He might've been able to get away with the behavior 10 years ago when Tesla ruled the EV market. Now they have growing competition with better build quality and (subjectively) better styling.

Damn that rivian looks nice.

Yeah I think the front end is a little goofy, a bit too 90s Macintosh. The back end is a work of boxy art. It's giving MkII GTi and every EV company should be bringing back 70s, 80s, and 90s glory like this.

I would really like the updated/electrified iconic Volkswagen minivan.

You mean the ID. Buzz? I’ve heard they’re pretty good.

Yeah that one, I don't think it's perfect or anything but would be so cool. I've seen a few ones going around here mostly (only?) company ones, they're pretty pricey I think here it's like 80k€ or whatever.
