Except for the Cybertruck the cars are pretty good. The overvaluation is because Musk wants everybody to think Tesla is an AI company that makes self-driving cars, which by now everybody realizes is bullshit.
Tesla makes pretty nice cars if you're willing to drive them yourself and you only occasionally use autopilot as a kind of smarter cruise control. Never use FSD unless you're willing to pay through the nose for a system that only works in select locations and otherwise tries to kill you every few minutes.
Just to populate the counterargument: my personal experience with FSD is that it works in all locations I’ve tried it and does not try to kill you every few minutes. Maybe every few months.
Cue HN commentary about how that’s worse, but I’m only commenting here because this comment directly contradicts my lived experience.
