I don't think anyone has done particularly well with EV's given there 1% market share. Maybe when they start making them that look like a car rather than a kitchen appliance they can sell some of them.
Tesla went from minor player to outselling the Germans combined. The Model 3 ain't pretty, but it certainly sells. The Model Y, if they can meet demand will just clobber the Germans further.

This is all playing out like the early 90's when German car fans and the manufacturers seemed convinced that the Japanese could never take their market. Seems like they're just recovering from that mistake, only to make it again.
