For starters they can sell EVs at a profit, a feat which I believe only Tesla has managed among the US manufacturers.

Sure, but that's mostly an R&D vs time thing. All manufacturers go through a period of time where they are losing huge money as they build out the production capacity and develop their tech. Tesla went years without making money, as did BYD. The incumbents will get there eventually.
