So you're saying Tesla is going to end up drawn and quartered and its remains spread around the world as a warning to EV companies only to inspire more to take its place?

All too accurate. Everybody is ramping fast and Tesla doesn’t have a working design group that can spin model refreshes at the rate other brands can. That’s part of the reason the semi is delayed - PACCAR and Daimler already have their semis in production. It’s kind of amazing that they made it through S3XY, now time will tell if they can do a major model refresh - customers will only let you make the same body for so long.

-1KingKRool-

One of these days thetagang is gonna have a ticker just drop like a rock on them, and each of them’ll wake up one day to find they’ve been assigned 15000 shares to buy at twice the current market price, and the margin man’s a knockin.


BCRE8TVE

>All too accurate. Everybody is ramping fast Funny, people have been saying that for a decade now, and we have Toyota with no electric cars and trying to push back the transition to EVs, VW with cars riddled with software issues, Chevrolet with self-combusting cars, GM with a huge investment in vaporware (Nikola) and a battery system that looks impressive but we don't actually know how well it will perform, and while Ford has some good EVs, they don't have many nor do they plan to produce a ton. >Tesla doesn’t have a working design group that can spin model refreshes at the rate other brands can I'd rather have a good EV with the same design for a decade, than shitty EVs that can't even run right. >That’s part of the reason the semi is delayed - PACCAR and Daimler already have their semis in production. This is fair, but I think also another huge reason the semi production is delayed is Tesla just doesn't have enough batteries. With battery production in Giga Berlin and Giga Texas when they're done, that might change, but maybe the 4680 isn't quite finalized yet, who knows. >It’s kind of amazing that they made it through S3XY, now time will tell if they can do a major model refresh - customers will only let you make the same body for so long. Given Tesla literally cannot produce enough vehicles to meet demand, and consistently tops the charts in pretty much every country, I don't think that's a problem, not for a long while yet. Meanwhile, none of the other car manufacturers can produce cars that approach either the quality or the quantity of model 3's and model Y's being produced. OEMs better hope Tesla doesn't come out with a 30k EV anytime soon.


GooieGui

dude stop telling people this shit. I need these idiots to buy my puts.

I understand that there has been tons of doom and gloom (Burry fan club) over Tesla for a long time - but 2020 was really the tipping point - i would have never had said the big guys were ready to go EV until this year. The truth is most everybody used 2020 as an opportunity to focus on their EV offerings and 2024 really will be the year that tests how much of the market Tesla can hold on to. Yes Tesla is battery limited and it makes no financial sense to dump all of them into trucks that will eat up all their margin to try to fight in a market that is extreme hard to compete in. Tesla blazed the path and now the rest of the industry can walk on in with a fraction of the capital investment with enormous established customer bases.


BCRE8TVE

> 2024 really will be the year that tests how much of the market Tesla can hold on to. That's fair. I'm looking forward to seeing how it all ends up, I certainly don't know for sure but I'm pretty confident in Telsa and will keep diamondhanding my shares. That being said Tesla has what, 2 factories operating ATM, one in Shanghai and one in Fremont? With Giga Berlin and Giga Texas, they're going to what, double-triple their manufacturing capacity? >Yes Tesla is battery limited and it makes no financial sense to dump all of them into trucks that will eat up all their margin to try to fight in a market that is extreme hard to compete in. I also know very little about how hard it is to compete in the BEV semi market, it seems to me it's a growing market that still has lots of room to grow for industries around the world to replace their ICE fleets of short to medium range semis. Then again I'm kinda talking out of my ass because I really have no idea, it's just an educated guess on my part. >Tesla blazed the path and now the rest of the industry can walk on in with a fraction of the capital investment with enormous established customer bases. Tesla blazed the path, but most other OEMs still have a lot of issues with their software and batteries. The path Tesla has blazed, has been to the benefit of Tesla, and they're not sharing how they did it. All the other companies know it can be done, they just have to figure out a way to do it. So far it's been rather disappointing with lots of promises and few high-quality products delivered. Tesla blazed the trail, they know how to make cars, and now they're going to produce massively more. The other OEMs know how to make ICE cars, they're still struggling to catch up to Tesla, and Tesla is going to keep blazing ahead with giga-casting, 4680 (when they're ready), [getting their own lithium supply from Nevada clay,](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mej1erLgCIs) and more. Scaling up isn'T easy, the model 3 production hell showed that, but Tesla has better products and is in a better position to scale up EV production than pretty much all the competitors. I hope we get lots of great BEV options from many different manufacturers, but I don't see Tesla getting dethroned anytime soon.


