I’m sure nobody at BMW will mind me taking this thread off topic since they are rightfully being raked over the coals over this embarrasing and hideous concept, but...

Tesla’s gross profit margin on Model 3 is currently over 20% according to their latest quarterly earnings report in October which is huge. It’s a very profitable car for them now, not so much in the beginning of production but your data us outdated. They were making less than 5% for a while but have been able to push profitability up rapidly.
