Elon's Job Proposal / Trump Impressed With Tesla / Cybertruck Range Extender Update ⚡️

We have to bring energy prices down. Energy started at the price of gasoline. Now, your cars don't require too much gasoline. So you have a good, and you do make a great product, I have to say, I have to be honest with you. That doesn't mean everybody should have an electric car, but these are minor details. But your product is incredible. But the gasoline, Elon, is the cost of energy. Not only gasoline, it's the cost of heating your house and cooling your house. That has to come down. It's gone up 100%, 150 and 200%. And that has to come down.

我们必须降低能源价格。能源开始于汽油的价格。现在，你的汽车不需要太多汽油。所以你有一个很好的产品，而且我必须诚实地说，你的产品确实很出色。但这并不意味着每个人都应该拥有一辆电动汽车，这只是一些小细节。但你的产品确实令人难以置信。然而，埃隆，汽油是能源成本的一部分。不仅是汽油，还有供暖和制冷的成本。那些成本必须下降。它们已经上涨了100%、150%甚至200%，而这些成本必须下降。

When that comes down and we're going to drill, baby drill, they stopped drilling and then they went back to drilling because they went back to the Trump policy. But if they won, the day after they get into office, this country will go out of business because they're going to go to an energy policy that's not sustainable. Wind and different things, you're not going to have anything. And I know you're a big fan of the AI. And I have to say that AI, and this is shocking to me, but AI requires twice the energy that the country already produces for everything. So we're going to have to build a lot of energy if our country will be competitive with China, because that's our primary competitor for this on the AI. You're going to need a lot of electricity. You're going to need tremendous electricity, like almost double what we produce now for the whole country if you can believe it. Sure.

如果他们赢了，一旦上任，这个国家就会停业，因为他们会采用一种不可持续的能源政策。风能和其他各种东西，你什么都得不到。我知道你是人工智能的超级粉丝，我必须说，人工智能需要的能量是我们国家目前生产总量的两倍，这让我非常震惊。为了在这方面与中国竞争，我们将需要建造大量的能源，因为中国是我们的主要竞争对手。你需要大量的电力，几乎是我们现在全国生产电力的两倍，你能相信吗？当然了。

Well, just going back to this, the basic thing, which is that people try to make it sound complicated, but it's not. But inflation is caused by government overspending. Would you agree that we need to take a look at government's spending and have perhaps a government efficiency commission that just tries to make the spending sensible and so the country lives within its means, just like a person. The waste is incredible. I mean, I think it would be great to just have a government efficiency commission that takes a look at these things and just ensures that the taxpayer money, the taxpayers are harder and money is spent in a good way. And I'd be happy to help out on such a commission. I'd love it. If it were for them.

好的，回到这个基本问题，就是人们总是试图把问题复杂化，但其实并不复杂。通货膨胀是由政府过度支出引起的。你是否同意我们需要审视政府的支出，或许成立一个政府效率委员会，来确保支出合理，使国家收支平衡，就像一个人一样？浪费实在是太严重了。我认为，如果有一个政府效率委员会来检查这些问题，并确保纳税人的钱花得合理，那将是非常好的事情。我很乐意在这样的委员会中帮忙。如果有这样的委员会，我会非常高兴。

Well, you you're the greatest cutter. I mean, I look at what you do you walk in. You want to go on strike? I won't mention the name of the company, but they go on strike and you say, that's okay. You're all gone. You're all gone. So every one of you is gone. And you are the greatest. You would be very good. Oh, you would love it. But you know, if you look at our. Well, you have to be a good guy. Congratulations. Absolutely. I mean, I should probably say something about like, you know, maybe my views on, you know, climate change and oil and gas because I think it probably different for what most people would assume. Because my views are actually pretty, I think, moderate in this regard, which is that I don't think we should vilify the oil and gas industry and the people that have worked very hard in those industries to provide the necessary energy to support the economy. And if we were to stop using oil and gas right now, we would all be starving and the economy would collapse. So it's, you know, I don't think it's right to sort of vilify the oil and gas industry. And I, you know, the world has a certain demand for oil and gas and it's probably better if the United States provides that than than some other countries and it would help with prosperity in the US.

