Martin Eberhard, one of Tesla's co-founders, has voiced his disappointment over Elon Musk's decision to scrap the $25,000 low-priced electric vehicle project. He further criticized Tesla for developing a pickup truck that bears an unflattering resemblance to a "trash can," arguing that the company should instead continue to explore the low-end market. Eberhard emphasized that the Model 3 and Y are merely the beginning and urged Tesla to persist in introducing more affordable models. Additionally, he expressed skepticism and criticism towards Tesla's Cybertruck project and its strategy for autonomous driving.
