Tesla may be facing headwinds, but reality is these legacy car maker's products are just not competitive with Tesla. Many are going to die in the transition, as they can't make a great all integrated product. They just don't know how, and with UAW strikes, it's not like they're going to learn how to and gain better economics in the future either.
These companies are walking dead. And like IBM, they probably can be walking dead for a good while.
- nickpeterson 3y agoI agree somewhat, but there are a lot of factors. They have good distribution, brand recognition, banking/finance, etc. The problem almost all car companies have is they’re not really software development companies, and they can’t stomach outsourcing it until they fail for awhile and burn a bunch of time and money. If I was a smaller car brand I’d be looking to cut a deal with Apple (software, battery tech, touchscreens, services).
