> What's Tesla's real endgame?
Batteries. If no one buys Tesla cars but all the car makers buy Tesla batteries, Tesla still wins. Gigafactory 1 at full production will be making about as many batteries as the entire planet produced in 2016. They're already working on Gigafactory 2. This is why they released all their patents - Tesla wins if electric cars win in general. Doesn't need to be Tesla cars.
