Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

Looking for comments in the call about performance/efficiency technology improvements from Models 3 & Y being brought into the new S & X - heat pump, etc.b

 

[Baumisch]

I just can’t wrap my head around the 2012 back of the S. Still the same old rearlights and still same body lines. I hope for plaid+ it gets a bit more edge on the outside as well.

Heat pump in S/X is already confirmed in the slide deck.

I like it. It's futuristic and edgy, I think it'll click with lots of buyers

Top part of steering wheels are always in the way of the dials / screen in front. This seems the obvious solution - I guess takes getting used to. ("Best part is no part" or at least half a part!)

I have a serious problem with Tesla. I want to own one of each of their cars but only have garage space for 3. What the hell should I do???

I thought that was only a problem for me. That's part of the reason I like the model 3 screen.

Ordered!

Me too! Gotta have that steering wheel! OK, this is my last car ... until the Roadster.

Um, I gotta say though that the price of the Model X has jumped since I bought my last one 2 years ago...

Macros have been going down after market close. Dragging TSLA down among others.

Nasdaq -3.15, S&P500 -2.83

Edit: So right now TSLA is down -2.68 Nasdaq or in line with S&P.

Take a small loan out on some of your shares and buy a bigger mansion.

Double your child support without your ex having to ask?

I already more than pay more than the mortgage and car payment equivalent for someone who makes about what I do. She is not hurting believe me. And it's split custody.

Biden just announced he will replace all federal vehicles with zero emission union built electric vehicles made in America. (Paraphrased). So much for Tesla.

ABC - 2 hours ago: Fiat Chrysler agrees to plead guilty, pay $30M in UAW probe

Excerpt:

Company representatives gave more than $3.5 million in cash and other things of value to senior officials at the United Auto Workers, federal prosecutors in Detroit said as they charged FCA with conspiracy from 2009 to 2016.

Finally my Plaid MX order went through!

I'm there with you brother. "Honey, we need to build a larger garage.". That conversation's gone nowhere for two years so far.

 

[StarFoxisDown!]

Report says pack and modules have been fully redesigned.

Would they redesign battery pack and just stick with 16850? Or go to 2170?

Would they redesign pack now and then have a different architecture for Plaid+ only? That seems, not efficient...

I know....I don't get the wording either. Seems very inefficient to update the production lines now with a half measure and then have to update them again in Q3 or Q4.

Build a new house!

Plaid ships in March!!! (0-60 1.99); -trimotor, >1000 horsepower
but, Plaid+ (>500 mi range and <1.99) is late 2021

Plaid + will use same battery structure as Roadster uses. 4680 cells for + and 2170 or 18650 for the other trims. I expect a surprise in the 4th quarter "Roadster"

Rooting for 900 this year. If Berlin and Austin can deliver 100k cars between them, and Shanghai can ramp up its capacity from the current 450, we have a shot at.. gasps.. 1 Million units!!

I read your note and immediately thought "900 this year? How about this week?"

Macros have been going down after market close. Dragging TSLA down among others.

Nasdaq -3.15, S&P500 -2.83

What we are looking at this particular moment has nothing to do with the AH macros.

Here is a screen grab of the turn signals from the new steering wheel.

Left side of the wheel.

i'm gonna trust Tesla did testing on teh wheel and people will love it. I think their persona for the S is someone who actively wants a sportier drive with the fast acceleration times. Daily driving will prob be autonomous.
