Part 7/8:
Beyond compensation, discussions touched on Tesla’s vehicle lineup and innovation strategy. While iconic models like the Model S still resonate with fans, the company is focusing more on autonomous and AI-driven vehicles, such as the Cybertruck and the proposed Cybercab, a purpose-built autonomous taxi.
Tesla's leadership indicated that their future vehicle plans are less about traditional design and more centered on AI integration for autonomous mobility. Elon Musk’s focus on full self-driving (FSD) capabilities suggests a shift toward a transportation ecosystem where vehicles are not just cars but AI-powered mobility units. Although specific upcoming models haven't been publicly announced, plans for new vehicles, including a Roadster, remain on the company's roadmap.
