What’s disappointing is going to an EV show in Melbourne and not seeing Tesla there.
I didn't go but WOW. Really! Elon has moved on to new things. He seems to be getting involved with Governments and politics.
Elon shutting down the tesla charging team was not a good move.
Have any of the SuperChargers you regularly use failed since?
or a spike in people complaining about SuperChargers on social media?
Think about the recent (stock) market turmoil and how Elon's prescient "right-sizing" of the headcount to cut costs means the stock didn't tank as much as it could have ...
@@dwylhq874 The reliability of the charging stations is part of my point. They are cash cows, set it and forget it. Tesla is hands down the best charging system around the world. Now that the EV market is growing well beyond Tesla there is an opportunity to make even more money without outputting more capital by licensing access to other car companies. Charging stations have very predictable overhead and minimal maintenance to provide revenue compared to gas stations.
This is not like firing the technical staff in twitter and therefore having technical problems with stuff that doesn't increase revenue. This is like having the most number and best gas station network in the early 1900's then slow down building them or stop investing in them just when gas cars were taking off. Letting competitors steal your greatest advantage/cash cow.
Stock holders should be furious.
@@dwylhq874 Tesla chargers have a head start on the competition. They are cash cows and have a huge unrealized up side if licensed to other car companies.
Predictable, reliable revenue, little downside, easy maintenance, currently with a huge lead in the market, even more potential. And you slow it down just when the EV revolution is starting (in a historic sense).
Stock holders should be furious.
@@dwylhq874 it’s not about the superchargers failing, it’s about the fact that it was a really bad PR move at a time when Tesla could least afford it. Also, the supercharger division is very profitable and they haven’t been able to expand as fast as normal due to the department’s firing. In fact, Elon tried to rehire many of the fired workers after the fact, but many had already taken jobs with other companies by then. And I don’t blame them for not wanting to return to work for a boss like that. 😬
@@dwylhq874Actually a new supercharger site that I was counting on was abandoned and sold off after he axed the entire team over a personal spat. So there certainly are consequences to running an enterprise like a petulant child.
This just goes to show how disconnected Elon is from Tesla and how much of a part time CEO he is. Multiple new sales initiatives go through and he has no idea about it? He then cancels the Costco deal after hearing about it on X? Maybe he should spend less time online and more time talking to his employees. It’s pretty clear why some of his employees refer to him as a pigeon CEO. He swoops in, 💩s on ideas, then flies away. Tesla needs a full time CEO, not whatever this is.
@glentonrichards You are clueless. He allows people to make a lot more decisions until he decides that ir is not best.
@@michaelholliday100 he’s a micromanager. And the fact that he didn’t even let the Costco deal get tested out and canceled it after he heard about it on X shows that. He might be smart but micromanaging is not a good quality in a CEO.
@glentonrichards Worked in upper management in a manufacturing environment prior to retirement. Elon is not a micro-manager he empowers to make more independent decisions than almost any CEO that I know. That being said, if there is something that he does not like, he is not afraid to step in and get involved. He even empowers those on the assembly line to make changes in protocols.
@@michaelholliday100no he does not.. he is absolutely a micro controller… listen to testimonies from people who worked close to him for the past 2 decades
@Alperic27 He could never run Space X, X, Tesla, Neuralink, xAI, and more. If he could micromanage all of those companies, he would need to be superhuman. No way....
After having a free month of FSD, I’m even more convinced it is not ready after nearly causing a few accidents in normal driving conditions such as fog, rain, and sun glare.
What if it's never ready?
Interesting; I’ve had mostly the opposite reaction: In the 9 days we’ve had our MYLR I’ve found FSD to work far better than I expected. That, not to suggest that it’s flawless by any means.
Then again, we rarely have fog out here, especially not this time of year. However, inability to work with fog is, arguably at least, due to Tesla removing radar and ultrasonic sensors, just for cost-cutting.
@@mr88cet if I’m going to be honest, it IS impressive. However, I drive due-east into work every morning and my MYLR had trouble “seeing” the cars in front of me and nearly caused a few accidents. The scariest was when it pulled into cross traffic onto a main road because it can’t “see” a car coming up over the crest of a hill. This situation required the oncoming car to slam on their brakes. For me, FSD can’t safely take me to work or drive out of my subdivision. Aside from that, it worked 🫤
@@bdgiant, good reality check there, thanks! I’ll be especially cautious of scenarios involving driving into the Sun.
