$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$
Now, when choosing between a budget $BYD COMPANY(01211)$ $BYD Co., Ltd.(BYDDF)$ and a slightly pricier Tesla, which would you prefer? These are not cars in the same league. And have you heard of Tesla's affordable model launching next year? Ignoring this fact while forecasting sales raises questions about bias toward BYD's dominance.
