Careful bull
Obviously not.
I guess you don't understand.
I think if you read the transcripts it'll be clear to you.
I understand Elon, but not your confidence in conclusion you made.
You've taken 27s and 10x that, split the diff into 6 steps (same size - linear steps) to get to 23.5s; then you rounded this to 25s.
But starting point is 100s, and not 27s.
And most any model of improvement (hockey stick, S curve, percentage increase) has characteristics that they start rather slow, and bigger numerical gains are down the line.
I am not saying that you're wrong, but that you're trying to calculate something that we don't even have a semblance of enough information.
I don't have a whole lot of interest in this type of prediction, but now that I engaged, here is my thought process, and my guess.
One year from the moment first Model 3 rolls down the line, Tesla will be making 4-10K Model 3 per week (200-500K a year). This is not based on any math, but psychology, persistence of human spirit and Elon's determination. I don't know how they're going to get there, but I believe they'll get there. There are lots of people in Tesla determined to see this happen, and be part of this historic journey.
And they'll just dismantle any obstacle they encounter along the way.
10 years from now, there will be books about this...
