The "most exciting, whether it works or not, demo of any product ever": Musk confirmed the highly anticipated Roaster launch would be on April 1, with production roughly 12-18 months later. Production of the Cybercab was also announced for an April start.
Proposed Tesla terra fab could rival capacity of existing chip giants: Musk said the growing demand needed to keep pace with his artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics ambitions means Tesla could need to build its own “gigantic” chip fab, citing a lack of capacity from existing suppliers.

Fool analyst Alicia Alfiere previously noted, "They've done a lot of product improvements that look to reduce the friction of booking/paying, and they're continuing to go after markets where they're underpenetrated."
