The sales numbers provided by the company-owned shops allowed them to claim tens of millions in government rebates. Now those numbers are under scrutiny.
According to the article that would be 2 cars/min for 72 hours straight (that’s three 24-hour shifts in a row) spread over 4 dealerships. It’s so ridiculous, absolutely no possible way that happened. Not unless a billionaire came along and simply bought them en masse
I hadn’t thought of this until reading the post I replied to, but that’s actually at least something you could attempt to defend somehow, rather than just flat out lying about number of sales which is what I was assuming all along.

Are we suggesting Musk did this to get the rebate before it expires and then was planning to “resell” them in the future?
No we aren’t “suggesting” at all.

It’s probably 1 rebate per customer.
