I think part of the problem is people thinking it needs to be perfect. That it needs to never make a mistake. That’s ridiculous. It literally drives like people now, mistakes and all. The end goal simply only needs to be: better than people in general by ‘fill in a number’.Always like the Cat's take.
Sometimes I wonder if it is just me (FSD since 2019). I cannot think of any other product, this advanced, this potentially life changing, this valuable, COMPLETELY PUBLIC no less, and yet as far as I can tell undervalued.
Its like having an iphone a year or so before they widely release it. Or something, I am not even sure that is a good example.
If you look, not at what FSD requires to be made perfect, but where it is at now, it is astonishing.
I am sorry, I should know by now, but I don't.Bummer that Martin is leaving. I liked his contributions on X
soon to be former head of investor relations ..I am sorry, I should know by now, but I don't.
Who is Martin V? and what is the impact to Tesla on his departure?
NOTE: Over the last many pages, I've seen zero posts from folks I ignore, FYI. THAT is a data point!
I’m in the camp that weighs, measures, and then thinks Eeyore when it’s negative, chuckles and moves on. Much less stressful.OT: This forum needs a self healing algo, besides the mods, to get rid of disease which often has names sounding like pron stars.
The disease has been killing this incredibly valuable forum lately.
We've lost too many great and valuable posters over the years to let the disease continue. 3/4 of last day's post were just response to nonsense disease posts. Absurd.
A great night to be a TSLA shareholder. It's been a long time since an earnings call went this well imo.Outlook | Product:
"We have updated our future vehicle line-up to accelerate the launch of new models ahead of our previously communicated start of production in the second half of 2025.
"These new vehicles, including more affordable models, will utilize aspects of the next generation platform as well as aspects of our current platforms, and will be able to be produced on the same manufacturing lines as our current vehicle line-up.
"This update may result in achieving less cost reduction than previously expected but enables us to prudently grow our vehicle volumes in a more capex efficient manner during uncertain times.
"This would help us fully utilize our current expected maximum capacity of close to three million vehicles, enabling more than 50% growth over 2023 production before investing in new manufacturing lines.
"Our purpose-built robotaxi product will continue to pursue a revolutionary “unboxed” manufacturing strategy."
So there you have it in a nutshell folks: Model 2 is not canceled, in fact it's going to be a shortened Model Y variant, and it sounds like there will be more than one variant. Finally, robotaxi will come after these new variants; growth has been reprioritized.
Brilliant!
It is nice that Jim Scuitto has had a Tesla in the background all afternoon... maybe a sign?

My only small worry is that these new lower-cost models might have the same exterior appearance as Model 3 and Y. Otherwise how will they build them on the same assembly line? Problem would be that they Osborne the existing lineup. I hope my fears are unfounded.

They all absolutely osbourne each other. How can we tell? Because Tesla outsold like all of BMW's entire line up of 10+ models combined with just 2 car models.This concern always confuses me.
BMWs 2 series didn't osborne its 3 series, nor the 3 the 5 series.... The corolla doesn't osborne the camry... Heck the Avalon doesn't osborn the ES.
People LIKE having cars in slightly different size and price classes- the fact they look similar to each other otherwise doesn't seem to prevent both from finding customers.
I am sorry, I should know by now, but I don't.

"Cybertruck Dynamic Systems, Inc." Later renamed to...Jim is currently a national security correspondent for CNN, and he's a former government officer. It's almost certain now that the US DOD is exploring the possibility of using FSD for autonomous logistics vehicles, especially fuel and ammo trucks in war zones. "Tesla Government Systems": I like the sound of that. First product? Why, autonomous Cybertruck, of course!

I do not think this means model 2 is dead. In fact, the opposite. Model 2 (or whatever you want to call it) will be manufactured in a more compromised way than originally planned but it will be available sooner.
