"If you can do burst runs of 15 km/hour, that doesn’t mean you can run a three hour marathon."
Once you're in 3 hour marathon territory, what you can do for 1 mile is a lot more relevant to what you can do for 26.2 miles than you might think. One of the tent poles of effective marathon/half marathon training is to make your race pace into a drumbeat. You want to feel your race pace in your bones. Very effective workouts look like: take your marathon race pace, and run 5 minutes easy/5 minutes hard (~race pace) for 60, or 10 easy/10 hard for 80.
Tesla is talking about burst builds that last for a week. That sounds like very effective training that will prepare them for race day.
- cjhopman 9y ago"Tesla is talking about burst builds that last for a week". Was that in the call? Their statement says "Several manufacturing lines [...] have demonstrated a manufacturing ability in excess of 1,000 units per week during burst builds of short duration. Other lines, [...] have demonstrated burst builds of about 500 units per week...". AFAIK, "short duration" != "a week".
- Someone 9y ago”In Q3, we delivered […] 222 Model 3 vehicles” Assuming they didn’t produce a lot more than they delivered, if they had even one week in which they produced 500 Model 3s, they also must have had weeks in which they destroyed them.
- coolspot 9y agoProbably has something to do with pair particle production [1]: 500 virtual Model 3 is produced along with 500 anti-Model 3 then they are immediately annihilated. [1] - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pair_production https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pair_production
