Ever since General Motors “Killed the Electric Car” in the early 2000s, the Big 3 automakers have been clueless to their own best long term interests and dragged their feet on EVs, until it became clear that Tesla was had not only eaten their lunch but was raiding their refrigerator as well.
Real questions as to whether the GM, Ford, and Stellantis are going to catch up and survive this transition.
Above, analyst from research firm CFRA has some useful stats.
Next, really good analysis from a Bloomberg panelist.
“Some of these companies struggling with execution issues.”
“Slapdash effort” not enough.
Below, Climate Envoy John Kerry makes a salient point about the campaign of disinformation against EVs. (should start at about 5:40)
EV’s are a sham solution to a bogus problem. AGW is pseudo science, as 3 recent peer-reviewed papers show:

Mr Russell- you are either an idiot or being paid by fossilfuel interest. the papers you refer to are not peer reviewed. there has been a global scientific consensus for 40 yrs . ask NADa; NOAA; NAt Academy os sciences in every country.
Are those the only 2 options? Where did you get the education you pretend to? All 3 referenced papers are peer-reviewed and in prestigious journals. Why lie? It makes you seem unhinged.
What, you want something more prestigious than coverage from Falun Gong’s The Epoch Times? Picky picky!
It would be a shame if you were interested at all in the truth.
None of the papers were produced by the Epoch Times. Do you blame the Post Office when you get bad news in the mail? What a poseur.
Were you actually able to locate these “peer-reviewed papers from prestigious journals”? I balked at watching an Alex Newman video that would spoon-feed me out-of-context crap.
Anyone can find them. Even you, perhaps.

Ah, the argument to authority. Invalid.
What I like about Twitter/X is that is chock full of peer-reviewed research, unlike those silly scientific and engineering journals that just reflect popular delusions and propaganda mills.
You’re not very curious, are you? X is just the conduit. It’s easy to track down the studies. Well, maybe not for you.
BYD is close to bringing Tesla Killer EVs to the US. They entire US auto industry seems intent on self-destruction.
If they snooze, they lose. There are plenty of “foreign” automakers that already build in the US. BYD will just be one more.
BYD already makes more cars than Tesla and they’re cheaper. Tesla is doomed. So are all the rest.

I suggest you look into motivated cognition. I think the shoe fits.
I looked it up. Saw a picture of you.
I find it astonishing that there is still any debate (among a very tiny group) about climate change, but there Ya go! 97% of Earth’s physical and chemical scientists and the organizations they work with concur that human activity is responsible for our heating atmosphere and the radical weather it produces. That’s good enough for me.
