensing rain, isn't giving them any favors. All other manufacturers in the space use a combination of radar/lidar and cameras for self-driving capabilities, and as a result are much safer.
