Is your order for a Plaid or LR?

It's a Plaid S order.

I think the operator is testing Elon's answer about S deliveries

My current lease is up in December. I was desparately trying to find a way to get out of it early. Guess that is no longer necessary.

Someone is trying to reign Elon in...

You can't say that! You already told them they were on production...oops, live now...

Eliminating Radar....does not give me a warm fuzzy..

If I were on reddit I would be downvoted into oblivion, but it constantly amazes me that a guy this talented and esteemed is so incredibly poor at public speaking.

Looks like battery design issues?

Delivery next month. Didn't we hear that one before?

• "More challenges than expected in developing the new Model S/X" - battery pack, drive units, internal electroncs, infotainment system
• Wanted to make sure that the battery was safe
• Stacking a lot in the yard, and making refinements to the cars that we've built
• Ramping Model S production next month
• Be in high-volume production in Q3, model X production in Q3

On the call Elon said to start S production next month... and ramp up production in Q3. 2000 S / X per week, up to 2500/week if they get lucky but contingent on GSC.

"More challenges than expected in developing plaid Model S, the new version of model S/X with revised interior, battery pack, internal electronics, PS5 level entertainment system, a lot of issues encountered, took quite a bit of development and make sure the new battery is safe. Trying to get all the details settled in the cars for the past few months. Making refinements and want start delivering by probably next month. Expecting high volume model S's in Q3. As we ramp out demand for the S/X will be quite high. We're going to aim to produce 2k S/X per week. It's a great car. Cost us a little less to produce but is a superior product"

- Elon's summary

Did I hear he said they were stacking them up in the yard?

I thought he said delivery in Q3. Trying to ramp up production to 2K per week. Not good.

Yes. One on top of the other.

"Making sure the battery is safe" is an interesting comment

 

[Ribeyesteak]

Sounds like a Q3 Plaid delivery.
