The point was that Tesla is more than a decent car - it's an entire ecosystem, including providing the power for the cars at home. They have the solar power, batteries and cars all sorted out now, and it's just a matter of ramping up production of all of them. The auto industry is shipping widgets, and Tesla is shipping solutions.
It might be basic - but that's what they said about Japanese cars in the 1970s, about anything in the classic Clayton Christensen sense of a disruptive product. It might be expensive - but demand overwhelms supply.
It's a war - the others just don't realise they are both in a war and have largely lost already.
and I am delighted that Tesla will win - the climate crisis we are in and entering into is terrifying enough without the prospect of pumping even more CO2e into the atmosphere.
