Turns out people don’t really base major purchasing decisions on the vibes they feel about the companies‘ CEOs.

The tesla owners I know are a lot like iPhone buyers, they’ll say they like certain features of the car and that other brands ‚just aren’t the same‘

I hate it but also understand it. Norway is the no 1 EV adopter in the world, and Tesla was a major reason for it. People will buy more European when they step up and beat Tesla at price and quality. Many Norwegians are also opposed to Chinese EVs.
VW and related brands are doing okay, but keep in mind that ICE vehicles are a non feasible alternative here. Many other European countries still buy ICE cars.

Musk: sieg heiling and actively making people nazis through X
Tesla board: meh, he can stay CEO
Norway: meh he does nice things.

What are good Tesla alternatives, price and battery efficiency wise and of course non-China?

u/impzor Sorry to tag you here, but it was interesting enough to share.
People don’t care that Musk is a Nazi wannabe. They still buy his cars.

It’s a bit shameful imo, there are many alternatives (though Tesla gives the most bang for the buck). If its any consolation Tesla drivers are beyond terrible and it is the favored car of the useless manager type.

this tracks – visited Norway and was surprised by the the number of people who openly expressed pretty virulent anti-immigrant rhetoric – whilst it is extremely progressive in terms of equal rights for women – it was clear to me the fascist sympathizers of WW2 just sunk back into the shadows and never went away.

It’s because they offer 0% interest when financing.

Well, maybe we should stop championing some countries as the most ethical. Money and interests will always speak louder than anything else. If people would vote with their wallets, all the billionaires would go bankrupt.

Norway continues to have really strong eh subisidy no? To the point where it’s almost cheaper than transit.

Norway and it’s people or sympathetic Nazi Germany so this is not exactly shocking. This pairs well with their ancestor’s hypocrisy of using oil money to buy electric cars from a Nazi.

There are a lot of idiots in this country. I make a point of showing my middle finger to every new big tesla that was bought after the sieg heiling. Every time. We used to hate Nazis in this country…
Fuck those people. Elon Musks USAID cuts are killing 4000 people a day world wide, and these dickheads send him thousands of dollars because they want to own a newer car than their neighbour. By 2034 he will have killed an estimated 14 million people unless essential USAID operations are restored immediatly. 14 million puts him in league with Stalin, King Leopold, Hitler, Pol Pot, Mao and their peers.
Shame on them, goddamn Quislings the lot of them.

Honestly, I do wonder how much of the sales slump earlier this year were actually the product of a boycott from buyers, or were simply other converging factors (economic or otherwise) that happened to be correlating at the same time, but were outwardly (and perhaps incorrectly all along) interpreted as being causation.
Maybe the boycott effect was actually minimal all along and there were in fact other reasons and factors that caused the temporary sales decline. Maybe people didn’t buy Teslas for a while because they feared getting their cars keyed or windows smashed in while Musk was a negative lightning rod of the world’s attention, but no longer feel that inhibition now that he’s gone from the White House.
Personally, I don’t think the vast majority of people ever really thought Musk was a Nazi or did a salute. I think most were just in fear of the judgment of their neighbors and waited for the scene to cool down before doing what they were always planning on doing from the beginning; buying a Tesla.

Those scandinavians were always weird with their car choices.
Got to hand it to them though. I loved saabs, even though they were super weird
