Tesla offered a discount in order to that people do not wait until buying in January when a new credit becomes available to people. And this is in a tiny part of the global market as well.

To jump from 'company offers discount' to 'company is dead' is literally the dumbest fucking argument I have ever heard. Seriously wtf.

Also they literally made record profit last quarter and are expected to make record profit this quarter all while still growing rapidly for a company this large.

Claiming Tesla is a dead company is really the height of idiocy. Like if you don't like Musk that fine, but really just denying reality because of that makes you look like very foolish.

> Tesla is dead as a company.

Oh one of you. Would be great if you spread this as far as you can and get the Tesla share prices to drop so I can buy them cheap. Cheerio ;)

They're spreading FOMO because they're short. They keep losing.

So Tesla isn't offering incentives?

Yes. This incentive applies only to the US. Only for December. Only on certain variants of Model 3 and Y. All thanks to people unwilling to take delivery in December due to IRA kicking in on January 1, 2023.

So basically the days of people wanting to pay a premium for Tesla are over?
