Tesla is scaling back on gigacasting ambitions

02 May 2024
Tesla, once a leader in innovative manufacturing with its gigacasting process, appears to be slowing down those ambitions in a company-wide pivot.

Sort by:

The one piece gigacasting would probably have made insurance unaffordable due to even a small crash being a writeoff. Volvo had a similar problem at one point with a bidy design that wrote off after minor sill damage.
This is why sensible EV buyers go to companies that actually have some experience making cars.

Tesla is scaling back to save its stock. Selling their stock makes money for them, not selling cars.
