Please. GM has nowhere near the EV manufacturing capacity of Tesla. They also have a dealer network that is not interested in pushing EVs over internal combustion vehicles.

And yet GM has an available EV car and Tesla does not.

And yet Tesla will not be able to deliver the cheap model 3 and GM has been doing it.

That's a substantial claim - without any evidence. No surprise though - it's easy to be pulled into the Musk hype.

What? Tesla is pumping out electric cars in lots and are only expanding production with the Model 3.

The Bolt has been selling at between 1.5 and 1k per month while the production of the supply-limited model 3 is approaching 5k per week.

I guess I'm crazy and got pulled into the Musk hype.

I'm guessing they will. Right now though, you have a point there, the model 3 is more expensive than the Bolt.
