    they haven’t really done much innovating in years.

    They just released a new vehicle (like today). It’s a $45k sedan that does 0-60MPH in 3 seconds.

    Another recent vehicle is the first production vehicle made of stamped cold-rolled steel. It is the first production vehicle with a 48V low-voltage system. It is the first production vehicle with steer-by-wire.

    Not long before that they released a vehicle that’s faster than any production car (when it was released) with triple carbon-sleeved rotors that decimated the 60+MPH EV acceleration problem, and it was a 4-door sedan that costs hundreds of thousands of dollars less than said supercars.

    Now you may not like those features, and you may not like the vehicles, and you may hate the brand and it’s leader, but you can’t say they aren’t regularly innovating. There are lots of super talented engineers at Tesla that are not Musk.
