Why I love this solution: I love this solution because it appeals to consumers in America. They are trying to make their product cheaper, which will cause more people to buy them. Since their product is 100% electric, it reduces fossil fuels being burned, and we want to get as many electric cars into the world as possible. The gigafactory is making this happen. The factory its self is also eco-friendly, it uses solar panels. Although this is not a nonprofit company, the way they appeal to consumers makes eco-friendly transportation more appealing.
