@caseyliss @jaytorres Ahh yes, Tesla should've made a family car instead of the CT. It would have been a complete game-changer and become the best-selling car in the world. Oh wait:
EVs ranked by total unit sold in the U.S. in Q1 2026.
1) Tesla Model Y: 78,591
2) Tesla Model 3: 31,672
3) Toyota bZ: 10,029
4) Hyundai Ioniq 5: 9,790
5) Chevrolet Equinox EV: 9,589
6) Rivian R1S: 5,494
7) Ford Mustang Mach-E: 4,600
8) Lexus RZ: 4,456
9) Tesla Cybertruck: 3,519

@caseyliss @jaytorres And btw, Tesla *IS* making a bigger family car. Not just the new longer Model Y L 6-seater, which was already launched in Asia and Australia and is a huge hit there, but a true 3-row SUV as well. In the meantime, Model Y is the best-selling car in the world (again - it swapped places with the RAV4 briefly), CT is the best-selling EV pickup, and the new lower-cost AWD Cybertruck is sold out until Spring 2027. So I'm not sure Elon's "fragile ego" is the problem here.
