Ehh, we already know the luxury buyers are more likely to go EV than non-Lux buyers, so this kind of makes sense. I assume Toyota will be doing something similar with the Lexus brand. Lexus will get more EV’s more quickly and Toyota will do HEV/PHEV and a couple EV’s until the market dictates it is time to swap. I…

Technically, Honda’s two-mode hybrid system doesn’t have a traditional transmission, not in the way of stepped ratios, CVT, or even eCVT.

Exactly. The only reason for wanting video games in the car is if they can be played by the annoying back seat passengers. Since tablet computers can fill that role, children can already play their video games in the car...

If you can’t even play Mario Kart, 4-player split screen on it, what’s even the point?

The torque figure on hybrids are irrelevant. You never feel the torque. All you get is this constant linear acceleration.

Now, the Tesla boss has been forced to admit defeat once again as no new Tesla’s will ship with support for Steam games on their infotainment systems.

He’s a bit late to the AI hype train. Its already starting to show signs of collapse.

The problem is that there are way too many true believers among the retail investors and probably among early investors as well. It seems like in literally any other situation there would be institutional investors that would have pushed the board in a direction that would tend to reign in an executive like Musk...

True, about Kid Rock, he began as a rapper, then moved to rock, and finally “Country”

“assuming the brand is not deemed irreversibly tarnished.”

All they had to do was ignore the toddler in charge and focus on updating their core product lineup. The CyberTruck was a total brain and money suck for a product without much use aside as a vanity project for Elmo.

Yeah but you actually work and do stuff that benefits other people. You provide actual value.

I’ll be sure and buy a car from this company.

Yes, absolutely it is Musk’s own doing. It would be awesome if he’s ousted and Tesla manages to become a stable company without him. I guess the most likely outcome is that it would be bought by someone else, assuming the brand is not deemed irreversibly tarnished.

Well, I’m going to tell my clients I’m not going to work anymore until I get a significant raise and see how that goes. *fingers crossed*

“He knows it’s inevitable”

Wait, so if Tesla doesn’t give Elon a huge pile of money they ALSO don’t have to waste their time and resources on a robotics program that won’t benefit their primary line of business?

If Tesla implodes, it will only because he made it happen. Without him, it’s still quite profitable with low debt levels (albeit no longer growing like it was prior to the last year). But he’s doing his best to drive it into the ground.

How can a company senior officer make open threats against the company and still hold their job??

I really do not begin to understand why anyone cares about this. Chances are, nobody here is going to buy one anytime soon anyway.
