Tesla quality is notoriously low. Defects are high and service is slow and expensive. Perhaps the laziest brand working the least hard, the design hasn’t changed either, further erasing the value of used vehicles.

The average used car sells in 49 days, which is 6.1 percent faster than a year ago, but new cars have slowed by 25.7 percent

The Tesla Model S is the slowest-selling used vehicle, taking an average of 88.3 days to sell.

It’s not hard to understand why the data shows nobody wants to buy the tired old Tesla S.

You should expect their later models to soon slow down as well, not least of all because build quality has decreased over time as dangerous bugs (loads of technical debt) explode. Indeed, the Tesla Model X already is taking an average of 71.4 days.

Lazy yet rushed, inexperienced yet boastful… Tesla management is the definition of short sighted low value.

At best if someone buys into the dead Tesla brand they should part ways by parting out the few bits even worth anything.
