🪦 Tesla is committing automotive suicide | Electrek

「 In a single call, Tesla announced it’s killing the Model S and Model X, has no plans for new mass-market models, and is pivoting entirely to “transportation as a service.” The company that revolutionized the auto industry is walking away from it, not because it failed, but because Elon Musk got bored and found new toys 」

「 And then came the killing blow: Model S and Model X production ends next quarter. The Fremont line will be converted to manufacture Optimus robots instead.

Finally, in its latest 10k SEC filing, Tesla officially updated its mission to “building a world of amazing abundance” – whatever that means 」

@jbz that's plain stupid.

Stock value did drop a bit but fanboys will keep it at a high value regardless of what happens.

Stock price did drop from 450'sh to around 420.
