There is a difference between making a few EVs and being able to mass-produce them, particularly if they are unprofitable and your ICE car sales are in freefall.

Tesla sells over 300k cars per year. NIo sold 250k last year.GM sells 20k of just the Chevy Bolt per year. Ford sold 20k of the Mach E.

Define "mass-produced".

I mean, you are technically correct.

Tesla sold 935,000 cars in 2021 and is on track for around 1.3 million in 2022.

Note BMW only sold 2.2 million cars in 2021.

I would define a million per year as definitely mass production. I think less than 100K is definitely not.
