If you followed news about Tesla, they just announced big innovations in the battery sector cutting battery costs down in half over the next 3 years. So by the time the credits are no longer contributing to the revenue, the production costs will have been lowered considerably.
- ksec 6y agoWell yes. But if anyone followed news about Tesla, we should have Lv4 / 5 AV or RoboTaxi by now. i.e Elon's Time Scale are not very reliable. Although I have come to the conclusion he does it on purpose to push the team to come up with the results.
- _ph_ 6y agoYes, Elon time scales can be shifting. But this was only one of several examples of where the technology is changing, especially making car production cheaper. By the time the credits run out, car production will be cheaper. The FSD claims of Elon certainly are the ones, which have shifted most and basically autonomous driving is still an unsolved problem. The planned production enhancements are far more straight-forward, so one can expect them to come to pass. And even with FSD: if you look at the new beta release released two days ago, it is an amazing improvement, check out the first user reviews.
