I’ve looked at this trend very worried, since many germans see their car status as a thing of great pride. But since Tesla has surpassed anything people even dreamed of 5 years ago, the question stands to what germans think of this? Do you care? Do you like the new and better alternatives to the old car makers?

For people that need more data to make a concrete statement

Tesla produces a model 3 every 10 hours, vW it’s id.3 every 30 hours.

Tesla regularly sells the most cars of any type in europe, even in march of 2022 and last year

EV revolution hits new milestone as Tesla Model 3 becomes Europe’s best-selling car in September

Tesla also has features that german car makers even lack entirely, or added very recently, like advanced automation or the longest range of any ev’s VW id.3 long range reaches 474 km, Tesla model 3 long range 580 km

And Tesla only seems to pick up speed, with a valuationany times higher than ALL german car makers put together, it seems that the future is bleak for the country to remain the best at cars
