Not even close to correct, Subaru first car 1954, Honda founded 1948, Nissan founded 1932, ...

They were merely recent importers to the States.

Tesla is absurd, it is either too large a problem, or too small.

The huge actual problem:
Batteries are not quite up to the task of moving vehicles around, gasoline so exceeds the energy density that the EVs can't compete unless the problem is constrained. So the large problem is to innovate batteries, Tesla has nowhere near the resources to solve this, leave it to the camera, cell phone, and power tool makers. Li-ion cells have 1/10 the energy density of the gasoline and that is difficult to overcome.

The small possible approach:
Or just leave the beautiful Lotus alone and toss an electric motor in and let the chips fall. Driving issues? Drivers learned not to lift while driving the 911 hard. It is not like the Tesla could ever be taken on the track, full throttle operation allegedly caused over heating problems.
