CORE TECHNOLOGY
Artificial Intelligence Software and Hardware
Software that safely performs tasks in the real world is the key focus of our Al
development efforts. We have commissioned one of the world's largest
supercomputers to accelerate the pace of our Al development, with compute capacity
more than doubling compared to Q2. Our large installed base of vehicles continues to
generate anonymized video and other data used to develop our FSD Capability
features.
Vehicle and Other Software
All Tesla rentals through Hertz in the U.S. and Canada now allow Tesla app access,
allowing renters to use keyless lock/unlock via phone key, remotely precondition the
cabin, track charge status and more. Customers who already have a Tesla Profile will
have their settings and preferences seamlessly applied, making the rental car feel like
their own. The in-app service experience was also redesigned to allow customers to
schedule service, access their loaner, track service progress, pay and manage drop-
off/pickup. Prospective customers can similarly schedule, locate and test drive a
demo vehicle.
Battery, Powertrain & Manufacturing
Despite macroeconomic headwinds, our planned factory shutdowns in Q3 and
ongoing ramp at new factories, our average vehicle cost was -$37,500, and we
continue to work to reduce the cost further. For very heavy vehicles, a high voltage
powertrain architecture brings notable cost savings, which is why Cybertruck will
adopt an 800-volt architecture.
