The smart thing Tesla understands is that a big part of making the shift to EVs will be a social shift, not engineering. The engineering is a no-brainer, ICEs are rubbish and the sooner they’re gone, the better. Tesla wants to break a lot of the teenage masturbatory fantasies that surround existing cars. If it demonstrates how pathetic they are, it’s one more barrier removed. Like here, the new Tesla Cybertruck (like a large ute) easily beating a Porsche in a drag race. While towing another Porsche.
