Let's be clear, we had EVs in the 1960s. The idea does not belong to Tesla. No-one is "eating their lunch" because it's not their lunch. Car manufacturers come and go, again something I have witnessed many times.

- beardyw 2y agoGood point. I was meaning I remembered them.
- taylodl 2y agoYes, someone is eating their lunch: Tesla's sales are down while industry sales are up. That means Tesla is losing market share. That's the essence of someone eating your lunch. Also, we've had EVs since the 19th century. https://www.caranddriver.com/features/g43480930/history-of-electric-cars/ https://www.caranddriver.com/features/g43480930/history-of-e...
