To say this is highly disingenuous, and disregards the massive amount of work into the energy management system researched by Tesla.

Put a ton of batteries into a car? Yeah, that's how they get 265 miles to a charge. Clearly all other EV cars just need a ton of batteries to solve the range issue.

Of course it is disingenuous. Deliberately so, in exactly the same way that lightly dismissing SpaceX is disingenuous.
I'm not "lightly dismissing SpaceX." I just think Tesla is tredding more unproven ground.
They are completely different domains. Electric cars are at the mercy of consumers. Rockets are at the mercy of physics.
I disagree because I know people who have been at SpaceX and have been following their plans.

But let's have this conversation again in 5 years.