FWIW though, *_I_* often find it difficult to drive when the Sun is directly ahead. In 47 years of driving, I’ve only had one accident (in which there was any damage). I turned into the morning Sun and was thus suddenly blinded, and can-openered my right front fender on a stationary object that was parked in the shadow by the side of the road. Thankfully no damage to that stationary object.
Yeah, I have no delusions that it’s flawless. Definitely have to watch it carefully. *_So far_* though, I’ve found that FSD deals with the Sun in its eyes about as well as I do, which is “acceptably, but not ideally.” However, I’ll be sure to eagle-eye it especially carefully in such scenarios.
@@DCGreenZone, so far I’ve seen FSD break the law only once. Specifically, it executed an otherwise-flawless right turn at an intersection, but failed to signal that turn. I have also seen a couple cases where it at least _looked like_ it was about to take a left turn into the right lane, but I intervened. So, I don’t know _for-sure_ that would have broken the law in those cases, but it did look like it was about to.
Most of the cases where FSD has, in my view at least, driven badly, but not technically broken the law, have involved lane changes, such as spending too long in the left lane, making lane changes questionably soon after taking a freeway exit, or passing a slow-poke car questionably soon before needing to take an exit to the right.
Elon has lost his way and taken his eye off the ball.
STOCK HOLDERS GAVE HIM THE BONUS HE WANTED THEN HE GOES ON X AND FLAKES OUTS. IT'S GETTING VERY HARD TO ADMIRE HIM, HE CLEARLY HAS NO SELF CONTROL.
He needs to realize that he is a terrible judge of social situations, including those in his own families
You do know that he still hasn't been paid, right?
@@stephencrook6998 There is not right or wrong on social issues. There are differences in opinion.
@@surferdude4487I wish I wasn't paid either!
Musk is literally driving customers away due to his extreme views, I'm a fan and have a model 3 but he needs to refocus and get out of politics.
😂
Weird comment. When did he go into politics
@@MitoRoshi3586 you can't be that clueless
@@MitoRoshi3586 When he bought Twitter !😊
@@MitoRoshi3586 dumb or just head completely in the sand?
Well a lot of people aren't going to buy a car without stalks
This. Losing stalks was just dumb
Then they will. People will adapt.
Those are the ones he suggested sell their shares!!!
Well, I just test drove the new model 3 without a stalks and it was my first time. Amazingly I figured out how to make it work in about 30 seconds. I think people, particularly those of us used to playing video games, will get use to pushing buttons instead.
@@dr.markevers8331 easy to figure out, terrible to use. Those of us who've used both realize the value of large levers over capacitive button--levers are easy to operate in any condition (looking away, stress, moisture, etc.) It''s the same reason the "buttons" on your ar-15 (bolt release, forward assist, etc.) are operated with a handsmack rather than a push of your thumb even though either could work. It's also why people love to mod bolt release to be larger and ambidextrous. There is value in making something large and simple to use without needing precision input. Tesla fanbois drink so much copium they ignore this obvious fact and instead pretend everyone who prefers stalks is just too dumb to figure out a button
Elon should get off X. I think it probably brings out some compulsions and wastes his time...like me with youtube right now.
Elon's nuts. For so long I wanted a Tesla (daughter has a 2018 M3) but he's just gone nuts and I can't give him any of my hard earned money. Once the Rivian R2 is out, that's where I'll go. Not that anybody cares or asked.
My thinking exactly
Thanks for great 👍🏻 updates pal
I’m bought a Tesla because of his views!! Smartest man in the world right now!!
I hated the purchase process from beginning to end - having a company like Costco who is truly customer oriented would be a huge improvement over what I experienced in my purchase assuming they actually were involved in the process and not just supplying a link in their app or website. I have come to realize that Tesla sells cars only to benefit Tesla and care little to nothing about the new or potential owner. I like my car, for the most part but based on my experience with Tesla so far, like many others, I kind of doubt I will be a repeat customer unless things change significantly.
Seriously? What do you want someone there to pressure you, suggest a $900 coat of wax and make you feel like you're winning because they shave a few hundred off the sticker price? I loved my experience buying one. I spec'd it, a few weeks later it was available and I picked it up, less than 15minutes to sign the paperwork and drive off.
@@MDC_1985 You have obviously never shopped COSTCO. AND Yes I want someone assigned to answer my questions and guide me thru the process. I had messages go unanswered, got constant notifications that I was going to loose the vehicle because of one reason or another. I got better financing from outside of Tesla and this takes time. I got incorrect information from Tesla store customer sales support folks. If it wasn’t for the fear of loosing the federal tax rebate at the end of the year I would have walked away from the car a 3 different points. Tesla forgot who was the customer at almost every step of the way - it was terrible experience.
