Not to mention that at this same point 10 years into Tesla’s existence the Model S was in full production of 1,000 cars a week and Motor Trend Car of the Year.
It took them 2.5 years to go from making 2 dozen cars per week to 1000 per week.
1000 a year is pretty good for luxury eco friendly car in 2009.
Rivian cannot sit in the same place. They have to carve out some market segment that loves electric but hates Tesla or get enough funding to stick around for 10 years when Tesla may be vulnerable to competition.
