I've heard process inefficiencies in their current manufacturing pipeline held as a criticism against Tesla. But while it's less ideal than having all the inefficiencies worked out already, I consider this _promising_. They have produced S&X at around 25% gross margin up until now, IIRC. If there is still relatively low-hanging fruit to be picked, that is another line of defense against being undercut by the competition.
As long as a significant part of that gross margin can be put back into capital expenditures (developing new vehicles and infrastructure, developing more manufacturing capacity), things are looking bright for continued EV development and adoption regardless of what the incumbent manufacturers are up to.
