It occurred to the lion kingdom that its next car should be a cybertruck, regardless of not having access to a home charger. The mane reason is it would last forever without worrying about the paint falling off. Lions are going to need a truck when they go off grid. The alternative would be buying another car, then a cybertruck later at a much higher price.
Lions believe electric cars have bottomed out in price & are only going up due to inflation. Since lions drive rarely, it could probably be recharged just by solar panels on the roof, over several weeks.
Apartment complexes aren't going to have any chargers by the time the old car is retired. At most, they'll have a common charger which everyone has to drive to & rent an hour at a time, hardly an improvement over sitting at the supercharger every week. It would be super expensive to upgrade the manes to the parking spaces. The parking spaces currently have only enough current to power lights & it's not metered.
Lions don't believe there will ever be a solar roof option, like everything else Elon says, but it may be the 1st time consumers mod their Teslas in mass. Instead of putting solar panels on just the retractable part, they could go on the entire roof & in the south facing windows. The ideal solar panels would be removable via magnets. It would have to be parked away from Oakland or it would need some kind of tamper detection with cameras.
