That's myopically complacent; 20 years ago some car makers probably said the same thing: bah, Musk doesn't know how to make cars. Now something like every other new car on North American roads is a Tesla.
That battery marker is probably toast.
>Now something like every other new car on North American roads is a Tesla.
That’s not even close to being true. Toyota, alone, sold more vehicles in the US than Tesla did globally.

Perhaps you meant electric vehicles? Which your statement about count sold more accurate, but overall sentiment, still off.

Source? I could see that being true for EVs, but I can't see it being true for all cars in general.
Ford sold almost as many trucks as Tesla did units total for 2023, so there's no source, unless things changed very recently.
Cybertruck. That is all.