好吧，你真是个了不起的裁员高手。我是说，我看你做的事，你走进公司，想要罢工？我不会提公司名字，但他们罢工，而你说没关系，你们全都走人，全都走人。所以你们每一个人全都走人。而且你真是太厉害了，你会干得很棒的，哦，你会喜欢这种感觉的。但是你知道，如果你看看我们的表现，你得成为一个好人。恭喜你，绝对的。我的意思是，我可能还应该谈谈我的一些看法，比如关于气候变化和石油天然气，因为我认为这可能和大多数人的假设不同。因为在这个问题上，我的看法其实还算温和，我认为我们不应该妖魔化石油和天然气行业以及那些在这些行业里辛勤工作的工人们，为了支撑经济提供必要的能源。如果我们现在就停止使用石油和天然气，我们都会挨饿，经济会崩溃。所以，你知道的，我认为不应该妖魔化石油和天然气行业。而且，我觉得全世界对石油和天然气有一定的需求，如果是美国提供这些能源可能会比其他国家更好，还会有助于美国的繁荣。

And at the same time, obviously, my view is like we do over time want to move to a sustainable energy economy because eventually you do run out of, I mean, you run out of oil and gas. It's not there. It's not infinite. And there is there is some risk. I think it's not the risk is not as as high as, you know, a lot of people say it is with respect to global warming. But I think if you just keep increasing the cost of a million in the atmosphere long enough, eventually it actually simply gets uncomfortable to to breathe. People don't realize this. If you go to if you go past 1000 possible million of CO2, you start getting headaches and nausea. And so we're now in the sort of 400 range. We're adding, I think, about roughly two parts per million per year. So I mean, it still gives us. So what it means is like we still have quite a bit of time. But but so there's not like we don't need to rush and we don't need to like, you know, stop farmers from farming or, you know, for bad people from having stakes or basic stuff like that.

同时，显然，我的看法是我们确实希望逐步转向可持续的能源经济，因为最终石油和天然气会枯竭，它们不是无限的。而且这其中是有一些风险的。我认为这个风险不像很多人所说的那样高，与全球变暖相比，这个风险可能没有那么严重。但如果我们长期持续增加大气中的二氧化碳浓度，最终可能会使呼吸变得不舒服。很多人没有意识到这一点。如果二氧化碳浓度超过1000ppm（百万分之一），你会开始感到头痛和恶心。而现在我们大约在400ppm的范围内，每年大约增加2ppm左右。所以这意味着我们还有相当多的时间。因此，我们不需要匆忙采取行动，也不需要禁止农民耕种或禁止人们吃牛排等基本的事情。

Like like you leave the farmers alone. How crazy is that? Where I mean, you have farmers that are not allowed to farm anymore and have to get rid of their cattle and the whole whole world. Yeah, but it's largely taken its lead from us. I just say though, I've heard in terms of the fossil fuel, because even to create your electric car and create the electricity needed for the electric car, you know, fossil fuel is what really creates that at the generating plants. And you know, so you sort of can't get away from it at this moment. I mean, someday you might be able to. But I do hear we have anywhere from 100 to 500 years left. You know, much of it hasn't even been found yet.

