So... Like every major automobile manufacturer?
Yes, but Tesla is way overvalued, still
They still have a 750~ billion dollar market cap today, placing them at far more than any auto manufacturer on this list
How is this possible? Granted I'm not very knowledgeable about this stuff but really having a hard time understanding how they can be valued so high compared to these other companies that have been around for so much longer with so many more cars on the road etc

The only thing that matters in this late stage capitalism world is “potential growth”, and Tesla makes a fuckload of money per vehicle because they are overpriced to all hell and are built like toys
It costs almost as much as buying a cheap car every couple years just to own a Tesla
