Tracking monthly US auto sales has been a fascinating endeavor this past year. Unfortunately, we don’t get data from some brands — Tesla, all Ford Motor Company brands, GM brands, and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles brands, Jaguar Land Rover no longer report monthly sales. However, there are 17 brands that do report monthly US sales, so let’s have a look at them

Credit to Author: Frugal Moogal| Date: Tue, 05 Nov 2019 23:18:07 +0000

I wasn’t planning on writing this article originally. However, after the incredibly positive Tesla Q3 earnings call, Tesla released its 10Q document with more detail and it started a whole new round of debate from analysts centered around a few things, the biggest being that sales in the United States fell 39% in the third quarter compared to a year ago

Polestar Pricing … Electric Mazda … Tesla Model 3 = #6 In USA — CleanTechnica Top 20

Credit to Author: Zachary Shahan| Date: Tue, 05 Nov 2019 01:40:45 +0000

The most popular CleanTechnica stories of October were led by Polestar and Mazda. Seriously. No offense to Polestar or Mazda (okay, some offense to Polestar and Mazda), but I wouldn’t have seen that coming a mile away. Does this show a great thirst for more EV news beyond Tesla and more serious EV entries? Possibly. Or it was just some lucky timing and catchy headlines. Or all of the above. In any case, that’s where things landed in October. Tesla still dominated the top 20, with 15 out of 20 stories, but it was an interesting phenomenon to see the company almost pushed out of the top

The above graph is to scale. Due to the superior sales of the Model 3 and similar price, the Model 3 revenue laps competitor revenues. How much does it lap competitors? More than 7× as much when compared to the Acura TLX revenue, as one stark example

Credit to Author: Zachary Shahan| Date: Mon, 28 Oct 2019 05:04:56 +0000

The most popular CleanTechnica stories of the past week were led by a (somewhat wild) claim of an aluminum-air battery breakthrough. Yup, really. After that, it was almost all Tesla — Tesla Model 3 sales compared to other top EV sales, buying a gas “luxury car” competitor to a Tesla, Tesla disruption in Norway, Elon Musk and Tesla proving naysayers wrong, a Tesla fire, Tesla software updates

Tesla critics and short sellers have moved a lot of goal posts. I recently highlighted this a bit with the articles “7 Things Tesla Couldn’t Do” and “7 More Things Tesla Couldn’t Achieve,” and have done so much more in our long-running “Tesla Flashbacks” series. Twitter user “The Short Shorts Historian”/@TeslaHistorian recently tackled this matter using another format — a timeline

7 More Things Tesla “Couldn’t” Achieve

Credit to Author: Zachary Shahan| Date: Tue, 22 Oct 2019 02:59:54 +0000

I wrote an article a few days ago about 7 things Tesla “couldn’t do,” according to top experts in the auto field. As it turns out, these are things Tesla actually went ahead and did, while blowing nonchalant kisses at the crowd. Some other ideas for things “experts” were convinced Tesla couldn’t do have come to mind, so here’s a sequel to the article from the other day

There are a handful of hilarious and informative pro-Tesla Twitter accounts. Elon Musk’s may be the most famous (either his or Earl’s), and he’s got a pretty good handle on humor (dad humor), but another tweeter who makes me laugh on a routine basis and who I think more people should follow is The Short Shorts Historian (@TeslaHistorian). This history professor is quite adept at picking LOL-funny tweets from yesteryear and bringing them to the harsh neon lights of modern-day Twitter
