This user meant the price per kWh of battery capacity. The Tesla Roadster was little more than an expensive proof of concept that was vastly inferior compared to the Lotus Elise it was based on.
And then the Model S came out, and while expensive was still a decent all round car. And I’m sure GM could’ve made it cheaper/better if they went that route.
I think you’re suggesting that I’m proposing that GM would have needed to stop building ICE cars and switching to electric overnight, instead of transitioning as technology and economics allowed instead of what they did now, which was ignore the whole thing until Tesla got successful and playing catch up, first to Tesla, now to BYD.
