Recently, there has been some news about Tesla's difficulties in producing the all-** Cybertruck model, which has attracted a lot of attention. Tesla CEO Elon Musk has said that the prototype of the Cybertruck is relatively easy to build, but the mass production stage is where the real challenge lies.
According to people familiar with the matter, Tesla is still facing the problem of solving the problem of dry coating of the body. Specifically, there are no problems with the production of anode dry coatings for Tesla's 4680 batteries, but there are some difficulties in the manufacture of cathode dry coatings. And the dry coating of the cathode is precisely one of the most expensive components in the battery.
For Tesla, solving production challenges is a serious challenge. Tesla plans to apply the 4680 battery to other models, specifically about 2020, which will be launched in the mid-2020s$50,000 for a small car. However, people familiar with the matter pointed out that it is not easy to copy existing technology from one production line to another, which has also led to some delays in the production process.
Tesla should take the urgency of solving production challenges in a high regard. Dry coating plays an important role in battery manufacturing, directly affecting the performance and stability of the battery. Tesla should strengthen R&D and innovation, optimize the dry-coat manufacturing process, and ensure the production of reliable and high-performance battery products. At the same time, Tesla should also take effective measures to ensure the efficient replication and application of the technology to multiple production lines to ensure the smooth progress of mass production.
In another positive news, Tesla announced information about the Cybertruck's Mileage Expansion Package on December 6, further strengthening the Cybertruck's competitiveness. With the installation of the expansion package, the range of the Cybertruck Beast has been increased from 515 km to 705 km, and the range of the all-wheel drive version has been increased from 547 km to 755 km.
This move significantly improves the usefulness and competitiveness of the Cybertruck, which is a very attractive factor for consumers. While Tesla continues to strive to improve product performance and technological innovation, it should also continue to be committed to the development of sustainable energy and promote the further development of the electric vehicle market.
Considering the recently launched Cyber Pickup Mileage Expansion Pack, it can provide consumers with additional range. However, it has been reported that expansion packs can sell for as much as $1$60,000, which sparked controversy over whether it was worth buying. The starting price of the Tesla Cyber pickup itself is already at 3560,000 yuan to 43Between 50,000 yuan, plus the expansion package may exceed 470,000 yuan, consumers need to carefully consider the return on investment.
Tesla faced a number of challenges in the development and production of the Cybertruck. From issues during early prototype manufacturing and testing to R&D and cost pressures for electric pickups, the company needs to continually address these challenges. Tesla should focus on solving bottlenecks in 4680 battery production and accelerating the pace of improving battery production and quality control levels to achieve target yields and meet consumer demand. Only through these efforts will Tesla be able to stay ahead of the fierce market competition and further advance the development of electric vehicle technology.
