This is what innovation is all about. Wow.
Tesla stock will hit $500 per share by year end.

So many envious whiners here!
Elon didn't develop this to sell cars... he's working to colonize Mars. Self driving electric vehicles that can right themselves are part of that - along with the AI, tunneling machines, solar panels, batteries etc.
I don't know if that will ever come to be, but he's working on issues for all of humanity, and you're on a layoff site for a mid car maker complaining about him. LOL
PS - the demo was an awesome publicity stunt too
Yes Tesla is innovative but this is an example of innovation that no one wants or needs
This goes to show Ford and GM engineers are clueless. They would wait a few years and try to copy what Tesla have designed. The engineers at Ford will hire contract or agency engineers to replicate Tesla engineering. 😃
so tell me @OP , how many of that sh-t are they going to sell? Each Silicon Valley billionaire will buy one, collectors , 500 units? and yes, the thruster edition won't be street legal.
Yeah, that presentation was totally not a tub of sh-t to prop up the stock. How naive are people to believe that charlatan's antics?
@b3 that called an airplane, you can easily buy one for the price of that car. I wonder how many takes it took to record that sequence.
@b4 That's laughable coming from Elon, one of the most racist people in the country. He removed most, if not all the safeguards from X so the racists could come out of from under their rocks.
@b3 And Ford leadership wants autonomous vehicles so, and this is not a direct quote, to be able to work in the vehicle on the drive to and from work. WFH solves being on the road using autonomous vehicles....
@b1 Not really, I mean, think of it, everyone's been dead set on autonomous vehicles, imagine how much easier that is when you don't depend on roads. Drone technology is rapidly advancing, and the carry weight and cost is coming down like no other.
I've said this a long time ago when Ford first said they would have a fully autonomous vehicle by 2019/2020, it would be easier to make a flying car that's fully autonomous.
this is a gimmick, not innovation,
Roadster Lol......
Fathom is leaps and bounds above, in all relevant metrics - including tech........
@Op I can't tell if your post is sarcasm or you're a Melon Mush taint li---r.
FOMOCO dog and pony shows consisted of a non drivable prototypes on a turntable in the Rotunda or the courtyard. The Roadster reveal was also a dog and pony, but you should appreciate the Engineering and Physics involved in integrating rocket thrusters into a drivable vehicle. What other OEM is capable of that?
Just like the cyberyuck was innovative? Looks like a 5 year old designed it and its sales are in the toilet.
Yup, marketing here is too busy playing smear the qu--r to come up with something like this.
