It's not Tesla which is thankfully. It's The Fisker that Chinese billionaire dude bought. Fisker and tesla once were the partners but their business model got soured and parted ways which Elon Musk admitted was the best thing happened to Tesla company. Fisker wanted to make their products to be costly and exclusive for the 1% and upper middle class to buy it. Tesla dreamed up of affordable electric cars that everybody can afford to buy.

It's almost irony when U.S. Taxpayer help Fisker to start up yet they doesn't want to sell their products to us.
