Elon Musk Just Disappointed Some Tesla Fans with This News

Posted on

Tesla’s CEO Elon Musk had a very disappointing answer to a Twitter user this week.

Many have been waiting for Tesla to make major changes to its Model S and Model X but these changes won’t happen.

Musk said the company is planning for only “a series of minor ongoing changes” for its older Model S and Model X vehicles.

@BrandonJHavard tweeted, ” So like… @elonmusk when’s the refreshed Model X coming? Asking for a friend… 😬”

Musk replied, “There is no “refreshed” Model X or Model S coming, only a series of minor ongoing changes. Most significant change in past few years was to use high efficiency Model 3 rear drive unit as S/X front drive unit.
That went into production 3 months ago.”

Not too long ago Tesla employees had said to CNCB that a Model S refresh was in the works, with the company wanting to deliver a 400-mile range battery.

Tesla is also overhauling its factor in Fremont, California according to to new filings with the City of Fremont.
The filings revealed that Tesla is aiming to overhaul its body-in-white and paint facilities and equipment in the city before embarking on its next phase of electric vehicle production.

Musk recently said the company would deliver between 90,000 and 100,000 vehicles for the second quarter of 2019 and he was right. Tesla successfully delivered 95,200 cars to customers during the quarter.

Tesla stated, “Orders generated during the quarter exceeded our deliveries, thus we are entering Q3 with an increase in our order backlog. We believe we are well positioned to continue growing total production and deliveries in Q3.”