@@MDC_1985 You have obviously never shopped COSTCO for a major purchase. AND YES I want a person assigned to my purchase, a single point of contact, until delivery. I got better financing outside of Tesla and this takes time so I was hounded with automated TXT and emails threatening loss of the vehicle if I did not comply. Each time I tried I got a different person, often not even in my city who had to be brought up to speed. On more than one occasion the information they provided turned out to be incorrect. My trade was mishandled and I had to settle for less than I should have because everything goes to auction so you get the least value on your trade. IF I was not concerned about loosing the FED TAX Rebate I would have walked away from the car on 3 different occasions. Simply put it was a the worst of my 11 car buying experiences and is in need of serious improvement.
According the Bloomburg 87% of Tesla owners replace their Tesla with another one. Far higher brand loyalty than most other OEM.
Elon's a CEO, a big part of his job is delegating authority to do stuff instead of trying to micromanage everything. I think all these cases of Tesla doing stuff, and Elon not be aware of it, and then going and canceling it is basically just showing that he kind of sucks at the not micromanaging bit of the job.
More narrative building from folks who always wanted Elon gone and capitalize at every instance. To get to Tesla is currently at, Elon would’ve had to be excellent at micro managing. Pure lies
💯!! He's a Tyrant -- winning the battles but losing the war
Good to know not to plug in any random outlet in Mexico
I love how you keep referring to “Tesla” having a different way of doing things when you mean Elon. There’s nothing wrong with Tesla, there’s plenty that could be said is wrong with Elon.
When your business model relies on costs efficiencies, it makes sense they don’t want to step away from direct sales and share their margins.
@@toulcaz31 Every sales model has a cost… currently Tesla’s includes showrooms and incentives like lending money below market rates. Placing a Tesla in each COSTCO show room would cost far less and put more EYES on their vehicles in a passive, non-threatening environment. COSTCO customers would likely be a good match for TESLA demographics as well.
In order for Tesla to continue to be successful, Elon has to go. He has become a toxic troll and is dragging the company down. His negatives far outweigh his accomplishments now.
If Tesla is truly getting ready to roll out a $30,000 vehicle, they will need things lije Costco in the mix. Not all buyers understand you have to use the Tesla app or site to buy the vehicle. Costco could connect many more buyers to Tesla. I do not want to see traditional advertising, like thosr over priced Super Bowl ad slots, but there are many other eays to connect to buyers and if Tesla is ever to hreak 10,000,000 units annual sales, those other channels will be needed.
Elon did say, it "Wasn't Approved", not that it would never be possible! Just not at that point, or in that way!
Musk has gone off the deep end with his focus on Twitter and showing people that he's a wingnut.
Man these NPCs are really programmed to dislike free speech.
Self driving has a ways to go. We recently bought a model Y and while it’s nice at times, it sucks in parking lots, confuses flashing yellow lights and can struggle with accurate speed limits on off ramps or circles. Like my kids it only works correctly with adult supervision.
Elon might be putting too many eggs in the self driving basket. Kinda like Zuckerberg with VR.
Meanwhile a model 2 at $25K would have made bank with the under $20K car market losing the mirage and only having Nissan Versa as competition. But sadly Elon wants to make headlines with autopilot and not expand the BEV market into a compact car replacement which is prime for the taking for BYD now.
Evidently you did not use FSD often... I have had FSD since October of 2021. And is amazing in and out of parking lots, including parking itself...
2023 Model Y Long Range owner, and I agree with you. FSD is a disaster in my vehicle. FSD feels years from being close to a true level 5 self-driving car. I have never had a drive in FSD mode where I didn't have to take over multiple times, from changing lanes into other vehicles to sudden mystery slowdowns on high-speed freeways. There could be something amiss with my car, but Tesla's service is awful and refuses to investigate it.
I really want Tesla to succeed, but right now, they are on a trajectory to not be a car company long enough to complete full autonomy (or even level 4).
@@michaelholliday100 It does nothing of the sort in parking lots. It cannot see the lines and struggles hard with determining where to go on unmarked lanes. Its even so bad it once keep waffling back and forth between turning left or right as it head straight towards the curb while making micro turns back and forth between left and right. Its not close to being ready to go by itself.
I think the whole EV situation should have been regulated from the start: small and local EVs developed for inner city areas first.
Most people do not understand that EVs are ideal for small but become impractical the bigger they get. It is a physics thing.
That is why EV drones are great but EV airliners are completely impractical at this point.
