I wouldn't call 1% marketshare a "disruption". My point is simply this, I now folks are going to buy Tesla's, as much because it's like having having the latest iPhone or whatever tech you want to use as a comparator.

Most people want a vehicle that feels familiar to them, and none of the current EV's do, they all seem like something out of a 90's sci-fi movie. And to get back to my point of view, the Hummer if it's anything like a real Hummer is the only EV that's going to market that appeals to me so far.
Okay, I'll wait for Coronavirus to infect 1% of the populace before I panic. And it was 2.1% worldwide in 2018, likely closer to 5% in 2019 and certainly higher going forward.
