So the lowest selling brand of the three sold more than twice as many cars in its worst month in the 1st 1/4 of 2013 than Tesla did in all 3 combined. I don't know about the rest of you, but I wouldn't really call that Tesla 'beating' those other companies.

I don't get how it's misleading, they are clearly saying that its outselling models not the whole brand.

I contrast, I wonder how many cars where the big 3 Germans selling the first years they started to make cars from 1 single plant.
