Tesla is all about demonstrating how innovative and ahead of the curve they are.
Meanwhile, other companies are establishing their place in the electrified vehicle market and are doing it with all privately raised money. Don't forget Tesla received massive government loans through the dept. of energy, iirc $550M at one point. There will reach a time when the electrification itself becomes pretty well established, probably everyone being able to access Superchargers etc. Consistency in the cooling, range, battery life, ability to resist spontaneous combustion, etc. At that point it will get back to who makes a car that you find attractive and useful and that you can easily live with.
I went with Volvo mild hybrid since my mileage is very low these days, but the deal maker was Android Auto.
