Teslas days are numbered however. Now that the old established companies are making all electric vehicles and with Elon’s erratic bahvior I dont see a bright future. Tesla was useful in establishing an Electric car market and doing the heavy lifting of converting people to electric cars and for a longtime they were the only game in town. Musk was also seen in a better light. But things have been going down hill at an accelerated pace since the Twitter acquisition. People now would much rather buy a different electric car then support Musk
I was thinking of buying a Tesla years ago. Now? Nope. Choice and Elon are why.
Who hates musk except for Redditors?
Meh, they'll probably fire Musk eventually, and if they do manage to ever pull off full autonomous-driving, that will be huge.
Although yeah, in the short term, electric cars are becoming fairly common and Tesla is basically just one of many options. Considering the CEO seems to be having some kind of very public mental breakdown, I wouldn't be very confident about buying a Tesla anymore (especially considering future software updates have a huge effect on their cars).
I still think they'll be around a long time though, or at least the brand name will be.
More like legacy auto’s days are numbered.
It is very very very hard to survive a technology paradigm shift in an industry. Could probably count on one hand the number of typewriter companies that survived to today as PC manufacturers. I think IBM was the last, when Lenovo sold to a Chinese company.
the future of tesla isnt cars, its ai and batteries
The money is in all the data Tesla is collecting and their charging infrastructure - which can sell or license to insurance companies, other car makers, and self driving software companies. When we buy/drive a Tesla - we just paid to be a data collector and beta testers.
