As usual the #1 way to know for sure it wasn't a Tesla is that Tesla wasn't mentioned in the headline.


I'm confused, did you want them to put Tesla in the title for no reason? This article has nothing to do with Tesla


I think he's saying that Tesla is always mentioned if something happens to one of their cars, but other brands don't get the same treatment. For example a headline about a Tesla exploding would be "Tesla car explodes!", while for any other brand it would be "Electric car explodes!".

I don't have any love for Tesla but I do notice that whenever something happens with one news outlets put the fact that it was a Tesla front and center, while with other brands usually not.


Live by a PR circus, die by a PR circus.


Meaning that if it says EV it isn't a Tesla. Even though all Tesla's are EVs.


Tesla only makes EVs. Are there other car manufacturers who only make EVs?


Yes.
