Don't have any but maybe I should short themAnyone else considering offloading their Tesla shares after this change in strategy (as well as the decision not to build the Model 2)?
Shares haven’t dropped like I would have expected but feel it’s only time - and maybe not much time.
If his deal goes through there will be a lot of dilution, the extent of which would depend on how much of his options he exercises. He's shown he'll do this to shore up Twitter, which is losing advertisers rather than gaining them, so it's not unreasonable to imagine him continuing to use it in this fashion.Anyone else considering offloading their Tesla shares after this change in strategy (as well as the decision not to build the Model 2)?

Definitely a change in strategic direction.Anyone else considering offloading their Tesla shares after this change in strategy (as well as the decision not to build the Model 2)?

Considered? Yes. But then decided against for now.Anyone else considering offloading their Tesla shares after this change in strategy (as well as the decision not to build the Model 2)?
China alone will make sure EVs don’t go the way of diesels, not to mention other countries like Norway.All organisations have a finite amount of resource, organisational leadership dictates where that resource goes. Maintaining and delivering a world class rapid charging experience via Super Chargers was one of Tesla’s key strategies to enable/push EV sales.
No one will know the truth behind headlines but I cannot see any new SCs being built now, and when leases come up for renewal for exiting SCs, why would Tesla renew them?
Tesla is already pulling back Supercharger plans after firing team
Tesla is already pulling back Supercharger plans after Elon Musk came in like a wrecking ball and fired the whole...electrek.co
Musk has now essentially totally shifted focus and given up on public rapid charging. The SC network is now just dead man walking. Luckily its almost certain the combustion car ban in the UK will be rolled back again, and there is plenty of petrol left for everyone alive today.
EVs I suspect will go down in history much like the diesel blip.
Yeah I mean isn't the reason diesels went away is because they are more polluting not less polluting?China alone will make sure EVs don’t go the way of diesels, not to mention other countries like Norway.
In the UK diesel isn’t taxed harder than petrol. Diesel isn’t a good option because real world co2 emissions are not significantly lower than petrol, and the technology to clean up the exhaust *properly* is expensive and makes for less reliability. Add to that that we import more of our diesel than petrol => more sensitive to price shocks.Despite being sold as less polluting early on..
Governments taxed diesel so it was more expensive than petrol, introduced things like mandatory DPFs and generally made them not worth it.
Really.. Like the bit where he says there's no need for R&D because superchargers are as good as they'll ever be? What kind of engineer says that.Just watched the Munro live video, he made a lot of sense.
Just one point to remember, if musk hadn’t got rid of the team. It still wouldn’t have done anything for the problem we have in the uk when it comes to the superchargers. The dno’s that are holding up a lot of sites going live, there is 2 that I pass regularly and they have been ready for months.Really..

Munro giving us his take on recent events 'without emotions' then proceeds to get highly emotional, with a fanatical rant.
I like Munro Live.. I've been watching since the teardown of the Model Y back in the first lockdown days, but recently he seems borderline unhinged especially without Corey to rein him in.
His video gets worse the longer it goes on, towards the end he's full on Tesla fanboy and Musk groupie.Even on the /r/teslamotors subreddit they are calling Munro out for no longer being objective when it comes to critiquing Tesla. He made a bunch of money from Tesla shares and since then has given them far more latitude and benefit of the doubt in his analysis than he would and does for other companies.
Pours one out for diesel. I love dieselsChina alone will make sure EVs don’t go the way of diesels, not to mention other countries like Norway.
Then we can enjoy the rapid charging on other public chargers. Oh no wait, most of those fast chargers are 800V so much slower for 400V Tesla's. It's clear the market is going 800V, Tesla needs to make the switch as well but outside of the Cybertruck, will they? Maybe they'll add this to the Juniper Model Y but I feel like considering they seem to be putting less effort into EV's now, they are more likely to just phone in the Juniper refresh now.Still hard to reconcile sensible views.
First, I'm guessing that apart from the handful V4 superchargers that have been installed, we will never see them widely deployed.
Also, while the sizing of these SC was sufficient a couple years back, with widespread adoption and sales numbers, and the decision to open them to 3rd party, no SC team to increase the number of stalls/upgrade at existing locations means overcrowding is inevitable, and already a reality at some locations.
I am still finding myself frequently using V2 chargers. At the time we were promised they would evolve into V3 to go from 120kW to 250, and avoid sharing power between adjacent stalls. Guess this will never happen now. As said above, the SC network will now slowly die out.
He specifically said they would increase the number of chargers at existing sites. And you don't need a dedicated team to do that.no SC team to increase the number of stalls/
True. The sales staff can probably pop out when they are getting a break from test drives due to the slow sales and go pop in a Supercharger stall or two...He specifically said they would increase the number of chargers at existing sites. And you don't need a dedicated team to do that.
The dno like I said before, the superchargers come ready to plonk on the base. Tesla doesn’t get involved in the installation or wiring up.True. The sales staff can probably pop out when they are getting a break from test drives due to the slow sales and go pop in a Supercharger stall or two...
Just messing with you but who do you think can do this? Wiring in high voltage electrics is kind of a specialised, dedicated kind of job.
But who will proactively analyse the data to see which sites need expansion?The dno like I said before, the superchargers come ready to plonk on the base. Tesla doesn’t get involved in the installation or wiring up.
