You prob won’t find a 2018+ model x with 7 seats for under $100k. Especially now that in 2021 there will be zero model x shipped to Australia, second hand market will be even more in demand. ...

Would it make sense for Australia to subsidise the creation of domestic battery cell production? Say for example we license Tesla's 4680 cell line and then we start building high nickel cells. Nickel is $15,000 per tonne if we export it ...

somebody needs to pay for the damage done by pollution. Why shouldn’t it be at least a contribution by the person who buys the vehicle that pollutes? Woah talk about triggered... I’m sorry if this fact offends you but diesel emissions are ...

I'm also 100% in favour of this. However wouldn't this just be twisted into a "tax for the poor" as its generally the older/cheaper cars that are more polluting? It would probably need to be offset with a cash for clunkers type program to ...

FSD is a collection of convenience features above standard AutoPilot. That is, AutoSteer Lane Changes, Navigate on Autopilot, Smart Summon, Automatic Parking, Stop Sign and Traffic Light Detection. Plus the yet to be delivered "City ...

Agreed. However you are writing off FSD entirely based on some superficial bugs ...

Yes because a bug in a bluetooth library that Tesla didn't even develop is a reflection of the entire AutoPilot team and their ability to make a fully autonomous robo taxi. Robotaxi in Australia is many, many years away because of the ...

100% yes. I don't actually expect it to be in Australia in the next 5 years but in theory I would. If the car can generate $0.50 per KM in revenue, you would be looking at $20k in yearly revenue. That's still 1/4 the cost of Uber for the ...

Latest rumour out of China is 580k run-rate for Model Y out of China by Q4 this year. This is an absolutely massive number. I really expect that they will open AU orders this year if they expect to be increasing output by 5x of Model Y in ...