Should have started with a model 2, but that is not Elons style. He likes CT too much.
In the UK Tesla sell new inventory cars via autotrader. They have been for a while.
Tesla enables employees to do a lot of things. That means some will 'color out side of the lines' at some point.
Elon seems to be the worst at that. He fires whole departments just like they aren't actual people (with lives and families). Then realizes he was wrong, and tries to re-hire. He's mean. Now he owns and using twitter to spread lies. Worse than mean, its dangerous to blindly believe billionaires that are known to spread lies.
EVERY company empowers its sales promotion staff to organise promotions. Very few companies have a CEO who second-guesses, undercuts, and intermittently micromanages employees doing the relatively low level jobs they were hired to do.
Always possible a new comer will jump over Tesla in a major technology...even FSD. Lots of companies that are dying used to be leaders. Maybe Lucid will break through. They want cheaper cars eventually.
He said don't sell your shares if you believe we will solve FSD!! A more positive spin on his comment IMO!!
Sounds very like the "Next year" moto.
My 2022 Model 3 Performance hit a pole while using Smart Summon. My Passenger door was heavily dented, my passenger mirror broke. I am not reporting to tesla, they can pay for the damage if they want to data. Overall it sucks, it went haywire gave me no time to stop it)
Elon just has to shit on everything. Micromanaging any company is always it’s downfall.
What will make Tesla larger than any other company will be Optimus not self-driving.
I do not believe Tesla will be solving FSD proper before 2026.
But in the unlikely event that they do I have a few shares, it is called hedging bets and managing risks 🙂
The won't be able to with vision alone. They will need thermal too at least. Possibly radar and lidar as well.
It shows he's not engaged and not paying attention. This is why I voted No on his comp package
I am 85 years old have a model 3 Democrat hope Elon will stay out of politics.
I did not buy my MY because of the views of the CEO. I dont invest based on ESG scores either.
Elons comments and involvement in UK politics just proves he is not good at everything. I wish he would back off and concentrate on what he is good at, design,engineering team leadership. So disappointed in his choice of getting close to Trump, perhaps when he has tried to interview him he will realise his mistake.
the cars are just not more safe than people drivers… .. the software makes sure it returns control to people when it thinks an accident is un avoidable.
Elon should be focused in no particular order on 1) FSD 2) 4680 batteries 3) Cybertruck reliability 4) Ramp up Tesla Semi 5) Model 2 affordable smaller EV 6) Cost reduction on all models 7) Treat your employees like human beings, not Tesla Bots 8) Make reasonable promises and try to keep them.
Elon has a great mind that needs to stay focused on positive outcomes, not sucked down the negative dark holes of anger and hatred that permeates social media.
@@jeffreythurnau6796 Yes, especially that shitshow social media X that he owns and uses !
I got 3 and y ( 3 for three years now) FIX PHANTOM BRAKING FIRST!!! Then we can talk about autopilot,even navigation is broken now ,Tesla can’t fix basic problems.
My wife and I test drove a model y and would have bought one that day of the planting breaking want so absolutely awful. Even cheap cats 15 years ago had perfectly working Cruise control. Somehow Tesla can't get that out windshield wipers to work because Elon dingleberry musk thinks everything can be solved by ai
When I read this, I thought it was a post I wrote a few months ago. We own a M3 and a MY, and have taken each on long-distance, cross-country trips. Love those cars, but agree : FIX PHANTOM BRAKING FIRST!
true!!!!!
@@maciejdabrowski6694 I use FSD all the time. Haven’t experienced phantom braking in well over a year. Sounds like re-tread FUD troll posters here. No way you “test drove” a Tesla and “planting breaking want so absolutely awful.” LOL! Never seen sooooo many grammatical errors in just six words. LMFAO! Let alone you wouldn’t experience it on a test drive. SMH!
@mtxeer8838 phantom braking absolutely still happens. Just because it doesn't happen to you doesn't mean it doesn't happen in other people's cars.
Elon needs to go, he says super problematic things on weird X. He’s ruining the image of Tesla, including for me as I want to get rid of mine because of the WEIRD things Elon writes.
@@justinm.8970 bot accounts as usual.
The left made Tesla what it is. Alienate them as Musk is doing more and more every day and guess what. There’s gonna be a blue wave against Tesla and it ain’t gonna be no bots
Board of directors should oust him from the company in order to save it
There is the scene in Step Brothers where Seth Rogan sez: “Now the tuxedos just seem f*cked-up.” That’s the effect that Tesla’s quirks had on me once Musk thought he had been anointed
I believe FSB almost works. If that's good enough for you to trust your family to, go for it.
