Falling battery costs were discussed on the earnings call and insofar as I can determine that information was completely ignored by UBS. Setting everything else aside, when I factor the earnings call information on battery costs into the UBS analysis, the $35,000 model is close to break even. I could be wrong but…

Knowing the profitability of a car that isnt out yet sure is interesting.
People have doubted Tesla every step of the way.
Hansen said that he told Tesla on June 12 that he had “corroborated connections between certain Tesla employees at the time and various alleged members of the Mexican drug cartel identified in the DEA report as located in Mexico, that he urged Tesla to disclose his findings to law enforcement and to the DEA task…
The guy that posted the picture of the blue one originally posted that picture with the caption that it came off after driving through 12-15 inches of standing water. The guy with the red car says he ran in to heavy rain in the streets (a.k.a. standing water). Doesn’t really sound like as much of a Tesla issue as an…
When I heard about this early, it sounded like all these people drove through standing water. I’m not entirely ready to blame Tesla for this until we find out how much water and how fast.
If you’ve never driven, or watched people drive, in flash floods in North Jersey, you really won’t understand the situation.
Really? I’m starting to see them in the wild, and I think it actually looks better in person. Which is only “Absolutely Fine”, and nowhere near the presence of a Model S or the razzle-dazzle of an X or Fisker.
People have spent the greater parts of human history taking shit that isn’t theirs. Sometimes because they need it to get by. Sometimes just to sow discord, but mostly because they want it. Attributing the thefts to a class inequality just excuses one basic, human failing with another.
Individual pirates in Somalia…
What’s the point of this exercise? Munoz never claimed he loves to fly coach. Are CEOs required to love consuming the cheapest product their company sells?
There is literally no way to get to the interior seats without crawling over someone. Who ever came up with this is failing.
Know what else should not exist? Left wing people who judge a book by its cover. Try watching it to find out if it actually IS offensive. You and your ilk are like left wing versions of foxtards who refuse to watch sasha Baron cohen, even though SBC sets up democrats the same he does republicans. Get into the habit of…
Former reporter and editor at the NYDN here. I’ve never worked in a worse place in my life and I used to work in advertising. It was such a toxic, xenophobic and generally abusive place that I quit without having a fallback.
Oh man, it’s special BECAUSE it’s the first. And we get it, the model 3 designer also designed Mazdas
Tesla Short position holders (including, one assumes, Ryan Felton, since he hasn’t bothered to deny it when asked) are seriously grasping at straws now. The “ZOMG look at all the Model 3's in a parking lot!” when GM, Ford, and every other automaker does the same thing. Transportation is almost always a bottleneck…
The Model 3 Performance comes up a brake upgrade and the cornering performance was targeted toward the M3 (unfortunately no instrumented testing yet). Curb weight is 4100 lbs. Even the standard car was developed against the BMW 3 series and Alfa Giulia (spy shots caught the Model 3 testing against these cars).
Considering TSLA is the most shorted stock on wall street and considering the recent coordinated hits on Musk/Tesla. I can see this making the shorts panic, even more so since WSJ has historically been negative on Tesla.
Massive oversimplification. If Mazda 6 had 0-60 in 3.5 seconds and was AWD perhaps. The Model 3 Performance is more of an M3 competitor.
you can’t express an opinion about a car or a movie or a TV show anything without people making negative character assessments and wishing you were murdered.
Top Gear, not the show but the website. Seriously good journalism (not blogging). No BS tabloid stuff like you see here. Just really good photography, cars, stories, and reviews. And I know you’re kinda joking about another website but I couldn’t help but plug it.
