Companies that raise prices in exceptional situations take a major reputational hit.

The canonical example is snow shovels after a blizzard.

This is not taking advantage of a disaster (taking advantage of people's suffering), this is supply and demand. Supposedly, Tesla's are in high demand and as a 'luxury' good they could charge as much as they wished without consequence to their reputation. Indeed, it may even increase the desirability of their cars. Which begs the question, why haven't they? Instead, they've consistently slashed prices..
