Ford maybe not depending on the model, but BMW almost certainly.
This isn’t a Tesla-specific thing, it’s a high-end luxury / performance vehicle thing. A crash involving a 1998 Chevy Astro will just have “a van” in the headline, but a Land Rover / Jaguar / Mercedes / etc crash article will specify the brand in the headline.
A Lamborghini, Ferrari, or worse yet Koenigsegg / Bugatti / Pagani level crash can make the national news. Tesla is a brand worthy of mention in headlines, but it ain’t alone.
