Elon Musk ehose name is an anagram for Lone Skum did not invent the electric car they already existed for many years before he started selling them
Someone showed me a car that they converted to an electric car which had multiple dar batteries that they said they would recharge in their garage once
Either they were pranking me or electric cars existed for a long time
I do not know enough about cars so they could have tricked me
But there were also remote control toy cars for several decades
It was so long ago and I know so little about cars I can not answer detailed questions about what happened. But at least I knew enough back then to know that I did not understand what I was being shown. Some really stupid people would just believe what he said because he told them so and believe they knew enough about cars to trust him.
