Amidst the ongoing discussion about the Cybertruck’s shortcomings, recent scrutiny into Elon Musk’s management style is gaining traction.

Jennifer Sensiba published an article examining the reasons for Tesla’s recent errors. In reply, a reader called Roger Lambert provided a strong rebuttal, suggesting that much of Tesla’s present troubles arise from bad choices made by Chief Executive Officer Elon Musk.
Lambert indicated that the Cybertruck
could have
managed to succeed as a mass-produced vehicle had it been constructed using a traditional box-frame pickup truck chassis. However, Musk’s adherence to an impractical design led to ongoing production delays and consistent quality issues.
He emphasized that the vehicle had the potential to sell millions if it were introduced as an affordably priced, five-seater, full-sized electric pickup truck with dependable performance. Nevertheless, failing to meet these expectations played a crucial role in its demise.
Lambert also took issue with Musk’s persistent focus on elements such as the Model X’s falcon-wing doors, which substantially delayed its release. In addition, he believed that removing LIDAR from Tesla’s self-driving technology represented a significant error in judgment.
Furthermore, Musk’s decision not to invest in solid-state battery technology but rather to commit billions into current lithium-ion systems has imposed a substantial long-term challenge for the firm. Lambert also pointed out that Musk’s progressively authoritarian approach to management has led key personnel to leave Tesla, exacerbating the company’s underlying instabilities within its organizational structure.
