  Not quite to the point, as the growth of Tesla isn't just a single data point, but the growth is pretty constant over many years.

    Because it’s the initial phase of the curve? COVID is exponential until it isn’t, on what basis do you think it’s fair to extrapolate?

      About 8 years of growth following the exponential curve? Just look at all the quarter numbers. Of course, at a certain point Tesla is going to stop growing exponentially. The competition is growing, the total car market is limited. But if Tesla is continuing on the current trajectory for 2-4 more years, they have a chance at becoming the largest car manufacturer in the world.
