> Remember 5 years ago when Telsa fans claimed BEV range and acceleration wasn't possible for legacy automakers?
No, I don't. Its the opposite, most people were saying that legacy makers could do it eventually but they need to make massive investments in EV production, and guess what, they did.
Tesla fan were actually right, it took way longer then people said for real mass market EV to come out.
But of course Tesla got the lead and they are not just outselling everybody else and are still among the leaders in performance and efficiency.
> Ford sell more F series vehicles per year than all tesla models combined - why are you assuming they need to pivot asap to EV only?
They don't but in a few years EV version will outperform the alternative ICE version along pretty much every dimension and there will be huge demand for EV trucks.
The question is if you at that point have the capacity to produce them in accordance with demand.
