Expose Claims Tesla's Quest To Build The First Affordable Electric Car Has Spawned An Abusive Environment

When Elon Musk announced the Model 3, a new electric sedan that would sell for just $35,000, he sent shock waves through Wall Street - and through America. 

Thousands of people lined up for blocks across the country in 2016 to put down a $1,000 deposit for a Model 3 car before production had even begun. 

In the first day alone 180,000 people had pre-ordered the Model 3. By the end of the week, that number went up to 325,000.

He needs to be kicked out of company so Tesla can have a chance at success.

That being said there is probably some truth to the article.

If they can cut gas consumption by 30% without greatly increasing costs (like direct injection) that would be great! I don't think that will be enough to compete with modern EVs though.
