Tesla Master Plan, Part Deux!!!

in #cars8 years ago (edited)

I'm not fishing for upvotes on this one, I just want to share the good news! :D

Elon Musk's Master Plan just got updated, and it's awesome! The only missing thing is sweet electric bicycles, but the steadily declining prices of electric batteries from his giga-factory should take care of that. Hurray!

This part is my favorite: You will also be able to add your car to the Tesla shared fleet just by tapping a button on the Tesla phone app and have it generate income for you while you're at work or on vacation, significantly offsetting and at times potentially exceeding the monthly loan or lease cost. This dramatically lowers the true cost of ownership to the point where almost anyone could own a Tesla. Since most cars are only in use by their owner for 5% to 10% of the day, the fundamental economic utility of a true self-driving car is likely to be several times that of a car which is not.

And for you TL/DRers out there, he's his summary:

So, in short, Master Plan, Part Deux is:

Create stunning solar roofs with seamlessly integrated battery storage
Expand the electric vehicle product line to address all major segments
Develop a self-driving capability that is 10X safer than manual via massive fleet learning
Enable your car to make money for you when you aren't using it
