That figure of a $132K loss per EV must involve some creative accounting, no company would ever bring a vehicle to market that cost more than double to make than what they could sell it for. Its also an example that if a totally ridiculous "fact" is requoted often enough by people who don't think about it then it becomes accepted by the general population.
Its a bit like when some researcher quoted a totally stupid amount of water to produce one kilogram of beef, now everyone with a bit to grind with the beef industry quotes it without having the faintest idea of its origin or its truth.
