Oh. Some guy.
Meanwhile I saw Cox Automotive (see quoted part below) shows market share was lower slightly 1st quarter 2023 vs all of 2022 62.4% vs 64.2% As I said competition is coming.
Is it a trend? TWT
New tighter rebate restrictions kick in tomorrow 4/19/23. Will it help or hurt? Same TWT

"Tesla led the way in Q1, helped by sizeable price cuts. Tesla sales were up 24.6% year over year, and the EV pioneer continues to be both the industry’s top-selling luxury make and EV make by far. Tesla’s share of the EV market fell to 62.4%, down slightly from its full-year result in 2022—64.2%—and down significantly from the nearly 79% share Tesla commanded in 2020. Still, a 62% share of the EV market makes Tesla “the market.”
Chevy Bolt sales in Q1 were strong, placing the bowtie brand a distant No. 2 in EV sales; Ford was third. And interestingly, despite solid, popular products from both Hyundai and Kia, EV sales from the brands decreased last quarter. On the luxury side, Audi, BMW and Mercedes all posted strong year-over-year sales growth thanks to excellent new offerings."
