I'd be willing to bet that most Model S purchased are used as daily drivers. Sure, they are out of reach for most folks, but so is a $65k car. Globally the average price of a new car is probably well under $20k. That doesn't make the Plaid S any less impressive.
Maybe I'm missing something in your response... but I don't think anyone is saying that model S Plaid is not quick, nor an interesting or an advancement in engineering. But I would argue that there is an active market in this country for a 65k vehicle, MANY new pickups are going for around that price range and being bought actively, and upwards into about the 75 - 80k range.... The average price of new car is in this country was 38.960 for 2020... that doesn't mean that a 65k isn't consider premium. I guess my point is this for lets say the average car is 39k for easy rounding, someone can much more easily justify to themselves a 60 or 65k car. But going all the way up over 100k is likely not going to happen. So I'm much more in the belief that the Model S regular at 75k is a much more useful car on the market since it is more in the range, or even the Model 3 since that is about the average.... and thus actually sells in volume. Example: in 2020 Tesla sold, produced, and delivered 54,805 Model S/X, and 454,932 Model 3/Y.... So my point is basically the Model S is useless only to the fringe for an environmental impact point, which the 3 and Y actually make a difference because of volume. But keeping that in mind for prospective, Tesla sold less car globally as a whole as Ford just sold F-Series trucks in the US. So WAY more excited about the F150 lightning and hoping for large scale adoption, as that will make an even larger impact if it sells in volume replacing other F-Series sales.
