It more sounds like overly strict bean counters have won some internal battle at Tesla, thereby ensuring cost cutting measures are winning out over everything else. Regardless of brand damage, etc.
Did they have a change of CFO or similar in the last 6 months?
- electriclove 4y agoIt is definitely related to cost cutting and margins. This is what will help them survive a downturn.
- TeMPOraL 4y agoBut it makes no sense. Why parking sensors? Why not find a cheaper supplier for upholstery or remove any of the completely unnecessary and barely noticeable non-functional elements of what's still a luxury brand? Surely ultrasound ranging sensors are dirt cheap, and the reaction of the press 100% predictable, so it should've been obvious to any bean counter that this is a self-harming move.
