There are signs the billionaire is becoming unpopular with the very demographic group most likely to buy EVs

I mean my wife and I are a perfect example. After moving into our home I had every intention of getting a Tesla for us both and putting in a home charger. I will say we LOVE our Hyundai Ioniq 6 and will be waiting to see what they release next. Tough shit Elon.

Careful now! He might sue you if he finds out you didn't buy his car.

I'm a less perfect example. Wanted to buy an EV but Teslas were probably too expensive for me to even consider. I don't know for sure because I literally never even looked at the Tesla options. I love my Chevy Bolt EUV that I plug into a normal 120 V exterior outlet. Fuck off, Elon.

Same but EV Blazer. Tesla never entered the decision making process.
