The latest Elon Musk Tesla comments are here: Elon Musk says that the difference between Tesla being "worth a lot of money or practically zero" depends on whether it can offer autonomous driving.
The founder of Tesla, Elon Musk, has assured that the key to the value of the electric car manufacturer, whose market capitalization currently exceeds 724,000 million dollars (almost 700,000 million euros) is whether it is able to achieve complete autonomous driving, since otherwise the brand "would be worth basically zero".
The billionaire has made this reflection while talking about the software problems that the electric car manufacturer is facing and wants to fix, such as the navigator of his vehicles, which he admitted is terribly slow.
"But the most overwhelming focus is on solving complete autonomous driving," Musk said in an interview with the Tesla Owners Silicon Valley YouTube channel.
Elon Musk Tesla comments
Elon Musk has made multiple promises about the launch of a fully autonomous Tesla since 2015, when he assured that such technology would hit the streets in 3 years.
The American brand launched that year the Autopilot system, which allows the vehicle to adapt the speed and direction to the road markings, although it requires the supervision of a human driver.
Subsequently, in the last quarter of 2020, the American brand launched Full Self-Driving, a service with a price of $ 12,000 (11.500 euros) in the United States, after the last price increase, or a subscription is $ 199 (191 euros) per month, which allows the vehicle to change lanes automatically, recognize stop signs and traffic lights and park. But just like Autopilot, it requires the driver's attention.

In 2019, Musk said he was "confident" that by the end of that year, Tesla cars "would be able to find you a place to park, pick you up and take you to your destination without human intervention." "This is not a question," he said then.
But Tesla has suffered several setbacks in its autonomous driving system, and it is unclear when it will launch that technology. At the conference with analysts after the results of the last quarter of 2021, Musk again promised that Tesla would make its vehicles fully autonomous by the end of the year.
Currently, Tesla shares are trading for about $ 700 (672 euros, at the current exchange rate) and have lost more than 40% of their value so far this year, since they started 2022 near the $ 1,200 (1,150 euros) listing.
