I have a model Y. When I went to the dealership (3 days after ordering it using the Tesla app) the car was already waiting for us. In less than five minutes the salesman gave us the key card. I have a background in automotive body repair, sales and mechanics. I walked around the car and checked it, and to end, top to bottom and check the alignment and fitment of all the body panels,, etc. I found absolutely no flaws whatsoever. I saw that the factory that built it was in Texas. We purchased the dual motor, long range; with the more expensive pearl white paint, and the seven row seats. We’ve had them vehicle now for a few weeks, and my opinion of it is that it is absolutely amazing in every way!

"Body in white" just refers to the car primarily before there are any cosmetics such as carpet, seats etc in the car. The term comes from when the car is coated in primer, which is white. So it can really refer to any part of the process from the whole frame assembly up to when it is being installed with all the interior pieces.

[@empowl1607]

White body is an unpainted car, like a white canvas. The surfacer (primer) can be all sorts of colours, even white cars usually use an offwhite surfacer.

[@ericblanchard5873]

Elon said he's not going to make the smaller cheaper compact car for under $25k a year or 2 ago in his quarterly review. He said this because it will not help his company but hurt it. By the time there is tesla Taxi's that perfectly drive themselves, there will be no point in making the smaller compact car, or even any other vehicle except the semi. Even though he did mentioned again that a team was again working on the smaller car and it may be possibly available to pre-order in 2025, the only way this will happen is if he makes new giga factories so he has the room to create more and new types of vehicles, and will only happen if the Autonomous driving isn't completely ready and still has too many bugs to work out or the government will not let fully driverless Autonomous vehicles drive themselves everywhere yet by around 2025-2027. Then possibly they will introduce a newer vehicle to the mix. It costs the company too much to add a new vehicle to the line up. Even if this happens, it will most likely cost over $30,000. And with the economy going in the wrong direction, it doesn't look bright for the new compact under $25k car. But who knows right, we all know Elon's timelines are overreaching and usually happens 3 years after the date to expect this exciting new vehicle, just like the Cybertruck or Tesla Semi. I myself am highly invested in Tesla, and only hope the company well. Tesla started this Electric revolution with super quality drive trains, I hope it continues to Dominate in the distant future and also on the Moon, Mars and beyond.

[@stratdoc]

Elon is perceived by many to an out of touch douché bag. In my circle of family and friends 4 cars that were going Tesla’s way are lost. Whether this plays to the bottom line and your investment remains to be seen. I love my Y that was built in Austin late summer. Elon needs to understand that his success has been subsidized by policy only supported because enough people in our democracy continue to vote for democrats. His “vote R up and down the ticket” is an insane statement in todays MAGA climate denial conspiracy theory ridden party that have fought against EV and solar for 50 years. Carter put solar panels on the White House and planned investment green tech. Reagan shut it down. Fully industry supported policy of decreasing fleet MPG were reversed by Trump. The guy needs to understand he can truly hurt his companies. I sold Tesla at 300 and not sure when I might buy back in. Muzzling Elon a bit is going to have to follow his preposterous failure at Twitter. I am strongly supportive of the EV competition at this point. My second EV WILL NOT BE A TESLA.

@Yvon Q. hydrogen cars won't be a huge thing any time soon, sorry, too expensive to create it, it would cost too much to have hydrogen stations everywhere. Electric cars are the future for the next 100+ years, every 5 to 10 years we'll figure out a safer more energy dense battery to mass create after extensive testing. This is the future for vehicles...period. I wouldn't want a vehicle full of hydrogen in an accident, huge explosion possible, electric cars have slower burn times for damaged batteries, you can safely exit your vehicle way before it catches you on fire. Plus, I like the idea of free overnight slow charging my car with my solar/battery storage system much better than looking for a hydrogen station that won't exist everywhere in probably.....never, maybe moon base?

