Tesla owners express shame over Elon Musk’s behavior: ‘I’m embarrassed driving this car around’ The Guardian
In a surprising turn of events, Tesla owners are expressing their disappointment and frustration with CEO Elon Musk, with some even going as far as to say they are embarrassed to drive their electric cars.
The backlash comes after Musk’s recent controversial behavior on social media, including his tweets mocking the SEC and calling a diver involved in the Thai cave rescue a “pedo guy.”
One Tesla owner, who wished to remain anonymous, told The Guardian, “I used to be so proud to drive my Tesla, but now I feel ashamed. Elon Musk’s erratic behavior and lack of accountability are tarnishing the reputation of the company and its products.”
Another owner expressed their disappointment, saying, “I invested in a Tesla because I believed in Musk’s vision for a sustainable future. But his recent actions have made me question my decision.”
The negative sentiment towards Musk has also been reflected in Tesla’s stock price, which has taken a hit in recent weeks.
Despite the backlash, Musk shows no signs of slowing down his controversial behavior. In a recent interview, he defended his actions and stated that he has no plans to change his ways.
As Tesla owners continue to voice their concerns, it remains to be seen how Musk’s behavior will impact the future of the company and its loyal customer base.