就像你说的，不要干涉农民。这样有点疯狂，对吧？我的意思是，现在有些农民不能再务农了，还得把他们的牲畜处理掉。而这个情况发生在全球范围内，但主要是从我们这里开始的。不过，我听说在化石燃料方面，即使是制造电动车以及产生电动车所需的电力，发电厂还是依赖于化石燃料。所以，目前你基本上是无法完全摆脱化石燃料的。或许有一天我们能做到。但我听说我们还有100到500年的化石燃料储备，很多地方甚至还没有被发现。

Yeah, but there are. I mean, am I, my answer would be, you know, a little more aggressive than that. But it's not the sort of like we're all going to die in five years stuff. That's obviously BS. But I mean, my view is like, if you just look at sort of the post-4 million that increments every year, you know, you get sort of two or three post-4 million over a year of CO2. I mean, I think some of that it's problematic if it accelerates, if you start going from two or three to say five. And then there may be some situations where you get just a step change increase in the CO2.

是的，确实有这种情况。我是说，我的回答可能比这更激进一些。但并不是那种我们五年内都要完蛋的说法，那显然是胡说八道。我的看法是，如果你看看现在每年新增的400万吨以上的二氧化碳，（每年大概新增）两三次400万吨左右的二氧化碳排放。我认为如果这个速度加快，从每年新增两三次变成五次，那会是个问题。而且有些情况下，二氧化碳排放量可能会突然大幅增加。

And I think we don't want to get too close to a thousand PPM because like that's actually makes it uncomfortable to breathe. Like just existing in a thousand PPM CO2 is uncomfortable. That's like a, that's considered like an industrial hazard. Right? Just so, so it's, you know, that's actually stuck in headaches and stuff. So it's even without global warming, it's not it's not comfortable to live in. So you don't want to get too close to that. But I mean, I think we've got, I think we want to just move over like, and if, if, I don't know, 50 to 100 years from now, we're, we're, I don't know, mostly sustainable. I think that'll probably be okay. So it's not like the house is on fire immediately. But I think it is something we need to move towards. And on, you know, on balance is probably better to move there, faster than slower.

我觉得我们不想让二氧化碳浓度接近1000 PPM（百万分之一浓度），因为那样会让人呼吸不舒服。单单是在1000 PPM的二氧化碳环境中生存就很不舒适，这已经被认为是一种工业危害了，对吧？这么高的浓度会引发头痛等症状。所以即便不考虑全球变暖的因素，仅仅是这种环境也让人难以适应。因此，我们不要接近这种浓度。 但我认为，如果在未来50到100年内我们能够逐步实现大部分的可持续发展，那应该是可以接受的。所以情况并不是非常紧急，但我认为这是我们需要努力的方向。而且总体而言，向这个方向发展还是越快越好。

But but like I said, without vilifying the oil and gas industry and without causing hardship in the short term, I think this can be done with without, you know, people can still have, you know, a stake and they can still drive gas in cars. And this, you know, it's, it's okay. It's like, it's not, I don't think we should vilify people for it. But I think we should just, just generally lean in the direction of sustainability. And I actually think solar is going to be a majority of us energy generation in the future. And it's certainly trending that way.

但是，就像我说的，在不妖魔化石油和天然气行业，并且在不造成短期困难的情况下，我认为这是可以做到的。人们还是可以继续参与，他们仍然可以开汽油车。这是可以的。我们不应该因此而责备他们。但我认为我们应该总体上倾向于可持续发展。而且我实际上认为太阳能将在未来成为美国能源生产的主流。这显然正朝着这个方向发展。

And so you get the solar power, mind that with with with batteries. So because obviously the sun doesn't shine at night. And and they use that to charge the electric cars. And you have a long term sustainable solution. And you know, that's, that's what Tesla's trying to move things towards. And I think we've made a lot of progress and progress in that regard. But when you look at our cars, we'd like, we don't believe that environmentalism that caring about the environment should, should mean that you have to suffer. So we make sure that our cars are, are beautiful that they drive well, that they're fast, they're, you know, sexy.

