Chevy Bolt Challenges Tesla Model 3
- Corrado 10y agoI think the automakers, and the business reports, are missing the point of the Tesla (again). They think it's about simply making a car that has a better {thing} than Tesla, whether that is range or the size of the touchscreen or even the number of cars they can pump out. It's not. There is a reason that Tesla had 400,000 pre orders for the Model 3 and it's not because it has a cool key. Tesla is bringing all of the pieces together in a way that no current automobile manufacturer will. Could an existing car company (Toyota, Chevy, Porsche, etc.) beat the Tesla at the EV game? Maybe. But I think its far more likely that we are witnessing a paradigm shift and the existing companies are like the carriage makers in the early 1900's trying to compete with the Model T. How many vehicles to you see on the road built by the Frey Carriage Company?
