.....but will they be able to bring it to market in any significant quantity? People that like to throw shade on Tesla ignore the fact that now only have they been building out their production, but also their supply chain. They're smart enough not to be reliant on others for their batteries. Besides, Tesla's engineering is arguably on par if not superior to that of the rest of the auto makers. They laughed at them as a foolish oddity and now they're an actual competitor. The hubris in this is funny.


I dont know about motors but they'll be building their own batteries. They will have 2 or 3 plants dedicated to battery production and have a lot of money set for developing sold state batteries, with those you'll see 1000-2000+ mile ranges, no fires and faster charge times
