Is there anything in Tesla's history that would lead you to believe they'd be sitting on some technology and not making announcements every few months about their amazing progress on it and imminent production of it?

Tesla is much more likely to announce a great new battery before they've even started working on it than after it's almost ready.



One is marketing and/or hucksterism.

The other is a moat.

They absolutely are not going to announce/reveal their moat, especially when it loses a lot of its value as a moat when it is revealed.

It seems like there are some doubters here.

Just remember that you heard it here first when it happens.

Expect 500-600 mile range for current vehicle line and substantially lower prices for current “long”range of ~320 miles, probably sold as one-motor “standard range” in order to keep the markets siloed.
