The majority is due to the fact that Tesla's valuation skyrocketed in 2020-2021. The second-largest car maker by market cap is Toyota at 217B. (They're about double VW group, the next-largest.)

Tesla's market cap is now 740B. For a while there it was over 1T. Here's a fun visualization:

Hopefully they will produce 800k EVs. In 2020, they produced 263k EVs, so they'll roughly need to triple production.

Tesla produced 936k cars last year, so VW will probably need to build more than 800k EVs to surpass Tesla in 2022.
