Tesla makes just four (4) models off of two EV platforms. All of Tesla's Models are visually outdated. The legacy manufacturers are developing EV while still developing and supporting a vast legacy ICE vehicle fleet including light-duty trucks, delivery vehicles, heavy-duty trucks, and a highly diversified light-duty passenger vehicles.

Making it sound like Ford (and the others) lose $33K per EV (as compared to Tesla) is not framing the business situation from the correct view. Of course Tesla can make a profitable EV, that's all it does. It has no legacy costs to cover and has not re-platformed any of it's vehicles in the past six years. Tesla does not make a 4x4 ORV (Jeep, Bronco, Land Cruiser), does not make a sedan-based convertible, does not make a work truck, does not make a work van, does not have a heavy-duty line of cab/chassis trucks. It makes just two outdated platforms.
There is a new car coming on Nov 30, you know, the Cybercunk… I mean Cybertruck?
