Perhaps the market currently overvalues Tesla? This isn't a very convincing argument.

Perhaps the market currently overvalues Tesla?
This isn't a very convincing argument.
- ALittleLight 6y agoIsn't it a more convincing argument than someone just commenting "it's not translating well". I see Teslas on the street every day. I've driven a Tesla. The next car I buy is going to be a Tesla. I don't know if the market evaluation is right or wrong but Musk is clearly making cars that many people like. Hard for me to see how that is a bad translation.
- totalZero 6y agoNone of this has to do with whether the iterative approach to vehicle manufacturing is going well. (Enjoy your future Tesla.)
- omginternets 6y agoClaim: "Tesla's approach to manufacturing results in high-quality cars." You are replacing "high-quality cars" with "a successful business", and then responding in the affirmative. I'm assuming this is because you misread the subject of the debate.
- ALittleLight 6y agoI interpret "high-quality cars" as "cars that people want to buy" whereas you seem to be interpreting it as a claim about door panels or general fit and finish. If people would rather own car X compared to car Y in what sense is Y of higher quality than X even if minor details on Y are flawless and X has some problems?
- omginternets 6y ago> I interpret "high-quality cars" as "cars that people want to buy" Oh please, now you’re just being obtuse. The discussion is about hardware failures due to poor manufacturing.
- aynyc 6y agoI was commenting on iterative approach of mass production of quality cars isn't translating well. I don't think anyone can say Tesla has better build quality than Toyota/Honda/Lexus. And EV is also considerably simpler than ICE vehicle in terms of moving parts. I don't think Tesla is bad, in fact, I think Tesla is the future. That doesn't mean I want to be the consumer with paint problem or leaking body while Tesla ramps up.
