I'm happy to read this here! On saturday we celebrated a birthday with the family and my wife told me after coming home that someone said, Tesla and all the EV's will not succeed, that's crap, hybrid cars are the future.. i was grinning and just shaked my head that someone claimed that.. but (un)fortunately i was in another room. I'm so sure because i researched maybe 5 years a go the masterplan by Elon Musk and the reality with the first manufactured cars, Roadster, Model S, followed the development with curiosity and excitement. He was never on schedule but in the end he delivered what he promised and what was before.. Tesla was ridiculed by CE companies.. "there is no market!" "look, all EV's burn!" "there are no charging stations!" "it's too expensive!" "their sales are ridiculous small!" "they go bankrupt!" and many more..

For me it's like a big puzzle as an investor and with each year a new piece fits to the bigger picture and the vision materializes and is completing the predicted reality. If you look to germany.. uhh! the media sponsored by automotive companies is spreading FUD and misleading information all around. There are obvious trolls in blogs and forums who are from the CE party and constantly write against EV's with hair-rasing arguments. They never stop, even it's obvious that Tesla delivered the next product with success, and now before the M3 "they go bankrupt!" "they have no experience!" "we'll be the leaders by 2025!".. maybe, it's possible but who further develops old technologies like Diesel engines should be aware that he could not fully focus on a future technology and that can be disastrous over the long term.

Meanwhile german companies switched their sentiment completely and behave like if they are the inventors of EV's.. 😉 but leaders have to change their mind in favor of the company that's ok and natural. Now Tesla turned from the invisible hunter to the hunted. Really? Peter Thiel sees Tesla as the typical 0 to 1 company which means they are so committed to their product that all! their energy and especially money flows into the development of the core product, no distraction, highest innovation level without any compromise,  no old CE lines, no old knowledge, everything is set for fastest growth to disrupt the old technology.. economy.. what will happen with a masterplan which is almost completed, the rise of a whole new ecosystem with already established superchargers all round the world, with a order backlog of hundreds of thousands cars, like an iPhone? From the energy collection and transformation to the storage up to the consumption in the grid, in the cars, home, .. who took the lead as now integrated energy company not just a car manufacturer? That's the question i always ask.

For me there is always the central idea, the vision of the founders visible and they work as hard as they can to reach their goals and almost unstoppable backed by people who love and buy the product. For me that's obvious what will happen. If you look at established car manufacturers, what they do, they go to a exhibition and have the nerve to present their newest Diesel product and say it's the future.. and politics work against that with new emission standards which means any new customers will be punished in the near future.. that's the truth for me and while writing this i'm just feeling a bit angry.. but that's the market, each one fights for their share.

Thank you for uncovering the interesting facts about Tesla.
