SNOWBULL PERSPECTIVE

It is valuable to consider and compare alternate views of the future

Here are some perspectives from Snowbull Capital on their view of the "EV market" which includes BEVs, ICE PHEVs, ride-hailing

1. Global Passenger EV Sales

- 40 million units for 2031
Our own view starts with an expected 25 million units from Tesla in 2031

- 20% Global Market Share would give the BEV industry 125 million units

- if Snowbull is right about lower industry volume then Tesla's Market Share would be 63%

A simple consequence of Slow Competitors
2. Global Passenger EV Sales by Region

- these numbers imply a significant shrinkage of the global and regional automobile industry
This chart provides a useful reference point for regional sales historically

And we expect the overall volume of demand to grow by over 2.3x between 2017 and 2040

- but there will be big differences in that growth by region

Snowbull's numbers do not reach past levels
3. Tesla Global Passenger EV Market Share

- Snowbull's market definition is said to include BEVs, ICE PHEVs, ride-hailing

- in which case it overstates the 2018, 2019, 2020 numbers
Our Global Market Share tracking is for pure BEVs only
4. Tesla Sales By Model

- there appears to be an assumption here that Tesla will cease developing any new products

- which appears to be a little inconsistent for a company that has clearly said it intends to deliver 20 million units in 2030
5. Tesla Sales By Region

- the peak numbers seem low for the three main regions just based on currently planned production locations

- the cause of the projected volume declines during the 2030s is unknown
6. Tesla Passenger EV Sales by Region

- the total number in 2031 is about 6.9 million vehicles

- Tesla has clearly stated its intention to deliver 20 million vehicles, or nearly 3x more

The reason for the difference from management guidance is unclear
Delivery of only ~600 million BEVs by 2040 in line with Snowbull's forecasts would substantially delay the conversion of the Global Vehicle Fleet from ICEVs to BEVs compared to the ~2,200 million BEVs shown here

- and significantly delay the improvement of global CO2 emissions

GLOBAL VEHICLE SALES 2020 - PRELIMINARY

We do not yet have a final total for Global Vehicle Sales in 2020, but preliminary indictions are that 77.1 million vehicles were sold of which 2.1 million or 2.7% were pure BEVs

The number of ICE vehicles sold is estimated at 75 million Image
This means that ICE sales came in -34 million units below trend line growth of Natural Demand, twice as deep as the -17 million units contraction seen in 2019 Image
This also means that ICE sales are now -20.9 million vehicles or -21.8% down from their 2017 peak

- they are also -13.1 million vehicles down from the 2019 level

- and they are -5.0 million units below our own original view of 80 million ICEVs for 2020 Image

General Motors Co said on Monday that due to the global semiconductor chip shortage the U.S. automaker is building certain 2021 light-duty full-size pickup trucks without a fuel management module, hurting those vehicles’ fuel economy performance
reuters.com/article/us-gm-…
The lack of the active fuel management/dynamic fuel management module means affected models equipped with 5.3-liter EcoTec3 V8 engine with both six-speed and eight-speed automatic transmission will have lower fuel economy by one mile per gallon, spokeswoman Michelle Malcho said
Malcho emphasized all trucks are still being built, something GM has repeatedly stressed it would try to protect as pickups are among GM’s most profitable models. She declined to say the volume of vehicles affected
