"According to RepairPal, the average Tesla maintenance cost is $832 per year. That compares to an average of $652 per year for all car models sold in the United States. Depending on which services your Tesla needs, you may end up spending much more than the average car owner on yearly maintenance needs.

As of 2021, Tesla remains a new kid on the block in the automotive space. Due to this, little data is available concerning Tesla’s overall reliability and its average cost of ownership. Complicating matters further is the fact that Tesla models lack many components usually found in cars with internal combustion engines.

Because so many Tesla vehicle parts are unique and difficult to find, expect to spend more than your average driver on Tesla maintenance costs. On top of this, luxury car brands like Tesla tend to charge premium prices for their vehicle parts."

"Tesla Average Reliability
Though not much information exists yet about the overall reliability of Tesla models, early results aren’t encouraging. In the J.D. Power 2021 U.S. Vehicle Dependability StudySM, Tesla ranked 30th of 33 car brands for overall reliability. That’s better than only Jaguar, Alfa Romeo, and Land Rover among all automakers across the country."

When Electric and hybrid vehicles were first available, most people bought them as luxury or novelty items.

Just about every family owns a novelty car, whether it be a sports car, or antique, hot rod, RV, off-road etc.

EV's and hybrids are really not just concept cars anymore though. Today, you have to really try to decide what best fits your needs, before spending 30 -50k on a new automobile.

It may serve you best to buy a hybrid or electric car in today's world. Then again, it may not. It would be stupid to buy or not buy one, just to make some stupid and unwise political score with your buddies.

Every household on my block has a novelty car of some type, and we are not exactly a McMansion neighborhood.

There are still a lot more of licensed vehicles out there than licensed drivers. TRUST ME!

On my street, virtually every house has at least one pickup truck or service van in the driveway. Also interestingly, if you go to the low rent district in the gunfire zones--so-to-speak--you see an awful lot of late model Beemers and Mercs there... Seems being on welfare pays pretty good...

Actually they are being paid with welfare money, especially food stamps.
