>They sat on their asses changing the grill shapes and let an upstart undercut them

Or...maybe no one has figured out how to produce an economically viable electric car yet, Tesla included?

I mean, if already having the company, product and distribution is such a huge advantage, then the competitors have massive leverage, no? Or do you think Tesla has "already won"?



They did have massive leverage, the whole point of my post was they did not manage use it and are blame-shifting.

Tesla loses money due to continuing massive capital investment into production facilities, they still sell each car for more than what it costs to produce.

It is a rapid growth problem, certainly one of those things that Porshe executives are not familiar with.