You have COMPLETELY missed the point about this Costco debacle, as well as the other times Elon wasn't aware of some marketing promotion, then rage-cancelled it when he found out. Your premise that employees are "going against" him is nonsense!! They are literally just doing their jobs. All this shows is what a TERRIBLE manager Elon is. A good CEO picks smart, effective top executives, lays out a clear vision for them to follow, and empowers them to run their respective areas. If this was happening at Tesla, none of these embarrassing incidents would take place. You don't see this kind of sloppiness at Apple, for example. Why? Because it is a well-run company, as opposed to the dumpster fire at Tesla. When a company is led by an authoritarian dictator who suffers wild, manic, drug-induced swings and has literally zero impulse control, chaos ensues. Elon is making terrible mistakes that will drive Tesla into the ground, unless the board takes decisive action while they still can and drives him out. If you still hold Tesla stock I would sell it ASAP while it's still worth something...
Lol apple well run company ? They wasted so much time and money on their so call Ev project and scrapped it. 😂😂😂😂😂
cost co should have been seen as a huge huge huge win
@@wensiangfongIt’s called R&D. Sometimes it doesn’t work as intended. Check AAPL stock and compare it to TSLA.
Would look at the competition very carefully on my next car. The more I drive my model Y the less impressed I an with the user interface. Elon's general behaviour is a huge disincentive. He doesn't seem to know that his main positive influence was to take risks and strive for better user experience. The UI is just ordinary even with the more recent obvious improvements. Tesla has smart people but seems is not the leader it once was when competition was minimal and under-developed.
If an employee is going against Elon, it’s not “Elon’s Revolt”.
Ty for the content Ryan.
Anyone remember when vw purchased a Chinese company a couple years back, for help with in-house software? Lolol man vw is not doing well in the software department.
To save Tesla, they need to hire a different CEO just for Tesla. Let him destroy his other companies. His self inflicted political Bs has ruined the brand. He is a liability. Tesla can do a lot better without him. What does he actually do? What skills does he possess? Tesla engineers are the real geniuses.
Remind me again why Elon deserves $55 billion in pay when he doesn't even know half the crap that's going on at his own company
No individual can possibly 'deserve' $55 billion no matter what they do, let alone Elon who's splitting his time and attention across ... shall we say ... endeavors of questionable importance to put it very mildly.
He brought the company from about 50 billion in value to over 650 billion and actually to a trillion at one point in value
And increased sales from 100k to almost 2 million vehickes per year 😂
Plus he made me 15x my investment from 2019 to 2021.. 😂
Stop repeating a Lie!
Elon's "Pay Package" does not "Give Elon $55 Billion in Cash or Credits!"
It simply "Allowed him to spend his own Money (or Borrowed Money), to the Tune of "$9 Billion" to buy Shares at a Set Price, once he Completed 10 Major Performance and Marker Steps, and then Hold this Shares for 5 Years before selling any!
How much this shares were going to be worth, in that initial or 5 Years Future, are "Worth" was, and is, "Anyone's Guess!"
But, in case you have never "Borrowed $9 Billion", don't think he won't have to make some form of regular payments, and pay interest, along the way!
Or, if you think he'll just "Print the Money", like The FED or the Mint, for "The Treasury", you've got a lot to learn!
@@Gunter_Customthat’s great that he did that, but that pay package is still overvalued, imo. Elon really needs to line up a successor CEO for Tesla as he’s clearly distracted by his many other endeavors. He can remain on the board, but Tesla needs someone full time to steer the ship.
@@glentonrichards
When you do that for a company then you can have that opinion ...
Leon will eventually break out of this phase in his life and do what needs to be done.
I like driving and do not have long commutes. Do not want self driving.
I purchased a used Model Y that has FSD, but I have only used it once or twice out of curiosity. I like the park assist and lane changing stuff, but FSD, for me, is a no go.

It's value is in driverless taxis. People can't afford to own things anymore (apparently, anyways) and are becoming more and more conditioned to accept monthly subscriptions. Drivers are the largest cost component in the ride share equation. Remove the driver and non-auto-enthusiasts of limited means, starting in urban markets but potentially growing beyond them, will start to question the need to own a car of their own when they can subscribe to a driverless taxi service for maybe $500 a month. No maintenance, no parking, no insurance, no registration, no charging or fueling, no driver for those who find that awkward.....
