Electric cars are so dumbed down, it's really simple. If people would read the article to know why: taking pressure off supplies, and likely dropping demand.
There has been a big crash in electric car demand this year, you can see this everywhere, from lithium prices to Tesla having to drop it's prices multiple times.
It hurts my eyes to see people in HN saying that it's really important to invest in R&D, those companies have been always investing in R&D. But creating a new electric car model is literally day-to-day business.

I even saw a snarky Reddit comment last week about how Tesla is doomed as they “only do like 1.5M a year vs Ford’s 4.2M year”. It’s like these people were born yesterday, they have no historical understanding or sense of progression. They live in a perpetual present, unable to see the bolder coming until it hits them.
So many shorts have already be wrecked, and now a whole new generation is about to get to the “find out” stage.
