Even if you ignore all that as well, the last time quality/reliability testing results were posted here the only thing worse than Tesla was Range Rover.

1 thing you can't deny is they managed to build up with little competition

i suppose crazy culture helped get them there (building out of tents, telling staff to live at work)

rivian still a bit aways from net profitability despite repurposing an existing automaker plant and lucid already burned 15 billion

Is Tesla still the only EV maker that actually makes money?

Yes, Tesla has often been profitable
only because of selling regulatory (carbon) credits, meaning it would have reported losses in many quarters without this income, especially in early 2025 when credit sales surpassed net income; however, analysts warn this easy money source is shrinking, and recent policy changes (like ending federal EV tax credits and relaxing CAFE standards) significantly threaten its core profitability, making it more reliant on its core auto and energy businesses to stay in the black as credit revenue disappears by 2027.

The company published late Monday a consensus of sell-side analyst expectations that calls for 422,850 delivered units in the December quarter, down 15% from a year earlier. That’s more pessimistic than estimates compiled by FactSet, which expects 447,000 units sold, or the Bloomberg-compiled average of about 445,000 deliveries.

Tesla is set to record its second straight annual sales decline, according to the company-compiled consensus. The company is set to report deliveries of about 1.6 million vehicles in 2025, a more than 8% drop compared with a year earlier.
Meanwhile their share price is up 12% YTD.

As they say, Tesla is not a car company. It's a tech company that has a subsidiary that sells EVs.
