      Mississippi is also dirt poor. Rather than per resident, l’d like to see per 100k cars.

      New York is one of the most liberal states in the country, but its got fewer EVs per capita than Texas in no small part because its also one of the few states with a functional mass transit system.

      Utah is one of the reddest states in the country, but it also has enormous wealth per capita, so it has far more new EVs than bluer states like Delaware and Rhode Island and New Mexico and Wisconsin.

      It’s not the same map. The east coast is rich as well. That being said, I’m guessing a Tesla is down the list from a proper closed sewage system, if you’re in a poor black belt county, so no surprise it’s pretty low in the deep south.

      There’s poor people in NY, of course, but so is there in Cali.

      In Turkey, a Tesla is very cheap compared to alternatives. By cheap I mean thrice as cheap.

    I’ve seen quite a lot of Tesla in Florida, way more than 1%. However I was only at tourist places.

    As a Californian, I’m sorry about Musk, guys… We fucking hate that guy, and his shitty cars, but we have a ton of people here, and some of them are Conservatives and/or Nazi’s that own Tesla’s.

      Just because someone buy/use a product from a company doesn’t mean they like the CEO.
