Martin Eberhard, cofounder of Tesla, criticized the company's decision to cancel its low-end car program, expressing disappointment in the focus on the Cybertruck. Eberhard believes an affordable electric vehicle would better serve consumer needs. His ongoing strained relationship with Elon Musk includes past legal disputes and public criticisms, particularly related to company culture and management practices. Eberhard advocates for respectful treatment of employees, contrasting it with Musk's leadership style. He notes that delivering a $25,000 EV could potentially expand Tesla's customer base, addressing concerns from investors and fans about sales performance.
"I am actually disappointed that Tesla canceled its low-end car program, because that's what the world needs - not a truck that looks like a dumpster."
"I'm a believer of treating employees with respect, and I'm not into random firings and things like that. So maybe the culture inside the company would have been a little bit nicer."
