Honestly Muskās antics, and the lack of CarPlay, are the primary reasons I started looking at EVs other than Tesla when I was ready to make the switch.
This is the crucial point: there are many competitors just stepping up their game in earnest and already Tesla's share is taking a sizeable hit. The fact that Tesla's BEV share has halved with players like Ford, Hyundai/Kia, VW, et al still not anywhere near what their manufacturing capability is actually able to produce should be a wakeup call to those who still believe Tesla's valuation and "insurmountable dominance".
Tesla is either not growing or outright losing market share everywhere where it matters: China, Europe, North America. And the competition has only started. In a few years Tesla is going to become a niche player.
I''m not exactly sure why you think Mach E's are supposed to be limited production vehicles, heck there are many police departments who have bought them.
Jim Farley has even said they want to be the leader in EV sales, get used to it, this Covid era limited supply and chip shortage thing isn't going to last forever! 
When I saw the number sold , I was disappointed that it was so small. With all the hype you would think they would have sold 5 times as many. They claim they will make 300k next year, or to be on a scale to make that much according to Fords own hype. I just donāt see it. I understand why but the huge numbers Ford talks about is really just PR.
Think how many X's you see compared to 3's and Y's....that is the kind of ratio you are looking at in terms of seeing MME's on the road for the near future.For those who prefer limited production vehicles for the exclusivity and avoiding of seeing similar cars on the road. Mach E, for all of it's supply chain issues, is currently the 4th best selling EV and poised to take over 3rd very soon.
considering how successful Giga Shanghai is, Tesla is going to double their manufacturing capacity in about 2 year as Austin and Berlin ramps up. more factories will follow in strategic locations. however, supply constrain will continue to play a role here. again, almost all BEV makers can sell as many cars as they can make.
Numbers are funny things... when you have 80% share, the only place to go is down. At the same time, the Tesla Model Y is the highest revenue car model in the world...(not just EV, all cars)... It will be the highest volume car in the world in 23. More than the F150, more than the Toyota corolla. etc.
I have tried and tried and I cannot tell the models apart, and Teslas are EVERYWHERE in California. I wish I could figure out how many X's I see!
Tesla has already become the "Kleenex" of tissues, or the "Xerox" of photocopiers.
You have to look at the taillights and the door handles in order to distinguish the X from the Y. And yeah, I see a ton of them in the Bay Area all the time. They're literally the Camry and Accords of EVs in terms of popularity.
It takes a while to ramp up production of any vehicle, let alone one that relies on a very constrained supply chain. The battery pack is probably the largest gating factor here.
All well and good but Ford is saying what their production will be for MME and E 150. They know production problems and still say they will build hundred of thousands next year. By the looks of it, that wonāt happen for a long time.
