I understand this is the thumbnail they have to do to get views, he is running a business after all. And the YouTube algorithm dictates what work and what does not. But I do however feel that I can't take his car reviews seriously, everything is compared to Teslas. Biased much? And getting exclusive interviews with the CEO?
This is not in any way a competitor to a Tesla, why is it even mentioned at all. And this is in almost every review, it is getting rediculous. Does the channel have zero integrity? Sold to highest bidder? Does this bias spill over to other reviews in other categories, like say smartphones?
Is this the way every tech YouTuber must go when they get large enough? Does someone have any recommendations for tech YouTubers that can actually be taken serious as consumer advice? I hate that you have to sort through so many videos and clickbait before you can find a decent review video of a product you are actually looking to buy. YouTube used to be great for this..
Did you watch the video? It’s compared to Telsa because of the Roadster 2’s specs. And those specs were going to put Tesla on the top of the EV 0-60 mountain again. And this thing bests those specs, and beat Telsa to market.
