Re: [EVDL] Prejudice& discrimination: MI Denies Tesla Dealership license
There may be some component of prejudice or discrimination involved here, but IMO Cor is on target. It's all about protectionism. Business is always for "free markets" as long as those markets benefit their bottom line. When "free markets" harm their profits, suddenly they're all in favor of laws to "level the playing field," by which they mean "put a thumb on my side of the scale." It doesn't have to be that way, and hasn't always been that way, but as of now we as a nation (maybe we as a world) seem to have decided that this is the system we want. So it goes. If Tesla truly want their business model to prevail, they can make it happen the same way the auto dealers have made theirs the norm. All it takes is money. Tesla will probably have to spend less on research and product development so they can spend much more on politics -- consistently more than the auto dealers and mainstream automakers spend, over a period of years. Then doors will begin to open for them.

Re: [EVDL] Michigan Denies Tesla Dealership license
It is called protectionism. Funny to hear people talk out both sides of their faces, one side claiming the best for customers and free market, while at the other side they object to and force customers to exclusively buy through their organisations who have pretty much monopoly, as if monopoly is not the opposite of what they claim. There is a reason that none of the 2 dozen cars I ever bought was from a dealer.

Re: [EVDL] Michigan Denies Tesla Dealership license
I wonder that as well. I'm sure that they're trying to be ideologically pure but sometimes you have to be willing to play the game. They could easily find people to run dealerships who will be cooperative. To some extent the dealerships could be just a formality. And, anyway, it doesn't hurt to have physical presences for repair purposes. While I don't support forcing them to have dealerships it is currently the way things are going. You either play or you take your ball home. I'd think it would be in their best interests at this point to go ahead and sell through some dealerships.

You could soon be able to charge your electric car alongside petrol pumps, as Shell UK is currently working on introducing them to its service stations as early as next year. Emails released after a Freedom of Information request from anti-pollution site DeSmogBlog shows that Shell officials have discussed introducing both electric chargers and hydrogen fuel pumps. The emails also show that the fuel giant has asked the UK government how serious it is about wireless charging roads, which can charge electric cars without the need to plug it into a charger. Electric charging points and hydrogen pumps It marks a radical new departure for the company, which in the past has largely backed biofuels as a better alternative to petrol and diesel rather than electricity or hydrogen. Asked by the Guardian if the emails confirm that Shell is developing charging points, a spokeswoman said: “We are examining the potential to introduce electric vehicle charging points across some parts of our UK retail network from early 2017 onwards.” It’s not clear how many of Shell’s service stations would get electric charging points or who will provide the technology, but the move would put the company into competition with firms like Ecotricity and Tesla. Radical departure for fuel giant Data from the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) shows that there are around 20,000 electric vehicles on UK roads as of last year, a number which has slowly but steadily increased. Lobbyists and policymakers see electric cars as the best way to tackle pollution and meet climate targets, but a group of MPs warned earlier this month that the UK is failing to encourage take-up fast enough.
