People just don’t give Elon enough credit. I can totally relate to “Elon’s time”. 😅

Yes, been around forever, not just golf carts:
Production of the Detroit Electric automobile, powered by a rechargeable lead acid battery, began in 1907. For an additional US$600, an Edison nickel-iron battery was available from 1911 to 1916. The cars were advertised as reliably getting 80 miles (130 km) between battery recharging, although in one test a Detroit Electric ran 211.3 miles (340.1 km) on a single charge. Top speed was only about 20 mph (32 km/h), but this was considered adequate for driving within city or town limits at the time.

EV's have been around forever at your local golf course.

Model S Plaid with track pack just set new lap record for “a production EV” at Nürburgring. Beat the old time by 8 sec.

https://notthebee.com/article/wow-israeli-survived-attack-from-hamas-and-outran-killers-with-tesla-model-3-that-took-insane-damage-and-still-was-able-to-navigate-him-to-the-er
An Israeli man, only identified by the initial "C" found himself surrounded by Hamas on the day of the invasion on his way to report to the city's emergency squad.
The Hamas fighters started immediately firing upon the man in his Tesla Model 3, aiming at the back and the front of the car. However, since the Tesla is an electric vehicle with no front engine, they were unable to disable the car with the shots.
"They did not realize that it was an electric vehicle, so they shot at the front, hoping to hit the engine that was not there, and at the back, trying to set the fuel tank on fire that the car doesn't have. They shot my tires. I stepped on the gas and they started chasing me," C. said.
C. was chased by the jihadists and reached speeds of over 110 miles per hour. This is while the Tesla had a flat tire.
C. credited the Tesla's all-wheel drive mode for keeping him on the road. He was able to outrun the truck that was chasing him and made it to the hospital to receive treatment for the gunshot wounds he sustained.

He's lucky they didn't hit the battery - that shit burns fast and hot.

That's exactly what I thought.
Hamas just hasn't a clue about Teslas because they never see them. Had they known, they would have gone for the battery.

I want to get some thoughts on this electric car company. It looks like they are not going to make money anytime soon. However, this stock can be a great trading vehicle with a strong support in the low 20's.
Thoughts?
Thanks.