因此，你可以利用太阳能，再加上电池的配置。因为显然太阳在夜晚是不发光的。他们用这种方式来给电动车充电，这样你就有了一个长期的可持续解决方案。这正是特斯拉一直在努力实现的目标。我认为我们在这方面已经取得了很多进展。但是，当你看我们的汽车时，我们不认为环保就意味着你必须受苦。因此，我们确保我们的汽车不仅美观、性能好、速度快，而且还很时尚。

I mean, they're, they're cool. In fact, literally, I mean, the sexy model S model three model X and Y spells out sexy is probably most expensive. But I, you know, I just, I don't know, like cheesy humor, you know, so. And, but I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm a big fan of like, let's have an inspiring future. And let's, let's work towards, you know, a better future. And, and we can do so without demonizing. Right. There's the, there's the bad side of nuclear, which is a nuclear war, very bad side. But there's, there's also, I think, nuclear electricity is under, right? And it's actually, you know, people have this fear of nuclear, nuclear electricity generation. But, but it's actually one of the safest forms of electricity generation.

我的意思是，它们都挺酷的。事实上，我的意思是，性感的Model S、Model 3、Model X和Model Y拼在一起就是“SEXY”，这可能是最贵的车型。不过，你知道的，我只是，不知道怎么说，像这种俗气的幽默。所以，然而，我还是个大粉丝，我喜欢有一个充满希望的未来。让我们一起努力，朝着一个更美好的未来前进。而且我们可以做到这一点，而不需要妖魔化任何事物。确实，核电有它的坏的一面，比如核战争，这是非常糟的一面。但我也认为，核电是被低估的。实际上，人们对核电发电有种恐惧，但它其实是最安全的发电方式之一。

It's just a huge misunderstanding. And if you look at the injuries and deaths, you know, caused by say, I mean, I'm not going to try to pick on coal mining, but just any kind of mining operation. And this was a certain number of injuries and deaths per year. You compare that to nuclear. Nuclear is actually way better. So it's underrated as a, as an electricity source. And I think it's, it's something that's worth reconsidering. But there's so much regulation that people can't get it done. So that, you know, maybe they'll have to change the name. The name is, it's a rough name. There are some areas like, like when you see what happened in the bad, the brand, the brand, we'll have to give it a good name. We'll name it after you or something.

这只是一个巨大的误会。你看，如果你观察一下由煤矿开采（我不是在特意针对煤矿开采）或其它任何形式的采矿操作所造成的伤亡人数，每年都有一定数量的伤亡。把这些与核能做个比较，实际上核能要好得多。因此，作为一种电力来源，核能是被低估了的。我认为这个值得重新考虑。但由于有太多的法规，人们很难推进核能项目。这么一来，可能需要换个名字。现在的名字有点难听。某些领域中，像当你看到某些不好的事情发生时，这个品牌、这个名字就会变得不太好。我们得起个好名字，也许可以用你的名字来命名。

You know, no, hey, it has a branding problem. You know, when you see what happened, if it's ever branding problem, when you see what happened in Japan, where they say you won't be able to go on the land for about 3000 years. Do you ever say that? And in Russia, where they had the problem where they, you know, there's a lot of bad things happened. And they have a problem. And they say that in 2000 years, people start to occupy the land again. You know, you realize it's pretty bad. But there's, but it's, it's actually not that bad. So like after Fukushima happened in Japan, like people were asking me in California, you know, are we worried about like a nuclear cloud coming from Japan? I'm like, no, that's crazy. It's actually, it's not even dangerous in Fukushima. I actually flew there and, and ate locally grown vegetables on TV to prove it. And I donated a solar water treatment, yeah, solar powered system for a water treatment plant. And yeah, but you haven't been feeling so well lately. And I'm worried about it. No, no, but I'm only getting a mind. You know, it's like, you know, Hiroshima and Nagasaki were bomb, but now they're like full cities again. So it's really not something that, you know, it's not as scary as people think, basically.

