Tesla took the electric world by storm like the Beatles took the music charts in 1964. But even the Beatles had to listen to their fans, so it's high time Elon Musk took a look at the forums and found out what his customers really want in their garages. After diving into the depths of online comments, we've compiled a list of cars Tesla should launch immediately—if it wants to maintain its reputation as the number one innovator.
The electric revolution needs more than just four models – and the internet is trying to tell Tesla that! Elon Musk may be a visionary who's changing the automotive world, but when it comes to what cars people actually want, he sometimes seems to sound more Martian than Earthling. After digging deep into the comments, forums, and posts, we've found that Tesla customers don't need another promise of futuristic robo-taxis—they want practical cars they can use right here and now. Here are five cars the public has been clamoring for from Tesla—andIt's time for Elon to finally hear them!
1. Tesla Model 2 / Model Q (or as they call it: the electric Fiat 500 for the masses)
If Apple has its iPhone SE, Tesla must have its Model 2. For years, forums have been buzzing with requests for an affordable city electric car that would be ideal for jumping into Mercator or for driving to work through the narrow streets of Ljubljana. Fans dream of a vehicle that will cost around 25 thousand euros, but still retain the characteristic Tesla aesthetic. An electric car for people who want the Tesla badge without having to sell a kidney on the black market. This vehicle has been promised for a long time, but Elon keeps pushing it into the future. We are slowly running out of patience - the people are demanding their own electric "Fiča".
2. Tesla Model 3 station wagon (because we're in Europe and need a trunk that can swallow Ikea boxes)
A particularly hot topic among the comments is the wagon version of the Model 3 or even the Model S. We Europeans have a special passion for these spatial wonders that combine the elegance of a sedan with the practicality of a van. If Audi, BMW and Mercedes can make electric wagons, why on earth can't Tesla? Online forums are already abuzz with conversions, where enthusiasts are cutting up their new Teslas with a Flex-saw because Elon is still ignoring their loud warnings. Tesla, stop sleeping and finally listen to Europe, which has been screaming for a "fršolnga" with an electric heart for almost a decade.
3. Tesla MPV for families (the car that will finally silence the kids in the back seats)
The comments make it clear that while the Model X is beautiful and great for Instagram, for many families it simply doesn't offer enough space to fit three kids, a dog, and a set of skis. Tesla needs a true family MPV, the kind of car you can easily pack away half the living room without losing your temper or dignity. Why not create an electric competitor to the Volkswagen Multivan or even Renault's Espaço? After all, parents want electric cars too, not just a sinfully expensive SUV with doors that open like the spaceship Enterprise.
4. Electric delivery (so that pizza delivery people can finally arrive in 2025)
After browsing the forums, we quickly notice that many are demanding an electric version of the classic delivery van. Elon, where is the competition to Mercedes' eSprinter or Ford's E-Transit? Companies are clamoring for a delivery van that would combine Tesla's technology with the practicality of everyday city deliveries. When pizzas can arrive electrically and silently, we will know that we are living in the real future. For now, it seems as if Elon is dreaming more of Mars than of emission-free burek delivery.
5. Tesla electric convertible (because we deserve the wind in our hair and electrons in our hearts)
Among all the comments, there is one that surprised even us – the desire for a Tesla electric convertible. Elon has been promising a Roadster 2.0 for years, but that’s not what ordinary mortals want. We want a simple, affordable electric car that they can drive along the Coast in the summer without having to sell their weekend. A convertible that would allow for electric enjoyment with the sounds of the sea while passersby wonder what the hell is buzzing so quietly past them. Tesla, please make an electric convertible for the people!
Elon, listen to the people, because sometimes they know better than you.
Tesla has already proven that it can change the world. Now it's time to prove that it can listen. If Elon really reads Twitter, as he claims, he should start reading the forums. The demands that future electric vehicle buyers will put at the forefront are clearly written there. Tesla has the opportunity not only to follow trends, but also to create them - but only if it remembers to listen to the voices of its biggest fans. After all, the customer is always right - especially when it comes to electric cars.
