The level of bias in this article makes the "journalist" look like a complete idiot. Yes, Tesla is building the largest battery factory in the world, alongside the largest battery manufacturers in the world for uses far beyond it's electric cars. I'm also a bit curious if this guy is an idiot or just misinformed, because those "scrappy startups" he touts GM as just crushing are actually the reason GM is still competing. Maybe it's not well known but everything from Electric car technology to self driving car technology inside GM are often being developed by multiple scrappy startups that are getting funding from GM. The author might as well have made a full disclosure statement of "GM paid me to write an amazing review of its new car as well as to bash Tesla, so I figured I'd do it all in one piece."
