Tesla sales didn't meet goals and their stock took a hit. Even in the age of EVs we are seeing growth in petrol vehicles. Tesla needs to release the Model Y soon or continue to miss out on the action as the model x is too expensive for the mass market.
Comparing YTD 2018/2019 change between the TM3 and all the BMW passenger cars is interesting. The TM3 US sales have gone from 78k Jan-sept 2018 to 107.4k over that time in 2019.

It is expected that the TMY will cut at TM3 sales... but how will it impact the X1/2/3 sales? If the functionality is there in the TMY, BMW should be worried because the price cost might be lower.
