My guess is that they will implement the new the new technology in new factories first than gradually transition the first production lines to the new technology and gradually reduce cost of all the vehicles and maintain acceptable margins.Nobody has said that the $25k car would be produced in Germany/China and shipped to the US. It will be designed in Germany/China but manufactured where there is market for it.
She couldn’t be more right.Her absolute best comment: "You can't really compare Elon to Jeff Bezos, who just sells toilet paper online"
LMAO!

A normal company would license needed technology to Deere and Caterpillar. It will be interesting to see if Tesla does get into these segments, who Elon's first principles would reinvent the industry. I'd expect something like Boring company to speed up construction and clean up agriculture production. Reinventing food production for space travel should have significant impact on earth based production.BTW, if you look at that flow chart I posted, the share of petroleum usage by agricultural, construction, and industrial equipment is larger than what air travel consumes.
Tesla tractors/excavators/bulldozers?

Ah, I was thinking Roadster release yr (and got that off by a year as well).
Just like our southern border there are ways around the wall.Paywalled
I am expecting successive -$3,000 and -$4,000 cost reduction on all the models as far as the new technology is implemented instead of just popping out a new Giga Berlin made Model Y with the new technology that is 50% the price of the ones made in California.
With the high number of atrocious drivers in Southern California, FSD will be a saver of lives. That is the message that should come out of Tesla.Since we have so many investors here, many of whom are frighteningly undiversified outside of Tesla.... How do you move past the inevitably that during the pursuit of FSD, Tesla will have crashes and deaths. This will be true during beta, while the driver is still technically responsible and afterwards when the vehicle is responsible. Mathematically speaking, there will be crashes and deaths no matter how good FSD is because no matter how many "nines" they get, crashes and deaths will always be > zero. The media will unfortunately eat these stories up. Just wondering what this inevitably does to our portfolios?
You seem to have trouble distinguishing between competent and mind-blowing. This is fairly common amongst the technologically ignorant. Oh, look, a technology improvement. One is just like another.Tesla was obviously going to announce the next order of magnitude scale of battery manufacturing. It's been clear for a couple of years that they would need to take on themselves implementing the scale needed. They presented the apparently competent plan that was expected. The upside had already been traded.
And no, none of this will "have been traded" until it is actually deployed. Wall St. doesn't believe anything that isn't actually being delivered. Being steeped in a tradition and actuality of fraudulence, they think that everyone is Trevon Milton. Given that they don't personally have any clue about the technology, they won't believe it until it's in customers' hands. So, only a small percentage of the promise of the new technology has already been traded.
