And what matters is if potential customers know the brand . Tesla doesnt need to be known to the general populace, thats not its target market . Tesla is not VW that sells 20k cars its pointless for them to be known to that market.
perhaps take a class on marketing/sales?
LOL, perhaps you should take that class yourself. Tesla appears to be losing money hand over fist at the moment. They are not going to be able to do this forever. It's very likely that their strategy is to move out of the rarified niche they are in currently, into the broad luxury car market, or even into mass markets. The alternative is to stick to their niche and reduce costs to achieve profitability; it seems unlikely that's what Musk has in mind. Therefore, everything you say about their "target market" is wrong, and reflects a basic lack of knowledge about marketing, product, and corporate strategy. So, please do take that class!
