Thank you for correcting me. My original comment was incorrect, but the point still stands.
Dodge: 1900
Ford: 1903
GM - 1908
Chevrolet - Formally "Chevrolet Division of General Motors Company" is a division of GM founded in 1911
Jeep - not a car company but a division of FCA founded in 1943
Chrysler - "Fiat Chrysler America" aka FCA, was a division of Fiat founded in 1925
The last US car company to be founded was GM, in 1908, all of the others are simply divisions of existing entrenched players internationally. Tesla is the first to do this from scratch in the US in > 100 years. They are definitely the first to try it with EVs.
