Tesla Will Now Let You Finance Your EV Repairs... With Interest Rates as High as 36% APR - FuelArc News

Let’s say your Cybertruck pops a tire, or needs a new windshield, or you just looked at it funny and the glued-on stainless steel panels fell off. No worries! Tesla’s got you covered. You can now finance your repairs through Affirm or Klarna, because if there’s one thing America needs, it’s more high-interest debt attached […]

With Tesla, you can turn a $2,442 windshield installation into a $3,174 windshield installation through the power of interest.

This is being reported by the Teslasphere as an “excellent option” to restore affordability to a car market that desperately needs more affordability.

Only, neither of those numbers is even in the same ballpark as affordable.

    yeah I’m not sold on EVs. you want to save the world? encourage automakers to make small vehicles. why does everything need to be a 3800 lb vehicle with at least 250 horsepower. bring back compact economical vehicles. raise the cost of fuel by taxation enough to actually pay for a fair chunk of the road maintenance. drive less.

    EVs are fantastic for dense areas compared to ICE vehicles. they’re still a vehicle, and they’re still just a way to get you to consume.
