Pros of owning a Tesla:
  • Low operating costs: Teslas are electric vehicles, so they don't require gasoline or oil changes. This can save you a lot of money in the long run.
  • High performance: Teslas are known for their acceleration and handling. They are also very quiet and smooth to drive.
  • Advanced technology: Teslas are equipped with a variety of advanced technology features, such as Autopilot, Full Self-Driving, and a large touchscreen infotainment system.
  • Environmentally friendly: Teslas are zero-emission vehicles, so they don't produce any tailpipe emissions. This is good for the environment and can also save you money on emissions testing and registration fees.
Cons of owning a Tesla:
  • High upfront cost: Teslas are more expensive to purchase than gas-powered vehicles. However, the lower operating costs can offset the higher upfront cost over time.
  • Limited range: Teslas have a limited range, so they may not be suitable for everyone. However, Tesla is constantly expanding its network of Superchargers, which makes it easier to travel long distances.
  • Reliability issues: Teslas have been known to have some reliability issues, such as problems with the touchscreen infotainment system and the Autopilot system. However, Tesla is constantly improving the reliability of its vehicles.
 
Tesla cars are well designed cars using the latest technology available. Owning a luxury Tesla car is widely considered a status symbol. However, not everyone can afford the expensive cars, and maintenance, repairs of the cars are often difficult.

True, the price of that car is not easy, its expensive, and every little maintenance fee of tesla car is not easy, and the other downside of that car is that when the car is out of battery then you can't open the door and you can't even open the trunk and it makes it very hard for the owner.
 
Every car comes with it's problems, but I do believe that Teslas are worth it because they reduce environmental pollution.

The high upfront costs doesn't encourage a lot of purchases, so hopefully it's a problem that can be solved soon.
 
I believe that Tesla as an automobile company is evolving and by the time it goes mainstream globally, some of the cons like high initial cost and range issues would be addressed.
 
If you look at it well, you would realize that the pros outweighs the cons. For a car brand that is quite young and new to the terrain, I would say that Tesla has overachieved and they would get better from here.
