One key difference is that for Tesla, 500k cars is a huge amount of the total cars it's sold in the last 5 years. More than a third. Has any automaker ever had a recall on such a huge proportion of their cars?
- vardump 5y agoTesla has sold about 1.4M cars in just last two years. 500k last year and 910k (likely more) this year. Next year Tesla is going to sell probably at least 1.5M cars. Given they have two new factories, and Tesla Shanghai factory is expanding again, 2M wouldn't surprise me.
