Part 11/16:
Tesla’s recent move to cancel the Cybertruck range extender and retool manufacturing lines may also indicate a focus on efficiency and scale. There is speculation that supply chain limitations or battery constraints, rather than bad planning, could be behind some delays and cancellations.
Notably, the company seems to be carefully adjusting production plans to balance demand, costs, and supply chain risks. For instance, the company may be slowing down battery production temporarily or shifting to proven manufacturing processes to ensure higher uptime and reliability.
