Around 10 French clients with leases on Teslas are suing the US carmaker, run by Elon Musk, because they consider the vehicles to be “extreme-right” symbols, the law firm representing them said on Wednesday.

Maybe not, but there’s some merit to it. Initially it was a highly desirable car, now one is ashamed to be in because owner is a Nazi. Another problem is that there’s much higher risk that someone else will damage it (again, because of the owner).
Also: this was not accidental but a willful decision made by the company. If they did just Boeing it you would not have a case.
That should increase the insurance premium and therefore the lease as well due to the risk
Ya, I’m guessing insurance costs have risen and that definitely comes into play.
There’s absolutely merit to the idea, but probably not merit legally. But who knows, legalities are labyrinthine and stupid and vary from country to country.
