If you think that video was to be some sort of physics demonstration.. I don't know what to tell you.
His tweet was him trying to defend it. Guy even said some BS like "physics is always right" or something. LMFAO black science man called him out.

how am I underestimating it, when car companies are known to do it. how do you explain when a completely new design with completely new parts comes out, just look how many times just the corvette has been completely redesigned ('53,'63,'68,'84,'97,'05,'14,'20) each timed required the factories to be retooled, and a completely new set of parts produced from suppliers.

to make an EV the only difference is replacing the drive train. keep in mind an ICE drive-train has thousands of parts, hell just he valve-train can have a few hundred, with an EV the number of mechanical parts is drastically less.

Tesla made some notable innovations in capacitor technology.

great, he can sell em to toyota to keep his company afloat

Toyota Motors reported $272.3 billion in Total Revenues in Fiscal year 2018.
Toyota annual gross profit for 2018 was $49.413B

Tesla's revenue grew to almost 21.5 billion U.S. dollars in the fiscal year of 2018

I'm not defending Tesla. Just saying they at least did some useful stuff. But yea, imo they are a garbage company.

Where will they get the parts for an EV?

He actually makes them look like an autist because they probably have autism. I'm sure they're fantastic in their space but that's only part of being a complete person.

and? do you know many more cars toyota produces than tesla? a pretty staggering amount.

you guys fail to realize tesla has hordes of apple-level fanboys ready to throw their money in his face lol. his company is in no danger of not being afloat for the time being.

If you think building and funding a team who achieved this is something even nasa could do cost effectively you need to hit the eng textbooks.

1870 was when they did this for the first time in New York. That was not even the first subway.

People are acting like this is some sort if new idea. Jesus people are ****ing stupid.
"To be a warrior is not a simple matter of wishing to be one. It is rather an endless struggle that will go on to the very last moment of our lives. Nobody is born a warrior, in exactly the same way that nobody is born an average man. We make ourselves into one or the other."-- Carlos Castaneda

Dudes a shill. Only “rich” because of the green technology gov’t kickbacks and his dad was literally a rich emerald mine owner that Elon inherited

Pulled a page out of the stereotypical billionaire tech ceo playbook and using people much smarter to lay the groundwork for his vision lmao

How many subways can you go any route without changes, drive right to your front door, go 70mph, actually get to sit down and don't stop every 5 mins?

Miscers would be like "lol but buses" if a car was invented.

bill gates is a legit genius. dude went to harvard, won some sort of statewide math award, is published in a math journal, improved the pancake sorting algorithm....

you'd have a hard time being much smarter than bill gates.
