>Tesla came close but long term their reliability...
I have joked, since 2016, that Tesla will be among the largest donators of intellectual property [to other vehicle manufacturers incorporating their ideas]; but that ultimately hybrid drivetrains like Toyota's are a better solution for most long-distance travelers.

Dear Tesla:
Thanks for all the R&D.
Infamously yours,

- TheLoafOfBread 3y agoIf you thinks those open sourced patents, those are honeypots for OEMs. If you will use them, you are automatically giving Tesla your patents for free. Nobody used Tesla patents.
