I don’t necessarily agree with most but it seems like Tesla becoming a battery company primarily is interesting enough to give it a look.
The main reason they’d probably want to be a car company is margins - I’d bet the battery market blows up with competitors as it’s sort of doing now and it’s almost too much of a risk to be all in on just batteries, where if you’re a battery wholesaler any shift in say resource mining availability could create pressure, where if you have a decent margin product on the back of it you can “eat” those costs, and also aren’t beholden to other customers. The legacy auto industry doesn’t treat suppliers well.
