Electrify America has an order of magnitude more money to spend on charging than Tesla used to build their supercharger network.
That said, they seem to be using it to buy charging networks but so far the experience isn't improving. Conventional EV roadtrip charging is years behind Tesla.
I'm not sure "premium branding" for the competition matters vs Tesla, as I don't think the latter has a downmarket reputation. Interior/existing brand relationships I can see helping the conventional players. Range doesn't seem to be there even on the models supposedly coming out this year. It seems like we keep hearing the Tesla killer is coming Real Soon Like Now.
Still, I ultimately agree they need to sustain through the onslaught, it just seems like it's taking longer than expected.
