    Yup, demand for BEVs is going down. It turns out, the early adopter demand has been largely saturated and the mass market isn’t particularly enamored with it. It’s not just Tesla, it’s pretty consistent across the market.

    Prices need to go down, battery tech needs to improve, and infrastructure needs to be more convenient.

      I think inflation eating the economic wiggle room for many is a bigger factor.
      Unless of course ICE cars are doing better? But I think growth was not expected for ICE, but it was for EV.
