Elon Musk denies his Twitter use hurts Tesla as sales soar – BBC News

Elon Musk has denied that his use of Twitter, the social media platform he owns, is damaging the electric vehicle maker Tesla.

Mr Musk is chief executive and product architect of the automotive firm, which announced sales and profits for the October-to-December period ahead of expectations.

On a call with investors, Mr Musk was asked if his activity on Twitter is hurting Tesla's brand.

"I think Twitter is actually an incredibly powerful tool for driving demand for Tesla," Mr Musk said.

That's ridiculous that the lady doesn't like her car because Elon bought Twitter. It's laughable. 😀

BBC worked really hard to find someone who WOULDN'T buy another Tesla.

- it fits their "narrative."

BBC report news based on ONE customer! News must be based on facts and data instead of anecdote.

I don't have a Tesla. But after Musk bought twitter I start to think of getting one. I guess as she leaves, some are joining. That's why the sales are still very high and going up despite the rhetoric.

If profits were up 59% then why cut the MSRP by $5000???

I was so happy when Elon Musk bought Twitter. I noticed the difference right away. There was less bots and sensoring! It was like night and day..

Where I live in California literally over half of the charging stations don’t work. All my friends with evs complain about it constantly. I’m so thankful I have a hybrid. I support Electric cars. But we are so far from them being able to replace gas cars sadly. We can’t even get the charging stations right.

Strange how some people, like the woman featured, would object to the car because the company owner espouses freedom of speech. That’s a her problem.

[sourabhjogalekar]

BBC and the lady who named the car scarlet do not understand that the car is made by labor not the provider of means of production

"I don't like my car anymore because Elon is not nice" so go buy a Volkswagen you will love the founder. 🤡
