so one of the things that has been bugging me since the 4Q 2016 earnings call was elon's comments about the model 3 when pressed about a final reveal -- here is the exchange with the analysts:
"It's going to be pretty close to what I showed at the Model 3 unveiling, but with more polish and...
(I meant heavily influenced, not really "used") The Anders is a little pointer but close. I think it's so cool that Musk may have taken TMC/others photoshopped reworks and could've taken it to his designers and said 'Change it'. How many CEO's would've done this for their flagship model!
Anders...
"An influential group of investors is pressing Tesla Inc. to add two board directors who don’t have ties to Elon Musk, a sign that concerns over the electric-car maker’s corporate governance remain as its shares soar."

Obviously, Elon's on a tear trying to convince everyone to go buy a Model S, rather than wait for the Model 3. One minor unintended consequence is that he may be convincing those of us that have a lower spec Model S that were planning to "upgrade" to a performance version of the Model 3, that...
Over a year ago, Elon tweeted this:
"Elon Musk ✔ @elonmusk
@HBL_Cosmin Wait until you see the real steering controls and system for the 3. It feels like a spaceship.
4:49 PM - 3 Apr 2016"
For the last year, I, and probably everyone else here have been patiently, or not, waiting to see the...
Elon Musk’s vision for high-speed travel via Hyperloop is beginning to show some momentum. Hyperloop One, a company developing the technology, has unveiled 11 independent proposals to build Hyperloop routes throughout the U.S.
The routes were designed by teams competing in the Hyperloop One...
To the question "Any chance that someone who camped out overnight to reserve Model 3 will get an AWD Model 3 by Dec 31st this year?"
Elon replied "Pretty Good".
For those who are interested, it looks like Elon is now forecasting the release of the kernel update approximately six weeks from today (March 31, 2017).
He states: "Browser is already a little better. Kernel and browser update in prob 6 weeks or so (lots of underlying changes) with a few...
I think that currently, one of the fastest ways to spread the idea and demand for clean energy is to offer clean temporary welding power, clean temporary construction site power, and later (because they take longer to develop & set up manufacturing) clean tractors and trucks (the latter two...
Bummer. I hoped that with the central screen in the Model 3 that it would be easier to make right hand drive versions but unfortunately Elon tweeted that UK right hand drive models won't be made until Their Summer which makes it Winter down here in Oz. So June 2018. Bummer.
Tesla’s solar roof tiles will be available for order in April, according to a tweet from CEO Elon Musk.
Tesla unveiled its solar roof product last year following the acquisition of SolarCity in a deal worth $2.1 billion. The vision for the combined companies is to leverage solar energy...
My reading of his tweets today is that there is no HUD planned, and that the center display is all we get. Thoughts? He clearly says their is no new technology that is not in an S or X and/or that a consumer would notice (as opposed to production line improvements).
Just a little teaser pic of something new.
That's all I'm asking for.
Just a tiny peak of a bit of the interior, or a blurred reflection of a speedo somewhere in front of the driver, hey even a peak at the new nose job or the rear-end surgery.
Just something...
Go on, you know you want to...
Hi everyone, I'm a newbie here so sorry up front if I'm posting this in the wrong channel.
I'm a Model S P85D owner and decided to write a chatbot to control the car using the Telsa API (struggled for a bit as I didnt realise this forum exists and has lots of people with knowledge on the...
In today's investor's call following yesterday's cap raise:
"q on model 3 beta prototype - essentially eliminating beta because of advanced analytical techniques and going straight to release candidate
show car -> alpha -> early release candidate
"we will be driving it in a week or 2"
entire...
As we AP2 owners are aware, AP2 is in beta and hasn't even achieved parity with AP1's features, much less parity in performance. Local autosteer will cross double yellow lines on turns and upon activation it will "hunt" for the center of the lane in a manner reminiscent of a drunk driver...
Tesla has never lived up to deadlines, but says it will change with Model 3. And it looks like Tesla is set to live up to its promise. What's your say?
In the Q1 2017 earnings call, currently going on, Elon stated that the final Model 3 reveal that will show the production version of the car may not happen before production begins in July 2017. He didn't state that with a lot of certainty, there was some hedging, but it sounded to me like the...
〝Our company will launch a vehicle with 620 miles (998 km)range by 2017."Tesla CEO Elon Musk said in an interview on September 29, 2015.He had not stated a position on whether the new model will upgrade on the basis of existing models or as a brand new car...
I am not starting this thread as a political thread. Everyone has a right to their opinion. Mine just happens to be a very strongly held conviction when it comes to Trump. Clearly I'm not a supporter. I realize Elon is a business man first and foremost but he has somewhat cozied up to Trump...
Elon Musk confirmed on Twitter that Tesla will repair a car sacrificed by its owner to bring a car with an unconscious driver safely to a stop.
German newspaper Muenchner Merkur reported that 41-year-old Manfred Kick noticed a Volkswagen driving erratically on the Autobahn near Munich. When...

