Did the Q3 email say that it was to boost sales to show profitability?
I think it's fair to assume that they discounted the price because they were close to announce an "hardware" update.
- mitchellh 10y agoThe Q3 email specifically said it was to boost sales to show profitability. You can find it via Google, it was publicly leaked. That doesn't make your latter point wrong though, that was probably true too!

- jasonlingx 10y agoThis email does not mention anything about discounts. It does not even mention sales. It does talk about "building and delivering every car we possibly can".
