Just on mobile now so can’t read it all, but it did get the gist across, thanks! I hadnt seen that yet.
I still think they’d have to win a lawsuit against California saying California can’t have the program?
Edit: as in I don’t think they can just scrap it like he’s scrapping other things via executive order.
When you know you’re going to get a billion dollars in credits for something, you plan your business around having those billion credits.
You sell cars cheaper, you expand faster, you try new ideas you might not have tried etc.
Tesla hasn’t needed those credits for a very long time now, but if they are there, of course they’re going to take as full advantage of the situation as they can.
If the credits had stopped around when Tesla didn’t need them anymore, I’m sure they would look very different than today, but they’d still be around and profitable.
Source on the killing of credits?
Those are California ZEV credits, and other similar non USA programs.
They’re going to kill a lot of other things, but haven’t heard about that yet.
aims to grow automotive sales by more than 60% in 2025.
I think this is being reported incorrectly in a lot of places.
They said the new vehicles they’re launching in H1 2025 will allow them to grow 60% to the 3 million capacity they have.
They did not say in 2025, but it looked like it could be interpreted as 2025 without saying it.
I thought the US FAB was also going to be a generation behind?

I read that as feces and got confused why it was pretty and all lol
That’s from 2022. They made no such guidance for 2025 as I stated. I stand by statement that I believe people are misinterpreting what was written and it was not about 2025, simply where the new vehicles will get them at some undefined point in the future.
