- panick21_ 3y agoYes, they were planning ahead. They knew they would sell more vehicles in the future, and thus the effort was worth it. Not just for V1, but the following version as well. Once you have an internal team, you can vertically integrate and costume the solution to your needs exactly rather then buying a generic part from a supplier. Things like OTA updates are just easier if you control the software and hardware stack yourself. And once you have a team with expertise you can use them for other projects as well, like Dojo.
