Who had a large scale consumer product before Tesla?

Your claim he didn’t create the market. Who had the market before Tesla? Who else had large scale production before Tesla ?

Who has the largest market share?

Let’s see you prove your claim.

Tesla would have folded if Elon was not part of it. People only started to take notice after the success of Tesla.

Your claim he didn’t create the market

No, you said Tesla created the market…

I said that was false, now your demanding I prove your wrong because you can’t prove your opinion is facts.

That’s not how this is supposed to work…

Yes, I am asking you to back up your claim. Who created the market if it wasn’t Tesla? That isn’t my opinion. That is well well-documented fact.

Tesla’s release positioned it as one of the few successful independent automakers and a pioneer in the electric car market.

If you think the growing electric-car market would exist without Tesla, think again

You seem to be the only person who thinks otherwise.

Your first link doesn’t even mention your claim…

Your second is an opinion piece that doesn’t back up their claims… And I doubt the authors judgement because they said up to 2016 no one was betting on EVs, despite virtually all of the big companies being in the game at that point.

If you set out to prove some people believe it wouldn’t happen without Tesla, congrats.

But I can find an article from someone who thinks the world is flat too, that doesn’t mean the world is flat.
