Rumor on the street is Tesla will have the Berlin factory up this year. And another rumor is that UK factory might happen as well. This would make it cheaper.

You are joking right? MS had a decent in windows mobile 6. The problem was that they did not control their manufacturers like HTC who did not put in proper gpu drivers cause they didn’t want to pay $7 for the licensing. They also used 3 year old processors on new phones. This made their WM6 phones run slow like crap.

VW software engineers are having problems, their boss told them to put in an emissions defeat device, but they are having problems figuring out where the tail pipe emissions control system is on the ID.3. That has caused major delays.

First of all, Tesla software is broken down into 2. Well 3 if you count autopilot/fsd. The computer that runs the car, and the computer that runs the infotainment system. While they do the ship and patch model for the infotainment, they are pretty conservative with the actual cars system.

“The Model 3 itself had an 11% market share in Norway, with 15,683 vehicles sold. This is over 50% more than the second-place VW Golf.” for 2019.

The EV sector is doing better than the ICE sector, and Tesla has changed prices all the time both up and down once or twice a year.

Sure, if you want to know how it feels like to put yourself in a blender.

I will remind you GM told us their whole fleet is gonna be EVs this decade. So if they think its gonna take decades for consumer adoption, do they plan to go into hibernation?

You are aware that statistically, only around 5% of class 7 and 8 trucks drive over 500 miles right? Aka, the Tesla Semi fits just fine for the majority of the market and that low cost per mile is pretty darn attractive.

Because of the pandemic? Plus the issues with the Model Y aren’t as bad as the Model 3. We know this based on production numbers of the Model Y being far higher than Model 3 when it came out.

It technically should be very easy to take down the flags, the US constitution says:

He micromanages issues and development, not every day operations.

He isn’t there to micromanage everything and fix every little thing, that isn’t the point. The point is to pinpoint bottlenecks and skip red tape and the game of telephone.

That was the plan, until a pandemic shut the factory down at the crucial point.

Considering Musk is part of the design process and knows about building the cars himself, obviously 2.

You are confusing FSD with autopilot. Autopilot is what you must have your hands on at all time. It clearly tells you this(both when you order and when you use the feature). And if you take your hands off the wheel it will nag you.

Nikola seems to be prime to be the next Faraday Future.

Except Tesla actually had a product before going public. Nikola does not. They have introduced new product after new product every year and none of them have ever been actually sold. At this point their main product is headlines.

And that is precisely what is happening. I mean does no one realize Nikola doesn’t even have a product? They have like what, powerpoint presentations? And like 5 products already they promised over the last 5 years and none of them were ever made.

The thing about that is, burning money early on in your life as a business is actually standard business practice. To be honest, 99% of successful new businesses follow that formula since humans started to run their own businesses.