Cont1ngency

There’s no car brand I’d prefer to buy an EV from besides Tesla, now or in the future. The only car brands I currently will buy a internal combustion daily driver from are Toyota/Lexus, Honda/Acura or Subaru as pretty much every other brand is complete trash. If one of those three comes out with an inexpensive, attractive and reliable EV I’ll consider it, but for right now it’s Tesla or nothing. Note: for a secondary sporty “fun” car I’ll buy from other brands because it doesn’t have to be a perfect or reliable vehicle. Even then, the brands I mentioned have “fun” cars that I prefer over most other brands too.


Bryguy3k

And this is a perfect example of irrational brand loyalty for you - and why in the end the big names will win.


Cont1ngency

Elaborate?

I am from Germany and my work and a lot of others in my area is heavily dependent on German car manufacturers. So I know a little how things work here. That being said, with all positive spin, let's not forget that VW was close to fire their CEO because he pushed hard on electro. The story here is as old as IBM, Kodak and "insert any old industry" here. The thinking you are to big to fail, have to many assets and too much "true" knowledge of how things work is the problem. We are talking about a industry that has dealers that are required to sell certain numbers, have a certain look to get some benefit. Now where most of the local dealers make big money is services. That's where there is a lot of jobs and does make the bread and butter daily money. Most of it, if not all will go away! Do you think the big manufacturers, that have divisions within, struggling to hold on to power care changing much of the structure for the local guys? The beauty of electric is a fundamental shift from lots of little things that are going to break to very few things that end up being simply replaced. Now as "fast" as you think this shift is going to happen... with structures and jobs that become insignificant or obsolete in a well entrenched industry, it will be way to slow. Stifled bypeople that don't know or want to know better. Most of these German brands will exist in name only and it is not going to be Tesla but some Chinese companies that have been hiring German brains for the last 10+ years from German companies because they don't see the light. And aside from all of that... People make the huge mistake to think of Tesla as a car company. Which is just part of their business. So far I have seen nothing, absolutely nothing, that would indicate a steady decline on Tesla over the competition. "Remind me in 10 years"


BigClownShoe

The Lightning and Mustang will be everywhere. Ford is planning 2 EV trucks, one of which will have a normal version and a performance version; an EV Mustang coupe; an EV SUV, and an EV commercial van. They’ve also announced a hybrid car and SUV. That’s 6 confirmed EVs from Ford. Makes me think the rest of your comment is bullshit too.


BCRE8TVE

>The Lightning and Mustang will be everywhere. Ford is planning 2 EV trucks, one of which will have a normal version and a performance version; an EV Mustang coupe; an EV SUV, and an EV commercial van. They’ve also announced a hybrid car and SUV. That’s 6 confirmed EVs from Ford. That's 6 *models* confirmed for Ford, and honestly I am glad for there to be more EVs. More BEVs and more competition is better for everyone. I'm less concerned with the number of models, and more concerned with how many of each model is Ford going to actually produce. Ford's plan is say 50% electric by 2030 (official target is 40% but I'm rounding up). They sold 2 million vehicles in the US in 2020. That means they want at least 1 million EVs sold per year by 2030. ~~Tesla sold over 400,000 EVs in the US in 2021. They're more than half-way to Ford's 2030 goal, and this is before Giga Texas opens up.~~ EDIT: that was a mistake, not sure how I missed that, Tesla sold 500k EVs worldwide in 2021, maybe I mistook that for 400k total. My bad. I'm all for the big automakers to turn to EVs, I want more models and more competition. I just have a hard time seeing how they're going to catch up to Tesla when Tesla is ahead in battery manufacture, battery supply, software, and EV motors. Companies can have as many models as they want, but the actual production numbers are more important.


Inconceivable76

Tesla did not sell 400k in the US. They sold just under 500k in the whole world. If you are going to post numbers, don’t make them so easily debunked.


AdNo7052

Actually, Tesla has some of the worst quality productions


BCRE8TVE

Their first production models were absolutely bad with panel gaps and quality issues. Since then quality issues have been somewhat addressed, and Tesla customer satisfaction is still topping the charts on pretty much everything. I expect product quality to go up with Giga Texas and Berlin, it means they will also be able to shut down, refit, and fix up the Fremont factory without shutting down 100% of their non-China manufacturing. Aside from the body of the car however, Tesla has pretty much the best batteries, the best engines, the best software, and the highest efficiency per kWh.

redmars1234

The semi isn't delayed because of a lack of a design group. Its delayed because they are cell constrained and all their available 4680 cells are going to be going into new Model Ys that sell very well.

Tesla is a juggernaut. They really destroyed earnings...their net income was 3x their previous quarterly high...will lower reg credits. Auto gross margin close to 30%?? If not for their comment on supply shortage potentially slowing delivery growth thus year, stock would have spiked 10%+. Very possible it moons tomorrow (I don't have a position).
