I&#x27;m not convinced that the traditional automaker can even produce a solid electric car.  All attempts so far have been very lackluster and not something that I would purchase.  Tesla came to the table with something completely new and different; they are not a car company that is pivoting, they are a technology company making cars.<p>Competition is a great thing and I&#x27;m looking forward to the benefits it brings (lower price, faster innovation, etc.) but I&#x27;m just not sure that Ford, Toyota, BMW, Porsche, etc. will be the ones that provide it.  I think we might be looking at a sea change, like 100 years ago when all the carriage coach manufacturers tried to make cars.  They will try, but the new upstarts will beat the pants off of them.