[@Ritalie]

I'm not sure if I'll ever own a new electric car. I would buy one immedietely if they did not use dangerous lithium batteries, and forced WiFi technology. I can't understand why an electric car, also has to be a computer operating system, with auto-updates turned on. We all know how annoying auto updates. Updates are not something you should force on someone, because ultimately it means that the person does not actually own the product. A product that you own, should not be allowed to be tampered with, and there should not be the ability for someone with WiFi to push a button and destroy your operating system on your vehicle. I could be confused, but my understanding is that Tesla basically forces people to update their car's computer system constantly, with regular updates. I don't think you are even legally allowed to opt out of this. That means, they could limit your range, or shut down your car while you're in bed sleeping, through your WiFi connection. It's not right, it's wrong on principle. I hope that they build electric cars in the future that are more simple. For example, a 1993 Tercel. They need to make an electric equivalent to that, without a fancy touch screen computer or digital gauges, etc. This would bring the cost way, way down. Ultimately I think an EV conversion might be the chepeast option here in the future, as the cost of used parts is going to be so low, it will be almost free to get used motors and batteries? I suspect that at some point, you'll be able to do an electric conversion on an old vehicle for a fraction of the cost of a new EV. When battery technology is sufficient, you'll be able to replace the gasoline tank on a car with a battery pack, to get the same amount of range as the gasoline car.

[@Oneness100]

@@jaredscott4829 no one is claiming to make a car end-to-end in 30s or 45s. Their exit rate (throughput), the rate at which cars come off the line, is what is being discussed here. This is a lean six sigma term. What others are talking about would be called in lean terms the Process Cycle Time. These two terms are related through a formula that also accounts for the number of things currently in the process, or Work In Process. PCT = WIP / Exit Rate. All the efficiencies you hear about that Tesla is making helps to ensure they have no bottle necks so their exit rate = their start rate. If they can increase their exit rate (and start rate) while maintaining their WIP, their process cycle time will go down - more cars delivered to customers in same amount of time.

02:55 white color is not the easiest and cheapest on Tesla, it’s a multy coat white pearl, it’s a free to customer and more expensive than non multi coat colors for Tesla

[@PMitchell106]

It's more expensive in terms of processes and materials to put on the car compared to black, blue, and midnight silver, but the relatively few customer complaints about the condition of the white paint on delivery makes it the cheapest overall, as each customer-rejected car costs a lot more in terms of Tesla employee time. White simply hides defects a lot better than darker colors, which Tesla quickly quantified and addressed based on data they collected from initially offering black as the cheapest color. Currently, the no-cost option for customers is midnight silver metallic (MSM), because it is still relatively low in customer complaints compared to black or blue, it's cheaper than red or white to apply, and it will hopefully diversify the fleet of Teslas on the road, as white was becoming unbearably ubiquitous.

[@CyanOgilvie]

It's a transposition of a familiar idea from software engineering (a lot of Musk's thinking comes from his background as a dev from what I can see): where there is no code there are no bugs. Obviously this doesn't mean no code at all, but that, if a requirement can be met with no part / code / process, then the payoff in terms of complexity, reliability and cost is significant. Seems obvious but the natural tendency when working on a large project with many teams is to accumulate phantom requirements which don't stem from the target system's goal itself but the interoperability between the teams and siloing of optimisation within each team. So he stresses first widening the scope of optimisation to the requirement space ("the requirements are stupid, question them"), and then refactoring the design with the goal of eliminating complexity that wasn't actually required for the system goal ("the best part is no part"), and only then optimising the remaining parts / processes, otherwise a lot of energy is spent for marginal gains on a part that shouldn't exist in the first place.

Yup and Toyota 'makes' a car every 3 seconds but Tesla boys won't wanna hear that

Funniest thing I've seen in a while. Here in Colorado, the Interstate that runs from Denver to Grand Junction (and beyond) frequently is shut down due to vehicle accidents, land slides, or snow/ice conditions. The other morning the Interstate had been closed for quite some time due to multiple accidents during a snowstorm. All the Tesla chargers were filled up at multiple locations since it being well below freezing, the cars apparently had to stay charged to be able to run their heaters. It looked so much like bunches of livestock lined up feeding. Don't know what happened to folks that came up hoping to use a charger only to find them all filled.

These vehicles are not really appropriate for people going long distances especially in extremely cold climates. They are good daily commuters perhaps. If I ever got a Cyber Truck my first accessory would be a gas generator capable of 240V that I would store in the bed under a cover.

[@waynerussell6401]

Tesla heat-pumps can keep interiors at 65 degrees for almost two days, losing an average of 2.2 percent of its charge per hour. The Tesla app shows how many stalls are occupied before you arrive. Tesla can do 1000km in under 10 hours with normal safety breaks. Loses ~ 15% range in below zero conditions - about the same as ICE do. In the Norwegian Automobile Federation's annual EV range test, the Tesla Model S lasted for 329 miles in freezing temperatures ~ 19% loss. Another FUD busted....

