Sorry, but the facts are they could have stayed smaller and concentrated on the higher end and more expensive cars.

The problem with that is people who spend a lot of money on cars want luxury, performance or both. Expensive Tesla's offer neither luxury nor performance. The 3 second 0-60 times on airport runways was a ruse - you only get to do that a few times before the car starts failing and overheating. You can't take them to the track- too heavy and they degrade on a road race after a few minutes.

Then there's poor QC and styling issues.

You make it sound so bleak and gloomy.

Whatever happened to Tesla’s higher end models?

And then there will be the new Roadster:
