Transcript
- 0:07Hey everybody. Welcome back to the Elon Musk
- 0:09podcast. I'm your host will Walden.
- 0:11And on this episode, we're going to be talking about Tesla, we're
- 0:15going to be talking about Tesla and some other vehicles that are
- 0:19coming up. That may be challenging the
- 0:21model 3, there's actually one vehicle in particular that I'd
- 0:26like to talk about the may be challenging the model 3 which
- 0:30Which is a really good seller for Tesla.
- 0:33It's a Hyundai. So we're going to be talking
- 0:36about that a little bit but first I want to talk about the
- 0:40Tesla delivery is that a fallen and the second quarter about
- 0:4518%, there's been a China Factory shut down for Tesla.
- 0:50So they've had a Slowdown and Tesla delivered, 250, 4695
- 0:57electric vehicles in the second quarter.
- 1:00Across the globe and that's nearly 18 percent drop from the
- 1:06previous period. And that's because there's
- 1:08supply chain, constraints, coming in covid.
- 1:11Had an extended covid. China had a extended covid-19
- 1:15lockdown. They had new factories built in
- 1:18Berlin and Austin, and it takes a lot of time to get those
- 1:21systems up and running, so they couldn't really ramp it up in
- 1:26time to get the deliveries out in a supply.
- 1:29I chain, we've all heard it before the chip makers.
- 1:34It's slowing everything down to slowing down the whole industry.
- 1:37The whole Auto industry has slowed down because of this and
- 1:40we've heard numerous rumors throughout the last six months
- 1:44that Tesla is going to take all chip design and making
- 1:48everything for the vehicles in house where they don't have
- 1:52anything built by anybody else. Anything at all?
- 1:56And that's a possibility because if the if these Lines.
- 2:01Keep kind of shutting down over time and they have to rely on
- 2:03other people. You know, it's going to be a
- 2:07tough one for Tesla in the near future and it could be also
- 2:12because of another vehicle. Now, this is the first time in
- 2:15two years that Tesla deliveries have fallen quarter-over-quarter
- 2:21and the second quarter last year was actually up about 26.5% and
- 2:27the reduction in the Quarter and quarter line, it's a supply
- 2:32chain issue. Of, like I said before, across
- 2:34the whole industry, every vehicle maker, you go to, let's
- 2:39say, you go to carvanha, right? You're looking for a car on
- 2:41Karana, any vehicle you're looking for?
- 2:44It's hard to find anything. Anything EV right now is almost
- 2:50impossible to get your hands on and I was on carvanha last
- 2:54night, check it out. Model threes, there's none, in
- 2:57stock, literally none. It I bought a new Subaru last
- 3:01year about a year ago and it's a nice vehicle but it was easy and
- 3:08it was almost. It's super hard to get a vehicle
- 3:10of any kind of this point through carvanha.
- 3:13They sell out immediately. And I know that that's a problem
- 3:17across the board and sometimes even at regular dealerships,
- 3:21people will buy something. From carvanha.
- 3:24Are they used to buy things on qivana at a discount?
- 3:27And then they would sell them to the local dealerships?
- 3:30That dealerships would mark them up.
- 3:31The dealership is make some money that's kind of the
- 3:34roundabout way to do it. And that's not happenin anymore
- 3:38because everybody's price is pretty high.
- 3:40So it's hard to find a vehicle in a few.
- 3:43Do you have to get it immediately?
- 3:45But there's a markup because there's very few of them
- 3:49available. So, Sometimes at Shops, you
- 3:54know, they mark them up a bunch a couple thousand dollars over
- 3:58MSRP and sometimes you could haggle before, you can haggle
- 4:01the MSRP. See if the vehicles 40,000 you
- 4:04can probably handle them down to if you're good you know 3650 you
- 4:09know 365 I should say. But now you can't do that.
- 4:14Everything seems to be over MSRP.
- 4:17So you know the fact that Tesla's Having all these issues
- 4:22and everybody else is having all these issues.
- 4:24It just it is across the whole board.
- 4:27So, no worries about Tesla for this.
- 4:29It's happening to everybody but there is something you might
- 4:33have to worry about if your Tesla.
- 4:36And that's the 2024, Hyundai ioniq 6.
- 4:42There were some concepts of this car out a little while ago, a
- 4:46few years ago and the concepts looked great and we were all
- 4:52hoping that the concepts of this vehicle would come to fruition,
- 4:57and they delivered. This vehicle.
- 5:01Looks amazing. It's kind of, like, a Porsche
- 5:04911. If you want to think about that
- 5:06Porsche 911. But modern, Evie.
- 5:11Everything looks. Just great.
- 5:15I don't know how, I don't know how to explain this vehicle to
- 5:18anybody who hasn't seen it yet, but I'm thinking think of about
- 5:22a Porsche 911 with the wing But it's a smaller Wing.

- 7:47And the thing is it's the same price range as the model 3.
- 7:54So they have to worry about that Tesla has to worry about that.
- 7:59They have digital side mirrors on this thing.
- 8:03You know, of course, the aerodynamics of the handles, the
- 8:06handles pop out. It's very modern looking, and
- 8:10also it's going to be the same price range.
- 8:12Probably about 40,000. We're estimating.
- 8:15There's no numbers out quite yet.
- 8:17That I Find. But what people are saying is
- 8:19that it's going to be near the ionic 5.
- 8:21So that's about, you know, in the 40,000 range But it looks
- 8:28looks great, it has like a kind of long Sleek.
- 8:31Look, there's a good length to it.
- 8:35It's a cavernous space, there's a lot of legroom for taller
- 8:39people. You know, the it's just it's a
- 8:43great looking vehicle. And somebody, if you can't get
- 8:47your hands on a Tesla because Tesla's are selling out like
- 8:50crazy and you have the money in your pocket, it's burning a hole
- 8:53in your pocket. You have 40 Grand to spend on a
- 8:56vehicle. I think you're going to go for
- 8:58this the Hyundai ioniq 6. It looks like it's going to be a
- 9:03direct competitor for people that don't want to buy a Tesla.
- 9:07And they don't want to deal with waiting, you know?
- 9:11Three, four, five months for their test, that a ship.
- 9:15I mean, I've had one of my friends and this is just
- 9:17anecdotal. One of my friends has a model.
- 9:20Why? An order, right?
- 9:23She put the money on the model, why they said, okay, we're going
- 9:26to, we're going to ship it to you in a month and they were
- 9:30like, that's fine. I have a vehicle already.
- 9:32I don't need of new vehicle right now.
- 9:34Then they postpone them for about four more months and she
- 9:38was like, maybe I don't need the Tesla.
- 9:41Maybe I need a different vehicle because at least I can actually
- 9:45get an EV at this point, because she was just interested in
- 9:49getting into a new TV, So I'm not going to tell you what
- 9:54vehicle she's looking at, but it's similar to or Tesla and
- 10:00it's in the same price range. So if you think about that and
- 10:03then you think about the ionic six, forty Grand around there
- 10:07for model 3 or the ionic 6. I don't know, it's going to be a
- 10:11tough one, because I'm going to be in the market for a TV and a
- 10:13couple of years, and when I was looking for a Tesla, I didn't
- 10:17have the money to be honest with you, when it's 40 Grand and I
- 10:20didn't have four, And for a Tesla at that point, I wasn't
- 10:22making enough money to spend on a Tesla.
- 10:25Those like, well, I gotta buy a Subaru because it's half the
- 10:28price. Basically, I can buy a nice
- 10:30Subaru, it's a great car. Subaru Legacy great, great
- 10:35vehicle. And I can spend half the price.
- 10:38But when I'm in the market for a new TV, hopefully by that time
- 10:42there's going to be competition and this is going to be driving
- 10:46Tesla forward to, because if people are starting to move away
- 10:49from Tesla to Another vehicle just because they can't get
- 10:54their hands on Tesla due to supply chain issues or they just
- 10:57don't like something about Teslas.
- 10:59You know, maybe there's they don't like the one screen and
- 11:03the cool thing about the ionic is that the screen is all the
- 11:05way across the bash. You know, maybe not all the way
- 11:08across it goes across towards the past the armrest from driver
- 11:12side to the passenger side and then it kind of cuts off but the
- 11:17the infotainment system seems All right.
- 11:21We don't really have any more information about the
- 11:23infotainment system other than it has one, and you could
- 11:25probably use, you know, Google play or an Apple device for your
- 11:32infotainment system. So it's just it, it looks cool
- 11:37man. If you pull up, you know,
- 11:39somebody's house in this thing or to a party or whatever people
- 11:42are gonna be like, that's a cool looking Hyundai.
- 11:44You know, that's a, that's a great looking, a little car.
- 11:47So, I think it's going to turn some heads.
- 11:50I think people are going to enjoy it, and we don't know a
- 11:53lot of specs about it at this point, but we're guessing it's
- 11:58going to get about 350 miles to the charge as well.
- 12:02So looking forward to this one in the future.
- 12:05I can't wait to see what they do with it.
- 12:06It looks I mean, looks similar to a Tesla.
- 12:10The Porsche looks kind of like a tie can in a model 3 in the
- 12:16front end and it has a Rear spoiler, which is like the 911
- 12:20so it looks just cool in general.
- 12:23Okay, get I can't wait to get my hands on something like this
- 12:25when I actually buy an EV. So so I'm a huge fan of it and I
- 12:32can't wait till I get my hands on something like this.
- 12:34I didn't couple years they're going to have something way
- 12:37cooler than ice to so Buy It. Now by it early or just wait,
- 12:41it's going to be a an easy choice for people that are
- 12:44interested in a TV in the same price range as a model.
