Deliver next-generation Tesla vehicle platform
“We’re working on the next-gen platform that will cost half as much to build.”
Promise broken Promise Date: 01 Mar 2023 Promise Deadline: Indefinite
Promise Details

Musk announced Tesla’s next-generation vehicle architecture—often called “Model 2”—aimed to halve production costs. It uses modular manufacturing and large castings for high-volume, low-cost models. Factory preparations are underway but delayed. Musk claims production will begin in 2026. Analysts say success here defines Tesla’s ability to compete with cheaper EVs from China.

Why it is broken

The next-generation low-cost Tesla vehicle platform has not been delivered or launched into mass production. The promised platform remains delayed and unfulfilled.
