Jokes on him. This isn’t going to save Tesla. He’d have to get kicked out of the company permanently, and then it would be a slow climb to build back any trust.
I wouldn’t be surprised if another car company buys Tesla on the cheap at some point, and changes its name (or just adopts the branding of the buyer company).
Their development seems to be very slow and Elron can’t focus on them as a car company. And obviously, while they were expected to solve FSD before the completion, they’re not, and meanwhile focus turned to things like their stupid robot. The real models haven’t been updated in years while meanwhile they released a horrific travesty of a truck. Tesla may still have some useful technology but they’re being rapidly left behind while their CEO goes on deranged power trips with the government.
Elon focusing on them as a car company is where that horrific travesty of a truck and the stupid robot came from, not to mention the false promises of FSD. I think Tesla is better of without Elon’s focus.
The thing is recently when he thinks about Tesla, it’s stupid AI crap and things like the robot. So not only is he detracting with idiocy like the CT, but also distracting Tesla from what is supposed to be their real focus.
Useless almost-pickup-trucks and union busting?
That’s Elron’s style, too. What they should have been doing instead of the inane CT is updating their normal vehicles. They make incremental improvements but they’re looking pretty aged at this point.
I’ve never looked at them as serious vehicles because of the whole “everything is computer” thing. Touch controls for absolutely everything is insane.
Oh, it’s horrific. That’s been a bad enough trend in cars for many reasons, such as how it makes it almost impossible to adjust anything without looking at the screen, unlike physical buttons. Things like “can’t open the glove box manually” is ridiculous. Then there are also issues like the electric doors that you can’t open from the outside if the car lacks power, and how the manual releases are difficult to locate and in some models, rear doors don’t even have manual releases. The regular door operation is stupid, too. When I was in a Model 3 Uber, it wasn’t even clear to me how to open the door from the inside at first. That just scratches the surface too.
