Tesla will partner with a number of significant Chinese companies, and will have the support of the Chinese government. This will allow Tesla to significantly ramp up production, without needing to worry about any capital constraints, since much of the capital and machinery required will either be given to Tesla for free, or close to free. I suspect we will learn more about these arrangements before the end of November. I'm still amazed that analysts have decided to discounted the significance of Tesla Motor's partnerships in China. Anyone who thinks the Chinese government only supports Chinese companies doesn't understand China.How else is Tesla going to ramp up production from 60,000 vehicles annually, to 500,000 vehicles annually in 5 years? Tesla is following every page of Apple's playbook.</blockquote>
