Remiss not to mention Li Auto here, same class of 2015 as OpenAI. $17B in revenues last year as an 8 year old company, up more than 160% from the year prior. Compare that to a $2B optimistic estimate for OpenAI’s revenues last year. The fastest growing hardware startup perhaps ever.

As a PHEV/EV startup, do not even compare it to Rivian by top or bottom lone growth. As a Chinese startup it is a kick up the backside for the US to build more consumer hardware companies and do it faster.
