Unveiling on Oct 17th

[ggnykk]

Iron Man metal suit version 1

... or Model X without FWD.

Never!! That would be a proof og failure. Elon would not admit that.

 

[mercer2]

We should do a poll on the best 5-10 assumptions to kake it fun and see who was right.

I wish it was the snak but my vote is on a AP 2.0

 

[Kbra]

Decoupling Supercharging from the price and making it pay as you go.

 

[kwjayhawk]

AP2.0 so I can take ownership of an even more depreciated AP 0.0?!

Please?

kthxelonbye

Folding seat option for Model X (5 seat)
100D S/X
AP2

Good list.
My guess is the AP2 hardware. Coolest surprise would be the folding Model X seat option.

If it is new AP 2.0 hardware why did they ship P100Ds in Q3 and not announce the P100D a couple months later to align first deliveries with the new hardware? I am assuming they would retro install for the already shipped ones but still..

AP 2.0
Current orders not included, need to order new package with Birdseye view and extra radar's.

If that's the announcement, how much more do you think that would add to the price of a car? Or do you think it would just be included in the current auto-pilot upgrade cost?

 

[mmccord]

Throwing my wild ass guess in the ring: Tesla motorcycle.

 

[Magzzy]

Could be the prepaid supercharging.
Maybe Introduce a lower priced 60 without the lifetime supercharging.

 

[Mjølner]

1200$ extra, but I'm just guessing.....

 

[HookBill]

If that's the announcement, how much more do you think that would add to the price of a car? Or do you think it would just be included in the current auto-pilot upgrade cost?

Doubt it would add any more as they just recently increased the price of AP Another $500.

What's your best bet on what Tesla will reveal on Oct 17th?

 

[flashflood]

I pray to God they're announcing a fully autonomous presidential candidate who will be on the ballot in all 50 states.

Elon Musk uses language precisely. "Unveiling" is a visual word, which means he's going to *show* something, not just *announce* something. He said "product", not "feature", so it's not AP 2.0. And he said "unexpected by most", which rules out both AP 2.0 and (non-P) 100D. My best guess is a next-gen roadster.

 

[Grendal]

The cryptic EM hype machine generates another tweet. He must have sensed the faithful are getting bored, restless, or considering a Bolt.

Just in time to tweet up interest in the stock ahead of another round of dilution.

Tiresome.

It's only hype if it doesn't live up to expectations. Tesla mostly exceeds expectations and you often get more than you expect.

EM already said that they will not have another dilution this year. Most understand that you have to spend money to make money. So even if they did need to do more then they should get it done.

Back to the subject:
It won't be the Model Y. Tesla needs to build the Model 3 before introducing another vehicle. Hopefully they learned that lesson from the Model X.

Factory 2.0. There have been articles about an expansion of the Fremont factory.

A completely new product stemming from the batteries in production from the gigafactory. Some other type of energy storage device besides Powerwall and Powerpack.

The new products from the Solar City merger and a build on how they will integrate with Tesla products.

For what it's worth, some people are saying it's AP 2.0: Model3OwnersClub on Twitter

 

[systemcrashed]

My guess is a trailer, maybe even with a battery pack

 

[Redmiata98]

EM is announcing that he is going to devote his full time to SPACEX. Ford has agreed to buy Tesla and continue the future vision already established by EM.

 

[TexasEV]

That's neither a product announcement nor something unexpected.