Although from a manufacturing and production perspective Tesla’s approach w/ the Giga Press for quick automation is certainly a marvel, for the consumer end it’s not as great (quite frankly pretty bad) because it makes maintenance all that more expensive. Less parts => bigger parts that need to be replaced when damaged => more money from the consumer

[@trnlft]

It doesn't get replaced. Car get's scrapped.

[@6torthor]

[@UniqueHumanThing]

It’s safer a car that is in an accident that is capable of damaging the frame is going to get repaired by first pulling the frame back in place using chains then cutting and welding a new piece on the frame the frame loses a lot of life in this process and it will never be the same in another accident

[@gringoviejo1935]

seems rather than selling a lower-cost ev, a bigger focus on building specialized robotaxis at a higher quantity would be even more sustainable/profitable.

[@gringoviejo1935]

perhaps a van based on the cybertruck drivetrain?

[@daemenoth]

nah if they can mass produce a smaller more affordable car that opens them up to a massive market of people who want EV's but can't afford one. Not to mention the size of the car allows a much smaller production line footprint in their factory and less time to produce the full vehicle start to finish. The change is likely do to the much more massive demand due to rising gas costs and the multitude of people stuck with the poor investment of gas guzzlers because they can't afford to make the switch.

[@iandavies4853]

Exactly. Even better if taxis made to last, for refurbishment to be easy. ICE vehicles, steel shells just don’t last, are designed to be redundant, need parts. Small, low purchase cost are even worse, don’t save on running costs.

Tesla "PRODUCES" a car from their factory every 30 seconds. It takes longer than that to "BUILD" a Tesla. This assembly process is tribute to the Engineers, R&D and factory workers, not just Elon. He was involved in the money but the hard work was done by others, so lets not put him on a pedestal. Tesla would be nowhere near where they are if it wwasn't for the sweat and tears of many, many people.

In the lutherie business (violin maker), a violin "in the white" is fully constructed but lacking in the finishing varnish, often called a "white violin". Perhaps the auto industry or at Tesla borrowed the phrase from the lutherie business. It has nothing to do with being painted white.

[@larryparrish7780]

White metal is a blanket term used to refer to any combination of alloys that consist of non-precious metals. They are also sometimes known as pot metal. Thus this white metal being assembled would be refereed to as body in white.

[@barnabyallen5796]

At a rate of 1 car per 30 seconds, that equates to just over 1 million cars per year. For just one factory, that is mighty impressive.

[@peteruk8925]

Takt time. The theoretical time at which a producer must produce a piece of product ordered by a customer. Takt time is calculated by dividing the net available production time by the number of units required during that time.

[@tomshady3530]

30 seconds? With their build quality, that sounds about right. Say, aren't even the best chinese electric vehicles known for bursting into flame? Most expensive and quick matches ever made.

In the past white was the most expensive color. Also white has special coating just like red. Are you sure white is the easiest the produce? My M3 from 2019 had the most expensive white color and black was the base color. During 2019 they changed this with white becoming the base color and the started charging extra for black.

[@PMitchell106]

The video is simply wrong here. White became the no-cost color option for several years mostly because it hides defects better than any other color offered. It is a multi-coat so it's more expensive in terms of processes and materials to put on the car compared to black, blue, and midnight silver, but the relatively few customer complaints about the condition of the paint on delivery makes it the cheapest overall, as each customer-rejected car costs a lot more in terms of Tesla employee time. Currently the no-cost option is midnight silver metallic (MSM), because it is still relatively low in customer complaints compared to black or blue, it's cheaper than red or white to apply, and it will hopefully diversify the fleet of Teslas on the road, as white was becoming unbearably ubiquitous.

[@peteandtessTube]

This video is selling me a Tesla. 1. Electric 2. Emphasis on Efficiency 3. Robotics 4. Reduce moving parts 5. Reproduce the models that work and do not make meaningless cosmetic changes every year… I’m starting to see a car as an appliance. The main purpose of any appliance is that it works efficiently and reliably for a long time. Whereas style has some importance it should not be the driving force for model changes every year. I might just buy a Tesla because it meets those criteria.
