> The likelihood some traditional carmaker will beat Tesla at EVs eventually is fairly high.

This feels a lot like the statements people made about Apple at the start of the smartphone revolution. Plus they’ve had a long time already to beat Teslas at EVs - if they haven’t by now why should they in future?

They're pretty close to beating Tesla by now, no? Tesla has 14% market share, with VW now at 11%
