Selling 40,000 or 50,000 units in the first year for a new electric car, would be a solid accomplishment.

Infiniti sold something like 60,000 Q50s globally in 2017 by comparison, for a sedan line they've been selling for decades (the G37 & G35 prior).

Nissan only sold 27,000 Leafs in the US + Europe in 2017, after seven years of availability.
