People literally don't care, they just a car that will go fast in a straight line even though they never floor it. Handling, steering, etc. don't register in the minds of anyone. I can't recall the last time I saw a Tesla driving fast, they just want the bragging rights.

Even among the car enthusiast community, it is probably a minority of us who even care how much a car weighs. We gravitate toward brands like Porsche, BMW, Alfa Romeo. The people who just want to drive fast boats love Mercs Audis Teslas etc.
