Part 2/9:
As 2024 unfolded, Tesla’s journey didn’t align with the earlier forecasts of continuous 50% year-over-year growth. Rather, the company signaled a “gap year” aimed at regrouping, emphasizing that their goal was to prepare for “extreme scale.” Tesla’s pivotal projects include the semi-truck production and the Cyber Cab, both designed to tap into vast market opportunities. The latter targets the ride-hailing space, while also hinting at a broader labor market addressed by their humanoid robots.
