  Tesla is ending Model S and Model X production. The Fremont factory space will now build Optimus robots. The cars that funded the vision are making room for the future @elonmusk was always building toward. Tesla isn't just a car company anymore. [video]

• @zacksjerryrig @zacksjerryrig on x

  So @Tesla canceled TWO staple pillars of S3XY so they can focus on the robot that walks like Joe Biden? OK. 👍 I'm sure everything's fine.

• @snazzylabs Quinn Nelson on x

  Remember how I've been saying for years that Tesla doesn't care about the Model S/X at all? Well, yeah, I was right.

• @jasondebolt Jason DeBolt on x

  I'm sad to hear that the model S and model X will be discontinued, but it makes complete sense. I ordered my Tesla model S in 2011 and took delivery in early 2013. It was a rare vehicle even in Palo Alto and Mountain View at that time. I gave many test rides to my coworkers,

• @mattlinn01 Matt Linn on x

  The more I think about the S/X being cancelled... the more sad I get. The S literally is @Tesla. It's the car that announced them to the world. Tesla should have Next-Gen'd it. Put everything they have into it. Bring it back to being the technological wonder that it once [image]

  If @Tesla has 500 robotaxis and doubles the fleet every month, it could surpass Waymo's fleet in 3-4 months. Last we saw Waymo had 3K cars total.

• @urgo Jason Urgo on x

  @Tesla As an owner of a '15 S & '22 X Plaid & had plans to buy another X in when it had AI5 this really really sucks. I hope you will reconsider as the Y & 3 are too small for me & not interested in a truck. For the first time in 11 years you're forcing me to look into other bran…

• @tesla @tesla on x

  As we shift to an autonomous future, Model S & X production will wind down next quarter. If you'd like to own one of them, now's a good time to place your order. Tesla wouldn't be what it is today without Model S & X and their (early) owners - thank you for your support over [ima…

  The Tesla Model S and Model X are amazing vehicles. Get them while still available!

• @garyblack00 Gary Black on x

  All things considered, I expect $TSLA to rise by 2-3% tomorrow after analysts digest the positives and negatives and update their earnings models. $20B CapExp (and related margin pressures) is clearly a negative, as is discontinuation of TSLA's profitable S/X models, but

• @mikekantorski Mike Kantorski on x

  I really dislike the direction Tesla is headed. A vehicle you subscribe to. A vehicle you don't get to drive. A vehicle with no soul. I hope this isn't the future. Please @Rivian don't become this...

• @hamids Hamid on x

  As much as I love the $TSLA Model S & X, I would no longer recommend that anybody buy these products as they will almost certainly have horrific resale values after they are discontinued. Elon's decision to cancel the S&X is purely because of sales of these vehicles dropping

• @briandstone Brian Stone on x

  I do not understand this decision. While I agree the S&X are VERY dated and due for a total overhaul, discontinuing them completely is very confusing to me. Tesla will only offer the 3/Y/CT which isn't a very well rounded offering at all. The 3 & Y aren't comfortable to me and

  Sunsetting S & X is capital rotation. Robotaxi and Optimus are the real products now. Vehicles become nodes. Labor becomes software. Most people still think Tesla sells cars.

  Tesla investing in xAI What a good surprise. While $2bn is small (<1% of xAI), it shows that the shareholder vote in Nov had a positive impact. Also preserves cash in a year when we need it for many projects. Thank you to all who voted and helped, especially @_SFTahoe.
