Part 8/15:
Tesla’s recent rollout of V13.2.78 is also impacting its insurance offerings. The company announced that in California, Tesla owners switching their insurance to Tesla’s platform may receive a one-time 3% discount on premiums. These policies are now underwritten directly by Tesla, signifying a deeper strategic push into the insurance market—an area with substantial profit potential.
This move aligns with Musk’s vision of integrating hardware, software, and services into a seamless ecosystem, transforming Tesla from a car manufacturer into a comprehensive mobility and energy platform.
