“But its cost of goods sold was about $220,000 per car versus an average selling price of $81,000 in the quarter, CFRA estimated.”

There aren’t with government subsidies in the world to cover that cost. But then, I don’t think it’s about making EVs affordable for the public...it’s about lining politician’s pockets.

My wife’s uncle bought a new Lucid EV a couple of months ago. He paid more than $150,000. He (age 89) and his wife broke down in their new EV in Arizona and had to get a rental car (gas-powered) to continue their trip.
