The criticism raises questions about how many buyers the Roadster may attract and the decision to end the Model S Plaid. Gerber also says high-end electric-car buyers exist and sees a possible market for a cheaper EV. These are opinions and possibilities, not Tesla sales or production results, so they do not change the outlook.
