I guess the moral is that if you drive a Tesla, you are a bad guy.One of the bad guys in His Dark Materials also pulled up in a Model X.

No, this is fine. These are things Tesla should have been posting due to the licensing terms on open source software they are using. They are late in doing this, but many companies are. Basically Tesla is giving back to the open source community.seems like that person should not be tweeting about that?
Kind of odd when the movie got paid by Coke and Ford. The Tesla served no purpose and just looked like a product placement. Seems like Ford paid a good chunk since most the cars are Ford.
Doesn’t seem to have hurt Mercedes sales to have their cars driven by bad guys in many movies over the years.I guess the moral is that if you drive a Tesla, you are a bad guy.
Is this part of the robotaxi pick-up software being tested? Like... when an empty car pulls up, it could invite you to get in.
(The wrong people could hear it and get in. All those problems need to be ironed out)
Another way of seeing that is that the S/X customers have paid all their supercharging in advance.
They cost a bit more than TM3 giving Tesla more profit per car - and most of the cars will still charge at home. So I guess it's not a big cost for Tesla.
My old TMX has free supercharging and I live 1/2 mile from a supercharger. Still charge at home since it's more convinient. And on trips I prefer destination charging to supercharging - and also pay to use my Chademo adapter where other chargers are more conviniently located even if they are not free of charge.

First resistance stirs
Today on Jan 12th about 40 protesters gathered at the station Fangschleuse to protest against #Gigafactory4.

Not just the EU, but also cars registered anywhere in the EAA (ie: Norway and Iceland count for CO2 credits). And obviously, Iceland will be YUUGE...This means that the most probable structure of the payments is that they are tied to Tesla's EU deliveries, once the cars are registered in the EU.
Is it complete?Not sure GF3 will ever hit 10k (it's rather small) - seems to be designed for 6k. But apart from that, I like your notion
The completed footprint for GF3 is similar to Freemont but far more organized. I have no doubts they can hit 10k when the building is feature complete.Not sure GF3 will ever hit 10k (it's rather small) - seems to be designed for 6k. But apart from that, I like your notion
Yeah, I think it precisely the other way around. Diess sees the future, while the octogenarian patriarch of the Piëch family is firmly vested in the past. I don't see the owners of VWAG changing their minds before slowly fading away. Diess is frustrated, but largely has his hands tied wrt the pace of Elektromobilität.I'm sure the Porsche-Piëch family had to pressure Diess into facing the financial realities of stranded assets.
It also makes the Model S/X a better deal, because they come with "Free unlimited Supercharging".
Ford, Apple, Coke, pay mega millions to be noticed.
Tesla doesn’t, for 3 reasons:
1: Tesla is production constrained. Elon Musk likened it to running a hamburger stand where you had a long line of people waiting to buy your hamburgers. There’s no sense in waving a sign to passing cars TRY BOB’S BURGERS! You just have to focus on making great burgers as fast as you can.
2: Elon has disdain for advertising in general. Likens it to misleading people. He said Tesla might consider advertising at some point just to educate people about their cars. Didn’t seem to want to.
3: It lowers margins. Why bother paying millions for a Super Bowl ad when your customers are your personal sales force?
As to Teslas showing up in movies and TV shows and rap videos or whatever... Sounds like an artistic choice to me. But when it makes zero difference to the story what kind of computer Jeff Goldblum is using, why not sell that logo placement to the highest bidder.
One comment I see in the chain I think that could be miss leading to people not familiar with the topic:Apparently, a lot of Tesla software has been uploaded in their Github repo:

Might even remove a bit of the holier than thou image that some people complain (unfairly IMHO) Tesla owners sometimes have.
And, just wait for the Cybertruck and its movie derivatives to show up on film.
