Tesla sells the most EVs, but if you don’t think it sells the best EVs, here are some alternative models that you could choose instead.

Tesla doesn’t have as big a lead over its competitors as it once did. Although its EVs are still among the best, competing automakers have caught up and have even surpassed Tesla in some areas.

You're right. For the US, Tesla is the leading EV manufacturer.

Not just the leading OEM but they sell more than all of the others combined.

China has MASSIVE subsidies for EVs (and many other products). Even ones they export. So they undercut pricing on every other OEM. Not saying it's unfair or bad, just that it's not really a "fair" comparison.
