So Tesla has two problems, according to the article:
- They can't ramp up production fast enough to keep up with the demand indicated by pre-orders.
- Pre-orders are likely to be overstating demand substantially, since they are refundable and therefore vulnerable to speculation.
...Either one of these problems by itself could be a threat, but both together seem somewhat less worrying.
- pgwhalen 10y agoIf you interpret "can't ramp up" as "can't ramp up without extreme cost/risk," one could envision both being a problem. They could go all in and fail to see the demand they were expecting.
