Most manufacturers already were working on hybrids, which to this day are still suprerior to EVs. Chevy Volt, outside of being Chevy, was still one of the best cars ever made for utilitarian purpose. Nobody wanted to foot the bill to do electric conversions until this was necessary.
Tesla only opened up a market segment for high end electric cars, which I guess is cool, but far from revolutionary. The model 3 was a big success only because again, it was subsidized. Meanwhile BYD actually makes cheap affordable electric cars, and we both know why they are not sold in US.
