Let's face it, people seem to be able to tolerate a lot of shit before they ever actually start showing how they feel with their wallets.
Oh I don't know, the Budweiser stock hit endured pretty lengthy after being advertised by a non-redneck.
IDK about new car figures, but I'm in the market for another EV. I found a Tesla model 3 long range awd that had done about 150k km, and a Renault Zoe with 15k km and 2/3 the range. The Renault is slightly cheaper, but it's Musk being a loose canon that's the reason why I'm going with the Zoe instead. Sure it's a nicer car, if it works, but the fear that Musk get's high and disables non-essential stuff is too real.
So in my case Musk has directly affected my used car choice.
Does the Zoe have conventional door handles? Cause the functional design of Tesla's leaves a lit to be desired anyway.
AFAIK yes, at least I didn't notice anything strange, and I believe the one I looked at in the comparison (at a dealership) even had a proper keyhole in the driver door.
