Would it make sense to "highlight" selling more MS60 in order to do more vehicles without eating through the battery constraint? Maybe have gallery employees talk customers into considering those models over the 85? Also, how many batteries are going to SolarCity - or will those be Samsung or other vendors'? With SCTY CEO saying they want to try to install "all future" systems with battery standby, that is a lot of batteries going over to SCTY.
I think Tesla would rather have the higher margin higher end models and ship at a slower rampup than lower margin 60kWh models. About the SCTY battery supply Elon's stated on Twitter that the battery tech there is slightly different and no foreseeable constraint there (also shouldn't impact MS sales).
