Very interesting video on the Tesla European supply chain and the possibility of a sole source supplier.  Great video for Tesla fans but also a great video to see the issues that pop up with scarce material.

Electric Vehicle Quotes

  • “I really do encourage other manufacturers to bring electric cars to market. It’s a good thing, and they need to bring it to market and keep iterating and improving and make better and better electric cars, and that’s what going to result in humanity achieving a sustainable transport future. I wish it was growing faster than it is.” ~Elon Musk
  • “Cars have a large engine in the front and you have a gearbox, which is cumbersome. Electric cars don’t have this problem. The motor is much smaller, the battery is below you. This will allow you to play with different shapes.” ~Carlos Ghosn
  • “The car industry has invested a lot in hybrid, but my opinion is electric cars will take over a lot of hybrids quicker than people think now.” ~Henrik Fisker
  • “The battery is the key to the electric car.  If your supply chain for the battery fails then you fail.” ~Dave Waters
  • “Electric cars are coal-powered cars. Their carbon emissions can be worse than gasoline-powered cars.”  ~Vinod Khosla
  • “Electric cars are not going to take the market by storm, but it’s going to be a gradual improvement.” ~Carlos Ghosn
  • “We have teams of people working on electric cars. So you never know – you may find Virgin competing with the Tesla in the car business as we do in the space business.” ~Richard Branson
