Is Porsche The Tesla Killer??

I have blown the doors off of two porsches in my lifetime with other cars, the 1st time was on I-5 up in Wash State, I won but it cost me the car, my license, 1500 dollars, two pay grades, half a months pay for 3 months and my car a 70 Camaro....The 2nd time was over in Germany, I shoe horned a 5.0 built like no ones business and it was my Porsche Killer, It was a 85 Ford Capri...

Nope. Tesla's strategy requires other companies to roll out 'competing' products. Their tactical competition is not other car manufacturers it is the states and dealerships. Their operational competition is not the other car manufacturers, it's the internal combustion engine. Their Strategic competition is not other car manufacturers, it is the carbon fuel economy.


Making money isn't the goal, changing the world is. Making money gives them more leverage to work on changing the world. (And they're doing pretty good at making money too.)

The more other companies start making more EVs the more Tesla's strategy moves forward, that's why they released their patents .

I beg everyone on RallyPoint to take the (considerable) time to read the second link. IT makes things pretty clear, and is a great read!

I think that Porsche won't ever make an "affordable" version such as Tesla is saying they will here soon. I could definitely be wrong though and hope I am!
