much like computers, cars and other tech, do you jump in "now" or "wait" - and later usually has lower prices (in pure tech) AND better performance. (cars seemingly go up 2% a year - but with the chip shortage, design changes, etc. all bets are off).Same, although, I dont want to order a Y now and in Q1 have them popping out with structural battery packs and 4680s. With Tesla, that could happen or that could happen *maybe* in 2023.
Do I spend $1k on a notebook computer today, get the same one new next year for $800, or spend $950 in a year for a better computer than I could get today.
BTW, I fully predict when the 4680s are out in earnest, they'll go to the Cybertruck, Roadster, MAYBE future Plaid + (back from the dead) and of course the Semi. Though I'm not sure if Tesla said they'll produce the other models only with their own 4680 cells, or only with 4680 cells.
