I really do encourage other manufacturers to bring electric cars to market. It's a good thing, and they need to bring it to market and keep iterating and improving and make better and better electric cars, and that's what going to result in humanity achieving a sustainable transport future. I wish it was growing faster than it is.
The key word for transportation in the 21st is 'choice.'
Tesla is here to stay and keep fighting for the electric car revolution.
I think any carmaker that had a brain and was looking very long-term would think about 'Personalised Transport Solutions' - which may not be a car.
Le Ambassador Electrique
The electricity reference came from the recognition of Franklin's early lighting and electricity experiments.
Dubai makes perfect sense for Hyperloop One because this is the 21st century's global transport hub, and its leaders understand that Hyperloop One is ushering in the next era of transportation.
Restrictions on mobility will be removed as cars become driverless. We'll be chauffeured, basically.
Electric cars are going to be very important for urban transportation.
With Hyperloop One, we are on the brink of the first great breakthrough in transportation technology of the 21st century, eliminating the barriers of time and distance and unlocking vast economic opportunities.
Most people will be primarily getting into autonomous vehicles if we look 20, 30 years out. If we mandate that autonomous vehicles have to be electric, then we will move people into electric vehicles.
Everything that's transported over ground, whether it's people or parcels, will be impacted by autonomous vehicle technology.
The future of our individual transport has to be electric!
For the first time in over 100 years, a new mode of transportation has been introduced. Hyperloop is real, and it's here now.
Hyperloop is the ultimate pinnacle of that idea of, 'Can we actually shrink space and time?'
The hyperloop will be a digital network. That's why we say we look at transportation as a new form of broadband.
