Re:EV startups from Lucid to Rivian see demand fade, supply ... by steveBK123 on Wednesday March 01, 2023 @05:08PM (#34989025)
100% this. I bought a BMW EV partially because the dealer experience was so good. He was like, here's the demo car.. we have an inventory car on the way in 3 months or you can customer order with 6-9mo wait. Zero pressure.

The guy was like hey here's the car.. let me run a copy of your ID, here's the keys to the car, take it for a spin and come back in 30min let me know what you think. This was at the same time other EV makers couldn't be bothered to keep a demo car on lot, or if they did wouldn't let you drive/touch/etc. Even let me come back with my wife and take if for an hour out on the highway, etc to test in more conditions.
