- Sen. Mark Kelly says he’s “looking into” offloading his Tesla.
- He wouldn’t be the first big name to do so.
- Other prominent figures have sold their Teslas over Elon Musk’s actions or his support of President Donald Trump.
Sen. Mark Kelly might become the latest big name to get rid of his Tesla over Elon Musk’s politics.
The Arizona Democrat told reporters on Tuesday that he’s “looking into” selling his Tesla, though he noted “there’s things I like about it.”
“It’s kind of cheaply built on the inside, but I love the performance,” he said.
His remarks come amid his recent dust-up with Tesla’s CEO, Elon Musk, who called the senator a “traitor” for visiting Ukraine.
If Kelly follows through with his sale, he wouldn’t be the first prominent figure to part with his Tesla. Some other big names have offloaded their Teslas because of Musk.
