    Yes, I am asking you to back up your claim. Who created the market if it wasn’t Tesla? That isn’t my opinion. That is well well-documented fact.

    https://www.investopedia.com/articles/personal-finance/061915/story-behind-teslas-success.asp

    Tesla’s release positioned it as one of the few successful independent automakers and a pioneer in the electric car market.

    If you think the growing electric-car market would exist without Tesla, think again

    You seem to be the only person who thinks otherwise.

        The first link addressed his claim pretty thoroughly. I suspect you commented that assuming most people would not read it to verify your claim. I have seen you spouting bullshit all throughout this comment section so I had to read it so that I can call you out. You’re either lying or extremely bad at understanding the article. He provided links, you provided bullshit.

        Here is the actual quote from the second article you take issue with: “But Elon Musk’s company has shown that EVs are a viable way to build a business. As recently as 2016, the jury was still out on that matter.” So you twisted shit so much you changed the meaning. That’s either done in bad faith or you’re extremely bad a reading comprehension.

        So could you name any EVs that were available from the big companies in 2016?

        I hate that I am here defending Tesla, but I hate the bullshit coming from you even more.

        Both articles back the claim.

        You have yet to spout anything but your opinion, which goes against everyone else’s opinion.

        The big 3 were not taking EV cars seriously. They did enough to show they were doing it but their focus was ICE.

        Tesla changed that. You are free to stomp your foot all you want but it doesn’t change that Tesla drove the EV market forward. They dominate the EV market for that reason and have the highest percentage of people who would buy another Tesla EV.
