Let’s talk about something with a little more visibility: 2025.It sounds like you are actually agreeing with me!
I agree once the Gen3 line is built in Austin and ironed out, they can then "copy & paste" the line design in Mexico and any other future factories. However, that takes time to implement, and with these delays now I do not think there is enough time between now and 2030 to ramp total production to 20 million by then. I think something more like 13-15 million production by 2030 is far more likely, with 20 million happening a few years afterwards.
I see max auto production around 2.5 million, maybe 2.7. Where would the additional production come from? Mexico will not be ramping until 2026. EM flat out told us we are stalling on the factory. He would like rates to come down first which makes no sense because one of the answers to high rates would be the cheaper model out of Mexico.