For private vehicle owners who don't intend to share their cars or profit from them, FSD would be a luxury that they can choose to pay for if they want it, but they aren't the primary market for it, just the test and development mules at the moment. I'm one, I love it, mostly use it on long drives and do the driving myself for my daily commutes.

It's absurd he doesn't understand how his..... Free speech... On Twitter hurts his business.
Can you trust Tesla data, and why?
Auto pilot needs to chill out with touching the steering wheel every 2 minutes especially when the car is in a turn.
Musk is our time Howard Hughes and will end in a similar tragic way.
Sadly, I think you might be right.
It's happening real time. What do you think would happen to SPACEX if Shotwell wasn't the CEO.
Can it happen soon please? 😂😅
More narrative building from folks who always wanted Elon gone. Yet how’d that shareholder vote go? 😂
@@ryansmithc Likely would not have passed if he had endorsed Trump before the vote. He's an engineering genius but clueless with politics.
I have an friend - he is good mechanic. He take old Tesla batteries and add to the old Fiat electric vehicle and boost range. These old electric cars was very simple - why there is no similar? In fact there is only battery, motor and gearbox. That`s it! We don`t need super duper systems which is BS. We need safety - airbags, motor+gearbox+battery. We need ABS. All theas AI chips make car useless/ expensive/ non working because you need pay more, more, more to get access... Crazy.
I've used FSD quite a bit over the last year, and while it is an impressive, recent moves and comments from Tesla have me a bit worried. Specifically HW 3.0. They are clearly focused on 4.0 and are now starting to talk about 5.0, which hasn't been released yet. Unlike past versions 3.0 cannot be upgraded to 4.0 and Elon has repeatedly talked about difficulties with backporting to 3.0 due to hardware limitations. This makes me doubt we will ever see unsupervised FSD on this hardware. In fact, I would bet on it.
How else will they boost car sales, than with planned obsolescence
@@bradleyfrank7933 Well planned obsolescence works for every other tech, like phones computers, etc.. Fortunately with FSD it's an addon that very few people actually buy. I would never buy FSD outright it's a $99 per month thing if you're using it. The car itself will still operate as a car even when they stop developing FSD for HW 3.0. As with any tech(and I'm looking at Samsung and Apple) buy for what it is, not what they promise it will be.
How is Elon so dense as to not see that he himself - his behaviors - are contributing to sales losses, separate to the fact that other manufacturers are producing better products
Lol and what did you think about bud light? Harley Davidson? Disney?
Lol and who is building better EVs? The brands that are all losing tons of money on EVs and spiraling?
@@Parker-- Everyone has their own personal limits - I don't happen to own a Harley, drink Bud Light or watch Disney. I happen to own a 2018 Model 3 and it's fine (not perfect by any means) but will be hard pressed to buy a new stalkless car produced by that nut case (my opinion). TBH to me the super charger network is the bigger asset .. you can of course do what you please and many (I am far from alone here) are turned off by Mr Musk's antics and we vote with our wallets.
Do you stop using china products because you don't agree with china government or you agreed with dictatorship but still stay in democratic country ? You itself is full of contradiction if you wanna see things in extreme way.
@@wensiangfong I was talking about Elon Musk - whataboutism is not relevant here
@@wensiangfongto answer your question: if people are upset with a CEO *and* the quality of a product goes down, it becomes much easier to buy a different product, even if it’s not the best in the market. Like if the GM CEO suddenly started talking about anti-vax theories in public and they also decided to make stalkless cars, I guarantee they’d start losing sales. Same goes for Apple, Nvidia, or any other well known company. The quality of Tesla has gone down (check the consumer ratings) and things that people don’t like about the cars have become mainstays (like removing the stalks). Add to that Elon’s nonsense postings on X and as you can see, Tesla’s sales have been slumping while other EV manufacturers have seen their sales climbing.
Can we also put the Aptera on that efficiency chart?
If Tesla could get more efficiency, wouldn't they be doing it? It's not like they haven't been doing EVs for more time than lucid, and have the advantage of volume....
Perhaps Tesla doesn’t think it’s worth losing $100,000 per car to get that high efficiency. It’s really like comparing what’s done in a laboratory to what’s done in real world production. I’m sure they could make an automobile survivable for 100 mile an hour crashes, but only the 1% will be able to afford to buy it.
See how crap byd mileage is compare to Tesla but people still buy byd.. efficiency itself aren't enough to convince people to buy ev now.
@@wensiangfong Entry price for BYD is significantly cheaper than Tesla, so yeah that’s why. They both cater to different markets, so I guess it wouldn’t make that much sense to include BYD into this discussion.
