The short answer is that Tesla is winning the electric car race because of its high-powered battery tech and because they take more risks.
The biggest problem faced by the electric car market is range. Tesla’s battery technology gives more to its owners with extended ranges of up to 375 miles.
To add all this power,
Tesla
had to cut the fat. By ditching traditionally weighty luxury features and multi-gear transmission, they were able to prioritize aerodynamics and send more power to the front and rare wheels. Tesla’s business model makes them stand out more than anything else. Focusing on direct sales while scrapping the dealership and service model allows them to save tons of money.
The auto giants are innovators, to say the least. They’ve made significant changes to the auto industry as we knew it. When you shop for insurance with

, you can find out just how much Tesla has also influenced car insurance. Whether or not you own a Tesla, Jerry will find a policy that works for you.
