They're not doing that, either... the only reason you would drive a Tesla is performance. The environmental impact of making a full-EV is much more damaging than using a gas engine.
That old oil industry FUD line again? Seriously it seems like a switcy was flipped and now people who claim to care about the environment spout oil industry myths.
I thought it's widely accepted that the Tesla stock price is heavily inflated relative to the company's actual performance and that Elon Musk is increasingly considered a liability as his vaporware marketing (e.g. the various blatantly misleading claims about the trajectory of FSD capabilities) was a major factor to the stock's growth in the past.
