Bingo
Let's remember that Tesla doesn't have a demand problem but an enviable supply constraint that should be resolved once Austin and Berlin operate at full capacity.
The naysayers telling competition is going to eat Tesla's lunch have been saying it for at least 3 years, yet Tesla remains firmly in the lead and competition is.... Maybe 2023?
The EV market is expanding, through supply and demand as well as government edicts. In 12 years time, I expect 80+% of the Euro market will be EVs and 60+% of the US market. Some red, oil states will have legislated required gas stations and taxed EVs high enough to keep them out of state. And those who whine about government subsidies will find it totally normal to support the American way of life!
I don't subscribe to the hype though I'm enthusiast about Tesla future. Right now, they are pricey vehicles targeted at the wealthy. They need to come out with that lower cost vehicle. They need to resolve the charging issue that will become a real problem when EVs are at real scale. They need to improve their interiors which is a bit lacking for the luxury segment. We shall see about how demand stands up in 2023 with the macroeconomic conditions. We have already seen cracks in the recent months.
So yeah the mandate is to go EV but there will be growing pains and I think the ICE infrastructure will persist a big longer than some people might like.
