Jim Cramer Shares Why Tesla (TSLA) Is Better Than Ford

Jim Cramer touted Tesla’s (TSLA) battery expertise versus Ford, reinforcing a bullish narrative around the EV maker. Analysts’ takes cited in the piece were mixed-but-supportive: Roth Capital in late April kept a $505 price target and a Buy rating after Tesla’s Q1 results, while RBC trimmed its target to $475 from $480 but maintained an Outperform view, citing healthy gross margins and expected FSD subscription growth. The article notes Tesla is up 20.7% over the past year but down 3.6% year-to-date, highlighting continued investor focus on margins, capex for growth initiatives and software monetization as near-term market drivers.
