I just looked up the cost of a '22 Chevy Bolt, MSRP is $33k for the cheapest model. I payed $42k for a model 3, so its not like a tesla is 2x the competition, and saying "twice or thrice" is pretty disingenuous when the real difference is closer to 30%.

I was in the market for both vehicles. On ground prices for the Bolt did not approach Msrp. You had deals lowering them to 25-30k. And Tesla sales were typically not its cheapest models.
They weren't selling for MSRP. Take a look at firsthand reports and people are getting them for $22-29k out the door and after tax.
