For 40 years, the always imminent "peak oil" crisis has served as a rallying cry for green energy despite steadily increasing global and national oil reserves. At some point oil will likely take a backseat to other technologies but it won't do so until those other technologies are both objectively superior and cheaper. That may be 75 years from now or it might be 150 or more. However, it most certainly will not be 5, 10, or 15 years from now.
Significant improvements in battery/ charging technology or other green energy sources are neither inevitable or without their own environmental/ sustainability hurdles. True progress is not made by "deep thinking". Society changing progress it is made by identifying fundamental technological advantages that can be enjoyed by the world at large. Nitrogen fertilizer, Round-up , fracking, polio, smallpox and HPV vaccines are progress in that they deliver new products that can do something that nothing else can and do it cheaply.
Tesla makes a box with doors, windows, and four wheels that runs off an electric battery. This is not a new idea. Thomas Edison himself designed an electric car around the turn of the 19th century. It didn't catch on then for pretty much the same reasons it hasn't spread beyond urban sophisticates who want a trendy third car now. They have limited range, they are of questionable use in adverse weather and terrain, they are expensive, which makes for small product runs, which makes for troublesome supply chain issues and balky customer service. In short, as of today and the near future, mid class and luxury electric cars are vanity pieces first, vehicles second.
Electric cars do accelerate really well though. That is true. But you know what else accelerates really well and has a tremendous fuel rating. A Japanese sport motorcycle. Kawasaki, Suzuki, Yamaha, and Honda all make stylish motorcycles in the 650-1000 cc range that go 0-60 mph in 3-4 secs, get 50-70 mpg, and cost $7,000- $9,000 brand spanking new.
You want a fast but environmentally friendly third vehicle, buy a motorcycle. You want a environmentally friendly way to commute, get a bus/ train pass. You don't like motorcycles or the bus, get a Prius.
You still have the desire to buy a Tesla, good for you The fact remains that Tesla loses tens of thousands on each car it eventually delivers and makes up for that debt by pumping up its stock value with vague promises of future miracle products.
Tesla might deliver breakthrough technology someday but for right now their stock value is no more solid than Dutch tulips, houses in Florida, or Upper Deck baseball cards.
