No excuses here. I was in the car business for 30 years. When your product is in demand, you can charge more. You can't tell me you've never seen cars selling for ridiculous pricing, if you attempt to, you're being niave. Look at what has happened to car prices the last few years, 2 year old vehicles were selling for more than MSRP was 2 years prior. Some 10k over 2 YO MSRP. ALL manufacturers of any product ask what they think they can get for said product, when they have to many widgets on the shelf, they sell them for less. Like I said, ALL manufacturers do this. I'm not a Tesla or an electric car fan but why try to discredit a car company for the same practices that every car company does? You're picking the wrong argument. They're all guilty, does it really matter how much over?
If people were willing to pay 41k more than they are today, so be it. Maybe the negative press with car fires has something to do with it. It's a free and fair market, if you don't like the price, don't buy one, that simple. That's what I chose, I don't want one at any price, so I didn't buy one.
