I don't think it is much of a stretch to suggest that Electrek is part of Tesla's marketing team. In a similar way to The Verge being part of Apple's.

??? I read The Verge fairly regularly and can't recall them ever regularly giving undue praise to Apple. I mean if nothing else, they gave both the latest iPad and MBA a 7.5/10

The Verge are Google/Android fanboys at heart. Unclear to me how they got the iVerge moniker besides giving good scores to Apple’s objectively good devices.

That reputation came about due to their notorious review of the Nokia Lumia 900 in 2012. The reviewer gave it lower numerical scores than the iPhone on various factors like ergonomics and camera even though the review text didn't imply that it was lower quality.

That led to accusations of Apple bias, especially because of editor Topolsky's love of all things Apple back during his Engadget days.

I think it's still their most-commented article ever.
