It's also worth noting that Ford Motor company was founded in 1903. They installed their first moving assembly line at the end if 1913. This is the innovation for which Henry Ford is most famous. By the 1930s, Ford Motor had 30 years of experience. Between 1908 and 1924, Ford built 10 million Model Ts.[0] I don't know if Tesla will build 10 million cars by 2024. I think that would be incredible if they did. Nor do I know if they will be manufacturing 2 million/year by 2030. If that happens, they will have matched Ford. They will have done it in a mature market, unlike Ford. They will have done it with modern manufacturing technology. They will have done it when owning a car is taken for granted. I'm still not sure how that comparison would reflect on Tesla. A comparison with 1918 Ford vs 2018 Tesla seems more relevant than a comparison between 1930s Ford and 2018 Tesla. But it still doesn't seem like a very clean comparison.
