2022 They ░░░░░░░░ no new model productions ░░░░░░░░ 2022 unfortunately so presumably ░░░░░░░░ year we ll see ░░░░░░░░ we re looking thing ░░░░░░░░ I do have a ░░░░░░░░ to see on stage ░░░░░░░░ looks as we re ░░░░░░░░ person as it does ░░░░░░░░ line on the Tesla ░░░░░░░░ blew everyone away the ░░░░░░░░ surprising thing about their ░░░░░░░░ call was their gross ░░░░░░░░ and vehicles is over ░░░░░░░░ which is not see ░░░░░░░░ well over the average ░░░░░░░░ What s your expectation ░░░░░░░░ the year ahead is ░░░░░░░░ to look like through ░░░░░░░░ lens of the many ░░░░░░░░ investors you know the ░░░░░░░░ has faced criticism and ░░░░░░░░ a lot of questions ░░░░░░░░ regards to the stock ░░░░░░░░ but if your investor ░░░░░░░░ John what would you ░░░░░░░░ want that investor to ░░░░░░░░ So it s tough ░░░░░░░░ be a test and ░░░░░░░░ to the institutional investor ░░░░░░░░ talking to the guy ░░░░░░░░ red it you know ░░░░░░░░ to buy shares and ░░░░░░░░ t point to talk ░░░░░░░░ 2 very sad britt ░░░░░░░░ there when it comes ░░░░░░░░ Tesla stay the course ░░░░░░░░ are very much a ░░░░░░░░ company as they are ░░░░░░░░ a motive and a ░░░░░░░░ company and their software ░░░░░░░░ second to 9 they ░░░░░░░░ got on out 600 ░░░░░░░░ 1000 cars on the ░░░░░░░░ using Tesla s full ░░░░░░░░ driving software that s ░░░░░░░░ to be a another ░░░░░░░░ stream once that final ░░░░░░░░ gets released I m ░░░░░░░░ extremely bullish on Tesla ░░░░░░░░ are still clearly beating ░░░░░░░░ Despite now an onslaught ░░░░░░░░ competition is coming from ░░░░░░░░ and the low Okay ░░░░░░░░ let s talk about ░░░░░░░░ competent on your team ░░░░░░░░ a question the question ░░░░░░░░ love what does that ░░░░░░░░ look like who is ░░░░░░░░ coming from what s ░░░░░░░░ for people that have ░░░░░░░░ yeah kind of over ░░░░░░░░ on the Tesla conversations ░░░░░░░░ few years like please ░░░░░░░░ the love of god ░░░░░░░░ news about someone else ░░░░░░░░ the space I mean ░░░░░░░░ let s start the ░░░░░░░░ right Let s start ░░░░░░░░ the luxury with the ░░░░░░░░ there So their CEO ░░░░░░░░ Peter on think he ░░░░░░░░ getting and you ask ░░░░░░░░ of the lead engineers ░░░░░░░░ the model s project ░░░░░░░░ there Lisa there you ░░░░░░░░ get a version that ░░░░░░░░ 500 miles of range ░░░░░░░░ you re to 60 ░░░░░░░░ 2 and a half ░░░░░░░░ Now certainly the starting ░░░░░░░░ of about a 142 ░░░░░░░░ 000 for the top ░░░░░░░░ are not cheap but ░░░░░░░░ is competing with the ░░░░░░░░ s class since it ░░░░░░░░ actually above the model ░░░░░░░░ o Tesla getting hit ░░░░░░░░ the top and taking ░░░░░░░░ mercedes you ve got ░░░░░░░░ eqs it just came ░░░░░░░░ towards the end of ░░░░░░░░ year it s electric ░░░░░░░░ class they re not ░░░░░░░░ on range and probably ░░░░░░░░ thin and you ask ░░░░░░░░ it is another option ░░░░░░░░ there being tested marking ░░░░░░░░ trucks you ve got ░░░░░░░░ and with their r ░░░░░░░░ t ford it was ░░░░░░░░ the lightning this year ░░░░░░░░ Motors announced 2 new ░░░░░░░░ truck The hummer is ░░░░░░░░ John and beast of ░░░░░░░░ thing Or start deliveries ░░░░░░░░ the end of last ░░░░░░░░ a bmw as cars ░░░░░░░░ out with their eye ░░░░░░░░ now the laurens you ░░░░░░░░ pick a company and ░░░░░░░░ ve got a competitor ░░░░░░░░ the looks like and ░░░░░░░░ for the hyundai on ░░░░░░░░ The key 86 to ░░░░░░░░ a few Unless you ░░░░░░░░ to go in a ░░░░░░░░ tree you really need ░░░░░░░░ supercharger network a charge ░░░░░░░░ you can charge it ░░░░░░░░ compelling reasons to have ░░░░░░░░ go Tesla are getting ░░░░░░░░ and smaller Quarterback work ░░░░░░░░ so Yeah I mean ░░░░░░░░ that seems to be ░░░░░░░░ the isn t necessarily ░░░░░░░░ is the top dog ░░░░░░░░ just you just did ░░░░░░░░ a great job laying ░░░░░░░░ all her senior year ░░░░░░░░ can I mean advantages ░░░░░░░░ for this about a ░░░░░░░░ with me for a ░░░░░░░░ luxury specifically for second ░░░░░░░░ Tesla even look to ░░░░░░░░ of compete But the ░░░░░░░░ in terms of luxury ░░░░░░░░ a Tesla just trying ░░░░░░░░ find its own lane ░░░░░░░░ to speak I think ░░░░░░░░ re testing those everybody ░░░░░░░░ follows I think with ░░░░░░░░ turn to left everybody ░░░░░░░░ to be heard in ░░░░░░░░ way in but I ░░░░░░░░ sure you set the ░░░░░░░░ there are a lot ░░░░░░░░ things luxury they are ░░░░░░░░ you know they re ░░░░░░░░ fast The technology is ░░░░░░░░ but you re not ░░░░░░░░ to confuse the model ░░░░░░░░ that class So there ░░░░░░░░ a customer who wants ░░░░░░░░ electric version the s ░░░░░░░░ but doesn t want ░░░░░░░░ of quality control issues ░░░░░░░░ some teslas are known ░░░░░░░░ they have that option ░░░░░░░░ there not be forced ░░░░░░░░ have to go get ░░░░░░░░ my last because I ░░░░░░░░ to go electric and ░░░░░░░░ s all there is ░░░░░░░░ choices now and they ░░░░░░░░ not just average choices ░░░░░░░░ re really compelling options ░░░░░░░░ s talk politics Why ░░░░░░░░ you here obviously the ░░░░░░░░ Build Back Better plan ░░░░░░░░ is very much stalled ░░░░░░░░ nowhere fast down in ░░░░░░░░ but President Biden has ░░░░░░░░ he wants to see ░░░░░░░░ the new U S ░░░░░░░░ vehicles be either electric ░░░░░░░░ plug in electric hybrid ░░░░░░░░ the year 2030 What ░░░░░░░░ terms of federal policy ░░░░░░░░ even prefer ozil s ░░░░░░░░ do you most closely ░░░░░░░░ this space So first ░░░░░░░░ I want to see ░░░░░░░░ you missed ration is ░░░░░░░░ that Tesla exists as ░░░░░░░░ it keeps trying out ░░░░░░░░ Motors as a leader ░░░░░░░░ believe General Motors sold ░░░░░░░░ the 20 s evie ░░░░░░░░ in q 4 and ░░░░░░░░ mean 20 or less ░░░░░░░░ q 4 of 2021 ░░░░░░░░ as Tesla as you ░░░░░░░░ deliver 305 000 so ░░░░░░░░ view of the marketplace ░░░░░░░░ then be a welcome ░░░░░░░░ the administration You know ░░░░░░░░ their you know frequently ░░░░░░░░ much about the intersection ░░░░░░░░ Elon Musk and Joe ░░░░░░░░ but Musk was pretty ░░░░░░░░ given the early year ░░░░░░░░ the Trump Administration center ░░░░░░░░ a visor eap and ░░░░░░░░ s there are several ░░░░░░░░ back and forth all ░░░░░░░░ we ll follow the ░░░░░░░░ very closely John welcome ░░░░░░░░ on the show anytime ░░░░░░░░ rettinger president of the ░░░░░░░░ f l network out ░░░░░░░░ for us in California ░░░░░░░░ thank you okay coming
