Automaker Tesla has frequently been deemed one of the Big Tech companies, though its inclusion is subject to wide debate. Opponents to its designation as a tech company include Stephen Wilmot, a correspondent for The Wall Street Journal, who raises concerns regarding the supply chain, especially raw materials, semiconductor shortages, and the price of electric vehicle batteries.[51] Business Insider concurs, stating that because Tesla makes more cars, it should be classified as an automaker and should aspire to be more like Honda.[52] In support of the designation include Al Root of Barron's, who argues while Tesla isn't a good tech company due to factors of the car market, but regardless still a tech company.[53] Fortune also designated Tesla as a tech company when reporting Big Tech's 2022 Q1 earnings, and The Washington Post argues that Tesla's vehicles are comparable to Apple's iPhone and its walled garden ecosystem.[54][55]
