The tech and featues in a Tesla are far beyond what BYD is even close to delivering.
BYD's growth has been nothing close to Tesla's
Tesla has around four times the net income of BYD despite BYD selling three times as many cars
Telsa is making industry defining changes to manufacturing that BYD hasn't even started on
Telsa is deploying more than double the battery capacity as BYD
Tesla is far more vertically integrated than BYD
Not sure how any of this is resting on laurels or at all a sign that BYD is at risk of being a threat
