This thread is about innovation, not sales.
- disgruntledphd2 7y agoI mean, I get your point, but unless there are enough sales, pretty soon there will be no money for innovation.
- 2rsf 7y agoHow are Tesla more innovative than other companies ? They kicked off a big conceptual change but I don't see that they have a significant technological advantage over other companies like Volvo.
- aguyfromnb 7y ago>How are Tesla more innovative than other companies ? People always seem to compare Tesla technology of tomorrow with what its competitors are doing right now. That's why Volvo "only" has level 3 self-driving, while Tesla has a fleet of robotaxis that are earning you money on its ride-sharing app while you sleep. I joke, but a large portion of the Tesla fan base has no clue what is going on in the autonomous driving or auto manufacturer world outside of Tesla. Tesla has been a big innovator, but they aren't leaders in everything....not even close.
- manigandham 7y ago> "Tesla has been a big innovator" The thread is about innovation, so that's what counts. And what other manufacturer matches what Tesla has driving on the roads today? The closest realistic challenger is the expensive Porsche Taycan which is still missing all the functionality and usability features.
- aguyfromnb 7y agoI'm not sure announcing products with no capacity to manufacture them should be considered "innovation".
