Tesla was way out front on EV technology and branding. On the tech side, China has suprassed them, by a big margin. And, their branding is suffering, partly because of the things Blu mentioned.
I don't see how Tesla is a viable product going forward, except in a tariff protected market.
Unless they pull a self-driving vehicle out of their hat (is there a market for those, other than delivery? and there are others working on it) I wouldn't be surprised to see Tesla declare bankruptcy in the next five years.
