> many cars in two weeks as Tesla does in a year. You should update your views then. Tesla is getting close to 1 million cars per year this year. VW is about 10 million per year. But comparing to VW is one thing, comparing it to BMW or Geely is another. If you compare it to BMW for example Tesla is around 40% and by next year likely above 50%. The 'Tesla is tiny and therefore not representative' argument is starting to get a bit tricky. > as much marketing for Tesla overall as it is an actual product That quite the claim. Tesla is literally spending a billion+ on a gigantic factory for it that is already being built. Its the most pre-order product in automotive history. Its their attempt at going after the biggest and most profitable part of US automotive market. There are 2 million pickups sold in the US alone. The earning and profit potential from just this market alone is gigantic. I know that 'Cyberturck fake product' is the newest twitter anti-Tesla bandwagon but those claims have no credibility. Product announcement do count as marketing however, I would agree. In general, those kind of events are just not very common. Events like this happen really only 1-2 a year max. GM for example has been doing a huge amount of marketing for the Lyric Crossover coming in 2023. However, nobody seems to car about another GM CUV type vehicle so it doesn't 'feel' like they are doing as much, but they are clearly doing much more.
