To be clear, you're saying that Panasonic did not achieve 35 GWh/yr capacity by the end of March as reported and that total Model 3 production in Q1 was limited by cell availability?
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · Apr 14, 2019
There is 35 GWh/yr “theoretical capacity”, but actual max output is ~2/3. It was physically impossible to make more Model 3’s in Q1 due to cell constraints.

My car came out 2 months before the upgrade. Can it be retrofitted?
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · Apr 13, 2019
Yes, all cars with Autopilot 2.0 or higher, so ~400,000 of Tesla cars built to date

Especially for those people who drive the same route everyday and AP/FSD makes the same mistake everyday. It’d be great to review and flag errors and improve your own local drive.

Your interventions do train the NN, but we first verify that the training doesn’t cause other issues, so expect step rather than continuous changes in capability

Is that what you mean when you say that Tesla vehicles are now "appreciating assets"?

Tesla’s Full Self-Driving option might make more sense as a subscription service than as an expensive one-time purchase, especially if the Model 3 really is a million-mile car as Elon has claimed.
Elon Musk@elonmusk· Apr 13, 2019Please note that the price of the Tesla Full Self-Driving option will increase substantially over time
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · Apr 13, 2019
There will be that too, but economics will favor initial purchase

That is pretty bad for those of us who can't order Model 3 yet (Czechia, Poland, UK etc.)
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · Apr 13, 2019
Hopefully have the order page live before then. If not, will push price change out a bit later.

Tesla shares fell after Nikkei reported that Panasonic is freezing spending on more Gigafactory expansion. Panasonic said it reached 35 GWh/yr capacity in March. That's already enough to build over 500k Model 3/yr+Powerwalls—more than Tesla can handle bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · Apr 13, 2019
Incorrect. Pana cell lines at Giga are only at ~24GWh/yr & have been a constraint on Model 3 output since July. No choice but to use other suppliers for Powerwall/Powerpack cells. Tesla won’t spend money on more capacity until existing lines get closer to 35GWh theoretical.

avg Uber ride costs $2/mile today. cars live for ~150k miles. robotaxis could charge $1/mile and generate $150k in revenue over their lifetime.
transportation as a service flips gross margin structure of vehicles from ~20% to 50%+
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · Apr 13, 2019
Model 3 drive unit & body is designed like a commercial truck for a million mile life. Current battery modules should last 300k to 500k miles (1500 cycles). Replacing modules (not pack) will only cost $5k to $7k.