I’m not sure what to make of somebody buying a “fancy” EV, even if used, when they (apparently) don’t have a conventional/reliable electricity connection.
Then again, I’ve seen people buy expensive EVs and then use ethically-questionable means to save a few bucks charging it on free public charging (e.g., free 2-hour charging, so they go out every two hours to musical-chairs their car between those free chargers).
Tesla sales team was doing nothing innovative, there were only after more sales commissions to the detriment of Tesla brand. Its like Tiffany making a deal with Cotsco to sell diamont bracelets.
Tesla ain't Tiffany. More like the Honda Civic of EVs
Again, the reason why teslas sales are falling off is because they buried all their customers in 21/22 with negative equity with the price drops. You simply can not make up for a 30-40% reduction in MSRP on the secondary.
If you follow the news, it was because of COVID and short supply that make the car overpriced, now the price just normalised and cheaper due to unfair competitions from china government back car manufacturers.
LUCID is definitely a great brand, but if Tesla is already unaffordable for the majority of people, LUCID vehicles aren’t even a dream
OK, can someone explain to me why Apple can’t partner with the auto brands and come up with something new I really like Apple CarPlay
You should really check out All Future Podcast. We talk about it over there.
The fact that Elon has no clue on whats going on in Tesla tells me he is not running the company anymore.
And by looking at how much time he spends on X its really not hard to believe.
He should get thrown out of Tesla. He is the companys biggest liability
Tesla is a big company. The fact that Elon isn't across these things just demonstrates that he's not a micromanager.
CEO let those manage so their stuff , if anything that those managers did were not acceptable by the CEO, CEO will just intervene..you aspect CEO to run everything? Like that shouldn't apple and Google CEO resign immediately for failing so many projects.
@@sjwright2 Not a micromanager except he unilaterally axes the program once he finds out about it.
@@jful Probably because programs like this Costco one is incredibly stupid, because it's unnecessary and makes Tesla look downmarket and desperate. I think Musk makes a lot of wrong calls but I don't think this is one of them.
Original investment hype was due to working fsd ,unfortunately decade later still not a completed nhsta approved software .and it seems tesla will not be able to produce 25k car hoping self driving will eventually work. This focus has allowed other eves to catch up in shear production.
in taiwan tesla can go to tesco and carrefour as they are more popular there than costco
self-driving is bs.. It is not wanted by the majority of car buyers.. its just for techies..
“Lucid has an eight year lead in technology.” Lucid also has an eight year salary price tag. When they make a $35-40k car then I will car about their silly ramblings
They can with losing 100k per car 😂.. lucid is 2 late..byd is already filling up what left of Tesla market shares , n lucid can't compete high end market with Porsche.
I suspect AI is going to be what I call "What balance of ability" do you want.
That is to say when a system reaches it's optimum, it can be pushed to improve one aspect only for other aspects to decrease.
For example a motor can be made to rev faster, but at the expense of reliability, increasing machining tolerances will increase reliability at the expense of cost of production which in turn means less materials.
I suspect AI FSD can be improved to make more trips that do not need intervention but at the expense of the very rare but very bad accident. Sort of a diminishing returns situation. One of those Sunk Costs situations.
Needs to get robots on the side of road picking trash,,seeing you need to have excellent balance and this labor can be a great start to have safe pick up with cameras catching offenders with no fear
When Elon goes hard right, he throws away a lot of future Tesla sales. For example, my wife would not allow me to get one in the future no matter what!
9:23 Lies. They are comparing pears and apples. People engage autopilot on highways or safe and simple roads. But accidents happen the most in other environments...
They should compare to the same roads and time of day...
Tesla's the best electric car in the world. Because of Elon half the people in the country wouldn't buy it even if it could fly. Ironically he said people would boycott Disney because of their position.
Musk is the reason sales are flagging at Tesla. I would never buy one as long as he is in charge.
There was only one Moses AND one ARCH. Why?
Buying a Tesla means supporting Elon Musk and his new besty Don 😢
Elon continues to alienate his customer base. He’s gotta go.
I agree with you on people in company leadership to not be alienating customers with politics .. however, this current administration hasn’t been very warm to Tesla. Might have pissed him off?
what are you smoking
@@MitoRoshi3586 Reality weed !
I ride bicycle going to wear a stop sign shirt to mess with self driving
It is SO basic that if Tesla would just make ads that point out all the benefits of Evs, and Teslas in particular, they would sell themselves. The majority of people are completely ignorant about Evs. All they know is that they run out of charge and catch on fire. I know this because that was me 9 months ago. And then I started watching YT videos and was blown away by what Evs actually are. If people knew about the actual benefits and true statistics, they would buy Evs. (I did.)
