Tesla took 15 years and $20 billion funding to reach where it is today one similarity you can borrow from smartphones is that whoever is going to compete against Tesla will be a new entrant..most of all the legacy automakers will shut shop like all legacy smartphone makers like Nokia, Blackberry, Motorola Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it’s not an apples to apples comparison. Making cars is much more difficult than making a smart phone. Plus, Tesla is much ahead of it’s competitors.

Android_Halwa Posted February 18, 2020 Report Share Posted February 18, 2020 Tesla has practically started from the scratch, they have invested a lot in time, research, vision, infrastructure etc. For a competitor, say Ford Mustang, they don't need as much money as Tesla needed to roll out a Model 3 competitor...hence a lower pricing will be a practical advantage for Ford over Tesla.. Average revenue per million invested will be very low for Tesla. They may be futuristic, advance, extra ordinary and out of the world, but eventually everything comes down to the balance sheet.

Android_Halwa Posted February 18, 2020 Report Share Posted February 18, 2020 VW, FIAT are also betting big on EV's and not just domestic cars but public transport systems too. Tesla will have a honey moon period, before they start facing competition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Average revenue per million invested will be very low for Tesla. They may be futuristic, advance, extra ordinary and out of the world, but eventually everything comes down to the balance sheet. tesla makes very efficient motors, Tesla Model Y Standard Range undercuts the Mach-E Premium RWD by some $10,000, all while offering similar features and the exact same claimed EPA range because it has a smaller 54 kWh battery versus the Ford’s 75.7 kWh pack that offers the same range. less weight and advanced motors helps tesla. additional 20 kwh costs few thousand dollars charging network, self driving, fast charging are other factors. traditional auto makers will never be able to compete for that reason. ford will be losing $10 per vehicle sold just to compete on pricing. on a avg every auto maker has a $850 marketing expense on every vehicle sold and tesla doesn’t advertise. all the traditional auto makers cannot sell cars directly to customers like tesla and they have to forego 5-8% commission to the dealerships. one is technology and other is business model that will not help traditional auto makers to be competitive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndhraneedSCS Posted February 19, 2020 Report Share Posted February 19, 2020 One Tesla has capacity to make 10M cars in a year like other automakers, may be they will be able to get the price even lower. Long way to go there though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
