| Elon Musk launches the new Model 3 Tesla. |
Just hours after founder Elon Musk revealed that pre-orders
for Tesla's cheaper Model 3 vehicle, which was unveiled to acclaim last week,
had surpassed the most optimistic expectations, the company outlined ongoing
problems over the delivery of existing vehicles.
The deliveries of vehicles on the market were lower than
expected in the first quarter, it said in a blunt statement.
Read The Sydney
Morning Herald story - “Tesla blames its own 'hubris' as it fails to deliver.”
(Back to my mantra –
privately owned cars, electric or otherwise, will not be, cannot be a part of
our future. Even if the world’s population only just exceeds 10 billion by
2100, the world will not have sufficient resources for an equivalent growth in
privately owned cars. Beyond the anarchic
use of the private car, the infrastructure they require is simply too consuming
– Robert McLean.)
