Model Y Manufacturing & CAPEX Revolution?


Listen Later

New patents show the potential for a manufacturing revolution with the Model Y. First, there is a breakthrough new wiring harness, that reduces the amount of wiring from 1.5KMs (in a M3) to just 100M (in a MY). Additionally, Tesla has patented a massive new casting machine that could be utilized for Model Y body assembly. These innovations at the manufacturing level, show Tesla's industry leading pace of innovation. Both the new wiring, and casting device could lead to increased automation & substantially lower CAPEX.
