Troy Teslike guides 414000 delivered in Q4 2025. Official number will be announced tomorrow I think.
Jim Fan is not one of world's top 10 most prominent AI experts. He probably doesn't make the top 1000. Just because he liked Tesla's FSD, he's automatically a leading AI expert? Bizarre
Tbh I didn't know him myself either, just copied what I saw online. But if you are the top AI man in the world's top AI hardware manufacturer, also the most valuable company in the world, surely you know a thing or two about AI? 😂
A good example of Elon time 😂
Musk predicted at the start of 2017 that by the end of that year, a Tesla should be able to drive coast to coast in the USA without interventions. Ludicrously optimistic of course, but it actually just happened. Took 2 days and 20 hours to do the 4400km trip
Knowing a thing or two about AI isn't the same as 'one of the top 10 most prominent AI experts in the world', and it's even more bizarre that you were just commenting on how some journalist is biased against Tesla yet here you are posting nonsense because you're biased toward Tesla. You can be a fan without being a fanboy and posting silly crap tbh
Nvidia aren't in the top100 (or I'd hazard, 1000) companies in terms of AI research, and developing AI hardware (which Jim Fan isn't even involved in) isn't the same as being an expert in AI. Nvidia's internal AI research has been mostly confined to chip design and generative image generation.
You saw someone post something glowingly positive about FSD and spread guff to bolster that positive opinion, right after posting 'Be very aware of anything that Electrek says about Tesla. Your man Fred Lambert used to be a Tesla fanboi but then he bought a knackered high mileage Model X that gave him a lot of trouble. Ever since, he has been a Tesla hater'.
That would equally apply to you it seems, are ye going to post a disclaimer at the bottom of every reply you post in a Tesla thread?
OK fair enough, I can't really argue with most of the points you are making. I am just an observer, not academically into the field of AI. I do own a Tesla car with FSD, but I do not consider myself a Tesla fanboi and I do not hold any TSLA shares
Are you an AI expert yourself? What is your view of a car, any car, driving coast to coast by itself, without any interventions. Surely that is some sort of achievement? Even if it technically still is L2?
Did it need a human to insert the charging cable?
…and the official numbers are in: 418k

They can only sell so many to other Musk companies and incentives are running out across the world while CO2 credits reduce.
What do you think yourself? 😂
Although Tesla and others have experimented with robotic charge points. This is from 10 years ago:
Perhaps I'm being unrealistic, but when you think about being able to do a coast to coast without any human intervention, is it very unrealistic to expect Tesla to be able to remove the human from the charging task?
I think with self driving Teslas (no humans in the car at all), we will see automated charge points rolling out. You're right that they have the expertise. I wouldn't think it's a priority and maybe we will just see some stalls starting for robo taxi use, but we will see them.
Troy Teslike says depending on China sales figures might be predicting sales under 300k in a quarter.
Tesla can’t keep being No. 1. It was always bound to drop. Where it settles, god knows.
Good man @tppytoppy - good to see a voice of reason in this thread.
Welcome to the EV forum.
Don't get him started on renewable energy...
I saw that video and I'm seeing many others rolling out similar content. It's able to do it without intervention now (which is great and a massive step forward) but it's not trusted by the OEM as hands off (ie the OEM is liable not the owner/driver/occupant). There are many other "funny" issues too like, a car doing a 300km drive between charging spots fully FSD without intervention but it parked in a "handicapped" (US vernacular) spot at the end.
It's getting a lot closer, and certainly a lot better than 3-5 years ago, despite the issues with only using cameras.
I still don't think it will be fully available as a L5 FSD no steering wheel needed by 2030 but for the first time I'd actually think it is possible in the 30's. The main objective will be narrowing the pareto to ~0 (ie better than a human), and regulatory hurdles.
The first company that properly cracks this will balloon exponentially in value. Not for the hardware but for the software and regulatory approval. Can you imagine the barrier to entry to this market now for a brand new "FSD" player?
36-36.5k was my prediction. 😇
Tesla launched the Model 3 standard in Europe today. In most countries about €3k cheaper than the Model Y standard. Not sure if the €3500 trade in bonus here is applicable?
Yes the €3500 trade in bonus is available for cash buyers. Afaik the standard has been available elsewhere (Except UK) for a while now
So about €32.8k on the road?
yes €32984 with scrappage…😊
It’s not really scrappage though is it ? I thought it was a €3500 top up on a trade in value that is usually pretty dismal. For many with something decent to trade in, you’d be better off to forget about the €3500 and sell your old car privately.
Correct.
I know it's not scrappage, that why I put a smiley for Unkel.
The €35k Tesla!!!
New showroom opening at Charlestown, Finglas. Exit 5 off the M50.
Ah I thought I saw a Tesla sign the other day near Swords too, figured I was imagining things
Kieran Campbell, its recently appointed Strategic Sales & Operations Leader in Ireland
Is this also new? Tesla now making PR announcements beyond Musks tweets ?
with its Tucson the biggest-selling model, 68 per cent of which were plug-in hybrids
Ireland's fascination with fossil-powered Tucsons continues unabated :(
For me, EV sales overtaking petrol was the most eyebrow-raising line in the article.
I have a 151 Leaf that's barely worth €3.5k. Tempting but at the same time it'd be a crying shame if they scrapped my 10 bar Tekna.
"New products in the pipeline" is less fun when you realise it's just more variants of the Model 3 and Model Y. e.g. Standard Long Range RWD Model Y already launched in Germany will presumably come here soon. I see they've tweaked the financing examples there (rates/deposits/etc) to give the same €399 repayment for the Standard Long Range RWD and Premium Long Range RWD models when the raw price difference is actually €3000.
