Those lots are not sales locations. They are used to place vehicles manufactured and recorded as sold (reported sales from an assembly plant are to the manufacturer's sales organization).
There are dealers with vehicles stuffed into non showroom lots as the manufacturers require the dealers to purchase inventory. Las Vegas off 95 near Durango has dealer lots with new vehicles parked very close together. These vehicles still have protective wrapping. There are no flashy signs in these lots. No banners. No people.
Near Detroit off I75 south of Flat Rock is a vast field of brand new Ford vehicles. Detroit Metro airport has the same thing for Chrysler.
It's called "channel stuffing". The vehicles are considered sold and the financial reports look great to keep up an inflated share price.
In MuskCar's case it is vehicles that were hastily assembled under an open air tent and cannot pass final quality for delivery to customers. To meet a deadline to support an inflated share price.
Now open up the closet, and look at where the energy to charge electric vehicles comes from currently.
An aging power grid powered by fossil fuels or nuclear waste creation.
Mass conversion to electric will be a mass disruption of the current economy in many areas. Misery. More opioids.
Just so you can have an electric vehicle and feel good.
