New Tesla Model 3 aimed straight at the private car market

Elon Musk tells the world why the
new Tesla Model 3 is important.

The Tesla chief immediately jumped into the big questions during the big reveal: Why does Tesla exist? Why is Tesla doing this? Why are we making electric cars? Why does it matter?

“Because it’s very important to accelerate the transition to sustainable transport,” Musk said, eliciting cheers from the crowd.

“This is really important for the future of the world.”

He then presented slides on the record levels of carbon concentration, increased global temperatures as well as the 53,000 deaths a year in the U.S. that can be attributed to auto emissions.

(Elon Musk is an intelligent fellow with acute foresight, but the capitalist-like prism through which he views the world limits what he can see and rather than creating and building his range of electric Tesla cars, which are aimed straight at the private-owner market, his efforts, energy, entrepreneurship and forward thinking should be used to create a public transit system, particularly if he is truly concerned about sustainability, as it seems he is.

Cars, electric or otherwise, that are privately owned and used in that respect are contrary to what is needed if the world is to ever draw closer to sustainability – Robert McLean.)
