Without a doubt, It seems like everyone is playing catchup, I'm still shocked how far behind the German car manufacturers are. I recently switched from a BMW M5 to a model S. It's been a great switch for me. Slightly lacking in build quality but made up for in that 0-60 excitement!

They had every oppertunity to get on this. They have government friendly for green cars, they have the scale to build charging infrastructure, they have the programming knowlage and so on.

They could also have jumped in with the Supercharger network and profited from the global network that Tesla is building.

Well, lets see how they recover, by now Tesla is way ahead.
