Business Insider is notoriously anti-Tesla. The German company who owns BI is a large stakeholder in Porsche’s EV division. And their articles on German luxury vehicles are basically adverts. They literally have articles criticising Tesla for having video games in the car, then have articles talking about how innovative BMW is for putting video games in their cars.

This article went on for about 20 paragraphs just casting aspersions, and never once compared the numbers to any other manufacturer - making it all meaningless.
