“Inside Tesla’s sprawling factory in Austin, Texas, known as Giga Texas, the company on Monday took a striking step to adjust to its new reality. It was the first day without a night shift for the Model Y … which effectively cut the company’s output of the vehicle in half.”
"Fun" fact: #ElonMusk's compensation plan, expected to be approved by the combination of retail shareholder enablers and the fact that many major market funds don't vote their shares, would be enough to pay 6-figure salaries to all ~14000 recently laid-off employees for 40 years.
After firing the 500-strong Supercharger team just last month, Tesla CEO Elon Musk has quickly reversed course, claiming the company is still committed to spending “well over” half a billion dollars to grow its Supercharger network, reports Futurism.
Even Musk’s most ardent supporters were shocked by his tanking of this key department — something that sets Tesla apart from many of its competitors. So has he realised his mistakes, or is he simply trying to reassure spooked investors?
NEW: Activists from across Germany & Europe are gathering in #Grünheide, near Berlin, to protest against #Tesla & support the local residents in their fight against the planned expansion of Tesla's Gigafactory. They fear deforestation & water shortage among other negative consequences for the community. Preparations have started in a self-organized camp for a long weekend of action.
It's funny how many people hate Elon Musk, and have realized that he is a massive fraudster and liar, but still believe his lies about BEVs.
Here's a hint: It's all a big lie. Including BEVs. They are a greenwashing scam and gimmicks to be sold to the rich. No different than hyperloop or whatever.
