I am well aware of the parts catalog. I was specific about being able to see pricing.
For me this smells like a dark pattern. Tesla gets you in the car at a reasonable price point but why can't they show part prices online? Or even better sell them online? They are a tech company.
Right now, I can tell you the cost of a part for literally any main stream car with just a simple search. I can tell if the parts in stock or if they are out of stock how quickly I can expect to get them.
Why can't tesla do this, if legacy automakers have been doing this for years?
