Tesla is continuing its lead in the all electric vehicle market; the Model 3 had a mission to be the affordable Tesla; and the numbers clearly show there’s a pent up demand for an affordable and desirable electric car for the masses. With new products like Tesla Model Y; Cybertruck, and rumors of a possible Chinese made compact car; I believe Tesla should continue its dominance over the auto industry’s electric vehicle competition.
