I think you are forgetting Tesla here, which sold quite a few Roadsters.
Talk about nitpicking, I had mentioned the big three in the previous sentence, after all. But I have edited to:
It's disingenuous of you to imply, that BEV sales by the big three American vehicle manufacturers could be constrained by lack of demand, since, AFAIK, unless Ford has one or more Focus EVs on a sales lot somewhere, none of the big three, have ever built a BEV, and offered it for sale to an American private party buyer.
Now, as to Tesla, you are partially correct, but I could nitpick also, and say, that the Tesla Roadster is a British manufactured ICEV design, converted from a glider to BEV, in America.
