GM GROSS MARGIN
GM’s Automotive Gross Margin is only 9.8% of Automotive Revenues
- compare with
Tesla’s more robust Automotive Gross Margin of 21.2% for 2019
NOTE
1. GM captures less than half of the Revenues from Retail Sales of its vehicles - Tesla captures 100% of the Revenues
2. GM only earns 10% Gross Margin on the half of Automotive Revenue that it captures - Tesla currently captures 21.2% and we can expect 25% in the future
—> Tesla has a 4-5x better business model and business structure than GM, even before considering any product advantages or technology advantages
- $1,000,000 of retail sales is worth $210,000~250,000 to Tesla
- $1,000,000 of retail sales is worth only $50,000 to GM
