Very even-handed of you John
Very even-handed of you John to mention some positive info on Tesla. I am surprised. To me it says a LOT that Tesla can ship volumes of vehicles that actually compete against huge automotive corporations, who offer dozens of vehicles, as opposed to Tesla's Three BEV models. As to stealing market share from other automakers go it seems to me that most of the new Teslas sold are taking away some other automaker's sales in one way or another. Remember that ALL of the EV sales are still less than 3% of the new car sales market overall, but it's the fact that the Tesla models are often taking the place of the automobile market's higher profit models like high performance sport sedans, coupes and crossovers, that is definitely affecting their future model production plans. This is seen by introductions of new BEVs from Porsche's Taycan, and Audi's E-Tron, to VW, Cadillac, Mercedes, BMW, and even Maserati promising a whole new line up of BEVs coming out over the next couple years.