Finally, a sensible regulatory regime for environmental correction proposed that I can trust, support, and believe in. It proposes a legal structure for improving the environment that I find acceptable and good for us and our country. Please promote and let's do it!
Elon Musk is promoting this...
He didn't specifically use the terminology "parity" but I believe all these features is what AP1 has today, right?
"...by next month" would literally mean this month, as in February, right? Thought of course this is Elon time but finger crossed.

Tesla may launch in India as soon as the coming summer, according to a tweet from CEO Elon Musk.
Musk replied to an inquiry on plans for India and replied that the company is “hoping” to have a presence in the country this year.
India is the latest to join the list of countries...
I just got notified about winning the PW2 in the last referral program.
I can't use the Powerwall, so might as well sell it.
A regular Powerwall retails for $5500.
But this is an exclusive red Founders Series Powerwall 2.0, hand signed by Elon Musk, JB Straubel, and Franz von Holzhausen...

I just got the email last night from Tesla.

Am I the only one here who's uncomfortable with Elon's seemingly budding bromance with Cheeto Jesus (aka President of the United States whom I'll never call by name)? The cozier it gets, the more concerned I become... What exactly is Elon's motive here? Anyone have any thoughts on the matter...
Elon sent a tweet:
"@TheEconomist This may sound surprising coming from me, but I agree with The Economist. Rex Tillerson has the potential to be an excellent Sec of State."
with the rationale that Rex Tillerson shares a common belief in climate change and carbon tax.
I myself think that is...
Tesla CEO Elon Musk is dating Johnny Depp's ex - The Economic Times
No idea if this is true but if it is, I don't like it.
Elon, stay focused on Tesla and SpaceX. There are a lot at stake. This is not the time personal relationships etc. Just stay focused.
Should be able to win one of these from the referral program it looks like! If up for sale would anyone be interested? Living in an apartment here...much as I like there's gonna be little use of it over here...
Elon Musk Has Delivery Issues
This New Yorker article by Jeffrey Rothfeder seems unfairly critical of Tesla, especially when you consider that--at least until the Bolt becomes more widely available--it is actually the only car company delivering on the promise of long-range all-electric...
this from Elons twitter:
Elon Musk @elonmusk 7h7 hours ago
New rev for Autopilot HW2 rolling out Mon to first 1000 & to rest of fleet in shadow mode. Also improves HW1 and enables Ludicrous+.
Good stuff, and good to see HW1 continuing to benefit from improvements.
... although some 90KWH...
I see that the latest tweet claims additional improvements are coming to AP1...anyone care to guess the 'improvements'? Or guess more functionality that will be removed to further gimp the system so it's less embarrassing to the current capability of AP2?
Let me know some other ideas, and I'll...
So just some blue sky thinking...
There's been a lot of chatter about truly high-power charging recently, with both the Chademo and CCS groups coming close to finalizing 350kW charging, Chargepoint and EVgo starting to deploy hardware, etc.
And then Elon tweets:
