He’s very well spoken too, just has a natural authority in his voice and never fumbles over words. In fact, he was supposed to teach one of those microchipped monkeys Quantum Physics. But he’s been so busy lately, that’ll have to be one of his later Gifts to Humanity.
It’s the marketing hypertrain in action. The only real advantages Tesla ever had were their motors (the one designed by the 2 real Tesla founders) and their deal with Panasonic, which allowed them to manufacture batteries in house, bringing down the cost. The car itself was just a plastic shell for the two.
That time has now come and gone. All the other auto companies make competing, if not better motors, and all the other battery companies are also making “tabless” batteries. BMW is even rocking true solid-state batteries in some of their newer cars.
Oh, and the dumpster fire that they call “self-driving”. Can’t forget about that.
