Perhaps worth noting, too, that Tesla have gone from >80% BEV market share in the US in 2020 to (probably) below 50% right now. (Probably because they were at just over 50% in January, and analyst predictions had them dropping below 50% within months.)
They're still absolutely dominant in the US, but losing ground fast. And, anecdotally, their BEV market share in Europe (based on what I see on the road and whilst shopping for used cars) is much lower. In the UK, I believe it's below 20%.

- 0xbadc0de5 3y agoIf you think Tesla's existence is a net-negative because you don't agree with everything Musk does, you've lost the plot. They're still driving innovation in this space, still employing tens of thousands of people, still providing shareholder value and still making cars people want to own.
