The data indicates that Tesla maintains its dominant position with 194,165 units (up 79% year-over-year) and 66% share. That leaves 100,053 for all of the other brands combined, but the overall market is expanding faster.

An interesting finding is that Tesla is expected to sell more electric cars than Mercedes-Benz does of all of its cars, regardless of the type. Considering the momentum, Tesla soon might be also above all the premium brands:

  • BMW - 236,247 (up 43%)
  • Lexus - 222,956 (up 39%)
  • Mercedes-Benz - 198,703 (up 19%)
  • Tesla - 194,165 (up 79%)
  • Audi - 159,443 (up 45%)
 
GM trademarks three new names for Cadillac; Escalade IQL, Vistiq, and Lumistiq.

Yes, everyone hates alphanumeric names on non-German cars.

Then bashes any new actual names on new vehicles.

I can see #retardiq trending already.


One of the new vehicles will be a CUV below the Lyriq. Hopefully the other is a 7 passenger CUV slotted between Lyriq and Escalade IQL.
