IMHO, this is nonsense. General Motors (the stodgiest of the big old-school car companies) is already, today, mass-producing two EV models (Bolt and Volt) in much bigger numbers than Tesla. Car companies see the writing on the wall. They don't love gas-burning motors, they love making money.
- djrogers 9y agoThe Volt is not an EV, it’s a hybrid. If it has an ICE it’s not an EV, it’s a hybrid.
- greglindahl 9y agoBolt+Volt sales: January 2018: 1,177 + 713 = 1,890 February 2018: 1,424 + 983 = 2,407 Model 3 deliveries: January 2018: 1,875 February 2018: 2,485 Now add in Model S and Model X at ~100,000/year, and who is producing what in "much bigger numbers than Tesla"? Bolt and Volt are not "mass produced" to the likes of GM. They're experiments.
