I feel like 4306 units sold in one quarter is still quite a lot all things considered.
And only 4,200 of them will have panels falling off by the end of next quarter
I am so surprised by the panels falling off; I thought Elmer's glue was supposed to be pretty good.
They used the off brand Elmo's glue
The market comparison is important. It outsold the EV Silverado by about 1000 and was outsold by the F150 EV by about 1000 units. The market cooled on all electric trucks, probably due to price and current economic conditions.
What I’m mostly concerned with is the fact that there’s still so many people who are aware of all the things going on with Musk and the immediate hatred all Cybertrucks receive and still choose to buy one.
That’s what I was hinting at when I said "all things considered". For a car that’s so closely tied to fascism and that will get you shouted at and egged, 4000 units is still a lot.
I don't know, that's probably way below what supercar manufacturers sell, where exclusivity is part of the appeal of the brand.
Lamborghini sells about 10k (2.5/q) units per year, Ferrari about 14 (3.5/q). So that's a bit more than either of them but of course those are way more expensive and exclusive.