Elon Musk's mental health is questionable at best.
anytime someone speaks their mind people label them crazy. It’s boring
Have you listened to any of his conversations or are you just formulating this opinion based on what the news is saying about him.
Also very smart people usually seem to have questionable mental health to normal people. Look at Neil Tyson or Einstein just to name 2.
Look at Biden 😂 he is still the USA president..his mental health is .... excellent and fit. 😂😂😂😂
And those spending precious lifetime making videos like this are mentally sound? 😂
By lumping autopilot and FSD data together in the safety stats, it is very difficult to evaluate how much these feature improve safety for the simple reason that people using only autopilot will primary use this on freeways and highways when there is not a lot lane changing, etc. going on. This mode of travel is easily the safest compared to congested and neighborhood roads, and could account for most of the improved safety stats. A proper safety study should be apples-to-apples, i.e. the same roads and conditions mile-for-mile. I believe Tesla has this data, and the fact that they don't break it out and analyze it in this way make me suspicious that the safety improvement of autopilot and fsd is not nearly as good as they are representing.
Still waiting for Model Y Juniper with Adjustable Air Suspension and 0.99%
Hehe I guess it will launch in china end of this year , but don't think air suspension will be introduced..it will be a good to have option .
Since everyone here is smarter and more productive than Elon. He should get on here and take notes and do everything they say. lol.
I am by no means a fan of Elon's politics, but it is my doubt into his competence and impulse control that dissuades my engagement.

Thank you for the video! Tesla/Costco/Taiwan - crazy.
Elon Musk is a brilliant innovator. The very idea that Tesla and SpaceX both survived startup and are thriving is remarkable. Unfortunately, his talent for running those companies is minimal at best. I don't think it is an exaggeration to say that if he doesn't move away from Tesla, sooner or later he will run it into the ground. He is the sole reason Tesla's efforts are concentrated on a "robo taxi" rather than a reasonably priced, entry level vehicle that would appeal to a majority of prospective EV buyers.
Ryan can you do a video on the model Y and 3 AC smelling? How to correct this etc
I haven’t experienced this to be honest.
Wow I have a 2022 model Y and definitely have this problem. I live in Florida maybe that is the difference?
They should just keep that 1.99% APR for financing a Tesla and sells will go up. I will be in the market to buy a car soon and if I get a chance to use that promotion than I'll buy a Tesla, if not then I'll just buy a RAV4 Prime.

Why cancel that Costco deal when there was no discount offered, only some free miles. He could have said free charging limited to first year or 6 months. It brings people into the Tesla ecosystem. Not sure what Elon wants to do. He should fire himself.
He basically made a deal with large investment firms. He will run the company like mary barra runs gm in exchange for their backing in quarterly votes. The most important voted was his massive free stock award. Tesla used to let engineering guide them, not mbas will guide them into layoffs for no reason and dividends. Do not be surprised when tesla announced a dividend.
Elon is cashing out to funnel money and resources into twitter. He is currently being sued by tesla shareholders for transferring AI tech and tesla employees to twitter so he could control the tech personally. He intends to sell AI services based on tesla knowledge back to tesla. Spacex and tesla currently advertise on X which is nothing more than a transfer of cash from those companies to X. Advertisements for electric cars make no sense on a right wing platform. Musk almost got banned from being CEO of tesla over a pointless tweet years ago. Somehow the SEC is ignoring all these shareholder lawsuits that musk is losing and not regulating like they should be.
Elon is in fact running the company. He’s running it straight into the ground. It’s a the company that wrote the three-part master plan suddenly decided they were so anti woke They don’t believe what they wrote. Elon has lost the bubble he needs to go or the company is doomed. I love my car, but I’ll never buy another one while he owns the company.
I have a suspicion that it could be political. Tesla and Elon are heavily dependent and aligned with the PRC, so anything Taiwan related could be affected in ways we simply would not be able to imagine. It doesn’t make sense because it’s not supposed to when things are not transparent and a CEO undermines his own professionals.
Elon's time has run it's course at Tesla, he needs to go
He has the full confidence from shareholders. Nobody is buying this bs.

Why people still have faith in Tesla is a mystery to me...
The Costco channel brings some of the highest income households into the mix and people that will most likely be willing to pay for FSD.
Elon is killing Tesla unfortunately. It will eventually go the way of my pillow.
