When I say "mass market" I'm talking about cars that start less than $50,000 (and then it's still sarcastic).

If Tesla are moving faster than everyone else backwards looking metrics should pick up on it soon enough.

Well OK, yes, I kindof missed your "mass market" specifier. Tesla have only shipped a few thousand Model 3's so far. But they have 400,000 reservations that they intend to fulfil in the next 24 months or so. And that's a big challenge to everyone else.
