A few days ago, when similar reductions were announced in China, crowds of angry people appeared outside the Tesla showrooms. No, not to order new cars! Buyers who ordered their cars earlier protested, and now they felt cheated, because after the sale, brand new Teslas became even cheaper than one-year-old or two-year-old used cars!

Will it be the same in Poland? Probably not, but people interested in buying an electric car will now have a real problem, because Tesla’s offer, compared to what other brands offer, has become really attractive. At a time when the competition announces an increase after an increase, and in addition distant deadlines for order fulfillment, often without a guarantee that the car will be delivered on the promised date and at the current price, Tesla cars not only have become cheaper, but also the waiting time may be shorter than competition.
