I think this is a great move for Elon to devote more time for SpaceX. His cousins will eventually be running the combined Tesla/SolarCity company.

- andrewtbham 10y agoi doubt that. they didn't do a great job with solar city. jb straubel will probably end up running tesla.
- decasteve 10y agoAlmost, but not quite. JB Straubel will be the next Tesla CEO. This will happen after the Model 3 launch and after Tesla sells off its car manufacturing to focus on battery/energy/infrastructure.
- neurotech1 10y agoDo you have a source for selling off the car manufacturing part of Tesla? Its worth noting that JB Straubel is just as passionate about electric vehicles as Elon is. JB actually worked on electric aircraft at his previous company, Volacom. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JB_Straubel https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JB_Straubel
- decasteve 10y agoNo source. Armchair prediction. Not to be taken too seriously.
