And yet somehow they never made 100% electric cars, and also no hybrid cars that were desirable outside of the eco-hippy niche.



Sales data says otherwise:

In January 2020, Toyota passed the milestone of more than 15 million self-charging hybrid vehicles

If every vehicle sold by Tesla since its inception up to the most recent Tesla sales figures released for Q1 of 2022 are accounted for, there are over 2,645,000 Teslas on the road worldwide


Sure, cheap hybrids. Nobody is buying them because it's their dream car though, it is just affordable and cheap to run. Tesla makes cars that are desirable.
