Tesla has reduced prices, again.
I had little confidence in Tesla's corporate ethics, now I have none. I'll never buy a car from that company again and I'm pleased I got out of Tesla ownership when I did.

The EV market is slowing, for all the reasons we have debated here.

I've been looking at air source heat pumps and after talking to a number of installers I've concluded that the systems on offer are not fit for purpose in any home built before 2015: one installer has told me he has removed more systems or put in parallel gas boilers over the last 6 months than he has installed. We thought about a hybrid system so the heat pump heats water to 55C and then gas takes it up to 70, the temperature the house heating was designed to run at, but it makes no economic sense. So we have given up on heat pumps of any type, instead we will increase our battery storage and fit additional PV panels to take us largely off grid in the summer.
