Seems like everything Tesla announces is a vague hand wave and a "trust me" of late.

My personal feeling is that they've underestimated other manufacturer's progress and are making announcements too far ahead of their ability to deliver them just to appear like they're still competitive.

They said they're starting production within 77 days (H1 2025) and upgraded the lines to make it work while doing the model Y upgrade, so I don't think this is a not happening kinda thing, it's just a matter of what.

Like every other announcement of something that's %100$ definitely going to happen from this bloke, I'll believe it when I see it.

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me every quarter since 2016....
