    I laughed when the pipe length part came on, because it is so true. I am planning a new electricity plant, after watching Sandy we started to look hard at how we could do our boreholes, and thanks to Sandyfying our mindset we saved 60 kilometres of drilling boreholes.
    Yeah, every kilometer became 20 percent more expensive, but the savings and efficiency uptake took that back with a vengeance.
    Now I have a new Sandyism to spread around. "Don't save me any money, I can't afford it." Gold...

      Sandy's way of looking at things and his team with just a few videos helped you to make that happen. Imagine how much more you could do if were around them for a 3 day workshop. What I am impressed with is that you were willing to Sandyfy your thinking and take a SECOND LOOK. My first ideas are usually not the best and doing things how they have always been done without asking why is DANGEROUS. The value you gave your company due to this channel is immense and I hope you look at every project as if you had Sandy and Team over your shoulder.

      And yet, the Hyundai Kona is one of the most energy-efficient EVs out there, with owners easily getting upwards of 5.5 miles/kWh without really trying, and as much as 7.5 if they do. Even on my daily commute I'd often see 6+ miles/kWh. They must be doing something right.

    I was there, I can tell you much more about the photos and stuff. The big building inside the factory you show at the start, is the stamping press that makes all the panels for the top of the car, before they are welded together. All the factory workers stood by the lines and you could ask the, anything. They know what every robot, handle or thing did, it was so interesting and so great to be able to get all this knowledge.Only the new colors was a secret, but they hide some cars with the new colors in the factory. I only found the red. I also have photos and video I can share,free of charge.

    I watched an interview recently with JB Strudel and he remarked, when they released the Model S in 2012, it was widely acclaimed as the best car made, and they thought they would have to go as fast as they could and try and carve out a niche as all the ICE manufacturers would start producing EV’s. He added, they were astonished that nothing happen!! I have zero empathy for them, their Boards, Management and ultimately shareholders were asleep at the wheel, content in taking fat cheques…hubris is an amazing thing and they will pay a very very large price as their road to be competitive is at least a decade behind and that’s assuming Telsa does nothing from this day forth

      It also means that battery pack replacement/repairs is orders of magnitude more complex than it was before! If Tesla cannot pass the cost-savings down to the consumers in MUCH lower prices, the legacy effect of the "structural" battery will mean many cars being scrapped as economically impractical to repair and that flies directly in the face of what they say they aim for!

      It is even more important to get bean counters to get off the short term economies and the CEOs chosen for their direction to the future. Costs are inevitable but productive future profit requires vision change at all levels. I have heard Sandy mention past suggestions that were inline with Tesla but failed to get implemented both while working for companies and in recommendations after analysing products. When companies get to the top, they stop, they fall back on cheap profits, glitzy ads and telling people they are number one. Tesla is innovating but mostly it is listening, thinking and doing. Tesla is not concerned about who got the idea first but whether it fits to what is needed now. And more importantly, it is a team effort from top to bottom. When they lose that they will begin to fall behind.

      True, but what we also need even more are people willing to ACT and LISTEN to guys like Sandy who are working at these companies TODAY. Sandy worked at Ford for a few decades, made his way up and they let him LEAVE. How many other Sandy's are looking at the Exit today? Everyone that works at Munroe is a mini Sandy and they either got fired or left before they would be let go from other companies because management was so "smart" and they didn't fit. THAT is the BIGGEST ISSUE. Those people leave and go work at Tesla or do their own thing like Sandy.

If Ultium fails it’s curtains for GM. We must be better than the Chinese or it will be history repeating itself. Toyota’s arrogance is astonishing.

    Elon Musk was hailed and treated like a rock star when he came on stage at the fair. And exactly like happens when you are a rockstar with a band, the monitor did not work properly and did not show what the audience was seeing. And then there were screams and lovecalls and requests from the public. Even a lady asked whether her son could apply while still in school. I can't imagine stuff like that happening in the USA. Anyway, these are the things that real rockstars experience all the time. It was funny to see that.

      The school system in Germany is such that kids get to go to a technical school real early. They can start an apprenticeship at 16 according to the kid's vocation, if I'm not mistaken. Companies like BMW offer apprenticeships and they hire them after their apprenticeship. The whole system is efficient and I wish more countries were more invested in helping the kids figure out their professional lives long before they hit 16 years of age, instead of wasting the children's time with general knowledge classes and a mostly useless curriculum.

    Thanks Guys! Another excellent video! As for exactly how the center of the MY will be constructed at Brandenberg, I think i heard a rumor that they will start with 2170s and transition to 4680s later. My understanding is that 2170s need more hardware around them than 4680s so maybe there will be some kind of middle lower frame piece with 2170s in first cars produced.

    Seems Tesla is learning from their past mistakes and putting a lot of thought into fixing the inefficiencies of Freemont. They took their model 3 tent ideas applied to shanghai and now seem to have gone after the shanghai model and refined further for Berlin and Texas.
    They wanna be experts in manufacturing, and their factories are showing that instead of fixing one factory standard mold, they are willing to iterate their factory design. That means they will identify the unforeseen problems with these new facilities as they ramp up, and their next one will be even better, rinse and repeat and you end up with the best manufacture capability in the market.

After the battery install, just plug in the wire harness and cut the ties holding the carpet back.

    Sandy's point about reduction of parts (consolidation) and efficiency is spot on. This is why a PC costs 1/10th what it did when it first came out. Far fewer parts - modularity (which has an expense) ONLY when it can be justified. And therein lies the second lesson - first order decisions vs full order decisions. Remember when wheel bearings were pressed into a casting? Then the whole bearing and casting became one orderable part - there is an analysis of the efficency of that, the assembly cost, repair cost, inventory cost etc etc. The full burdend costs. Not just is the bearing less esxpensive.

    Having a rocket scientist mentality and borrowing from these folks at SpaceX to add in putting a car together certainly gives Tesla a huge advantage over your traditional ice vehicles build-up in ways that can't be conceived by every other car maker.

      I would argue there is more auto manufacturing going into SpaceX than vice versa. Some material science transfers for sure. Software maybe too but that can apply to both. I think it is more about the mindset to apply technology at an extreme pace vs understanding new technology. The world is full of products that COULD utilize new proven technology but accountants, ROI calcs, lack of talent, lack of desire all hold it back. Tesla's secret sauce is having the default to invest in improvements as rapidly as possible.
