- zaroth 7y agoThat is worldwide. I am talking about the US. In the US, BMW’s YoY in 2018 for 3 Series was -25%! [1] Because you know, it makes just a bit more sense to compare them just within the US, where Tesla has had a chance to establish itself somewhat, compared to the 103-year old BMW. The fact that Tesla sells almost 1/10 as many cars as BMW sells worldwide is actually pretty amazing, considering Tesla is selling purely EVs, all made in a single factory in the US. When Tesla builds Giga4 in Europe in a couple years, then you’ll see the same effect there too. There’s a reason BMW just fired their CEO.
