Yup, just going back to the root of this thread. As that article states, even in Australia, Telsa is still “comfortably deliver[ing] the most electric vehicles of any brand.”
I wouldn’t be shocked if that flips in the coming years. Telsa has a toxic CEO which is bad for marketing, and many people question their attention to detail. But, going back to my original point, Telsa is still the number 1 brand in western countries by a very large margin.
Not trying to be a Tesla fanboy - I’m in camp Volvo / Polestar. I’m just presenting the numbers. BYD is crushing it because of their domestic sales.

I have a Kona Electric but I think my next car will be either a Polestar 2 if I can afford it or an EX30. Volvo/Polestar are doing things extremely well

If you haven’t, I would make sure you test drive a polestar 2. I personally wasn’t impressed with the quality. And trust me. I really wanted to be. Just felt super super cheap

Hmmm I haven’t. I’ll need to give it a go in a year or so
