- netsharc 4y agoI wonder if the average customer knows about the cult of Musk, or if they're aware of him as much as they know the CEO of the fridgemaker Bosch (if you're asking "who's the CEO of Bosch", yeah that's what I'm wondering if that's the reaction of the average people to "CEO of Tesla"). My instincts is electric cars are probably flying off the shelves in Europe now due to gas prices (but on the other hand, hello recession), maybe if German car buyers don't know about Musk the German media should start printing more about him to boost the sales of VW and other German cars, and Musk can tweet about conspiracies...
- ahahahahah 4y ago> sadly for them Tesla is growing even faster VW grew significantly faster in bev sales from 2020 to 2021 than Tesla did (and that's talking growth by absolute numbers, not relative).
- vardump 4y ago2020 VW sold 231600 BEVs. 2021, 452900. So 221300 more. 95.6% growth. 2020 Tesla sold 499535 BEVs. 2021, 936222. 436687 more. 87.4% growth. So VW did not grow faster than Tesla by absolute numbers. VW did have a higher growth percentage, though.
- ahahahahah 4y agoYou're totally right, I did some dumb math.
