Yes and yes.Are there workarounds to Taxes/Tarriffs by doing final vehicle assembly in country/region of delivery (e.g. China) ?
Does Tesla get any tax break in EU due to final assembly being in Tillsburg?
Yes and yes.
Due to importing parts at their value + tariff, and then selling assembled cars at MSRP.
So with some planning, some tents could be sprung up in China and S/X assembled there and bring down cost to better compete in local market?

Well, @bro1999 has been eager to report on all such articles about the Bolt, so given his investment in uncovering the facts, perhaps we can nominate him for this duty?"But with the Bolt a sudden success, a Tesla Model 3 killer, at least, is what GM has on its hands."
I wish Tesla would produce a blog where they call out publications such as Business Insider and remind them of some of the stupid articles they've published - and most importantly, hound them until they admit they were wrong. The quote above is from an article BI did in January claiming the Bolt was better than the M3.
I'd love to ask the writer - "so who's killing who b###h?"

When GM and Chrysler went to Washington DC to beg for a bailout Ford CEO went along for the ride.
Ford CEO Alan Mulally said if GM and Chrysler ceased as a functioning business it would take dozens of Tier 1 suppliers and hundreds of Tier 2/3 suppliers leaving Ford unable to make cars and drag it toward bankruptcy.
Although Ford did not need or request direct assistance for bailout for itself it lobbied for GM and Chrysler to get a bailout.
In the auto biz your most direct competitors are your frenemies.
Guys, what about Gene Munster for Chairman? Here's the logic: He understands the company and wants it to succeed long-term, but he has also been thoughtful and critical in ways that you would want a person in that position to be. He's also followed Apple from the days when it was virtually a mid cap company to a mega cap now -- the trajectory Tesla would like to follow. Overall, he would be a steward for the shareholders, which is what you want a Chairman to be.
Simply incorrect. Investment alone does not affect independence.Gene Munster wouldn't be independent because his fund is invested in TSLA.

Can you give an official definition of "independent director?"
LMGTFYWhat is the definition of Independent? independent of Elon or TSLA? If she/he has no interests in TSLA, how do shareholders trust him with their best interests?