你知道，不是的，嘿，这是一个品牌形象问题。当你看到发生的事情，如果说这是一个品牌形象问题，那你就会明白日本发生了什么事，他们说在大约3000年内你都无法再到那片土地上去。而在俄罗斯，他们也有过问题，发生了很多糟糕的事情，他们说在2000年后人们才能再次占据那片土地。你知道，这让你意识到问题很严重。但实际上，它并没有那么糟糕。比如在日本福岛事件之后，加州的很多人问我，我们是否需要担心从日本飘来的核云。我说，那是疯了。事实上，即使在福岛也不是那么危险。我甚至飞到那里，在电视上吃了当地种植的蔬菜来证明这一点。我还捐赠了一套太阳能驱动的水处理系统。但最近你感觉不是很好，我有些担心。不不，我只是考虑到了这些。比如广岛和长崎被轰炸过，但现在它们又是繁荣的城市。所以，基本上没大家想象的那么可怕。

But you know, I'd just like to note to people listening, like I've not been very political before. And I've just, if you look at my track, my record, it's I've actually been, I'm not like, I'm sorry, try to paint me as like a far right guy, which is absurd because I'm like making electric vehicles and, you know, solar and batteries helping those environment. And, and, and I actually, I, I, you know, I supported Obama. I stood in line for six hours to shake Obama's hand when, when he was running for president. And, you know, so it's not like I'm like some sort of bad in the world, long term republic. I'm actually, I call myself, you know, historically a moderate Democrat. And, but now I feel like we're really at a critical juncture for the country. And, you know, I, I think a lot of people thought, you know, that Biden administration would be a moderate administration, but it's not. And obviously, we're just going to see it. And even further left, administration with with, that's, that's my honest opinion. I mean, her dad is literally, I mean, she was brought up as a, as an actual dad is a, is a Marxist economist. That's, you can Google it. I mean, it's not a, we're not making this up, you know, that's how she was brought up. So, and, and we just, we want to have a future that is prosperous. And, and I think we're just at this critical juncture. And, and it, I think this is a case of the America is, is kind of at a fork in the road. And, and I think it will take it will take it for the path to like you are the path to prosperity. And I think Kamala is the opposite. Then that's my, I mean, that's my honest opinion. I'm gonna, I'm gonna get attacked like crazy. And, you know, I've also experienced quite a bit of a low fair myself. And, but I'm just just trying to tell people my honest opinion. And, and I haven't been active and really active in politics before. And I'm just trying to point out that my track record historically has been moderate, if not moderate slightly left. And, and so this is the people out there who are in the moderate camp to say, I think you should support Donald Trump or president. And, and I think it's actually a very important junction in the road. And, and we're deep travel if, if, if, if it goes the other way.

但是你知道的，我只是想对听众说一下，我之前并不是很关注政治。如果你看看我的记录，会发现实际上我并不是极右派。有人想把我描绘成极右派，这真是荒谬，因为我在制造电动车、太阳能电池和帮助环境的电池。而且，我其实是支持过奥巴马的。当他竞选总统时，我排了六个小时的队只是为了握他的手。所以我并不是一个很坏的共和党人，我其实一直以来都称自己是一个温和的民主党人。 但现在，我感觉我们国家处于一个关键的转折点。我认为很多人曾以为拜登政府会是一个温和的政府，但事实并非如此。而且显然，我们看到的是一个更加左倾的政府，这是我的真实看法。她的父亲实际上是一个马克思主义经济学家，你可以谷歌一下，这并不是我们编造的，她就是在这种背景下长大的。 我们希望未来是繁荣的，而现在我们到了一个关键的转折点。我认为美国现在正处于一个十字路口，我认为未来的道路将决定我们是走向繁荣还是相反的方向。而我认为卡玛拉·哈里斯代表了相反的方向，这是我的真实看法。我知道这么说会招致很多攻击，我自己也经历了不少不公平待遇，但我只是试图向大家说出我的真实想法。 我之前在政治上并不活跃，现在只是想指出，我的历史记录是温和的，甚至有点偏左。所以我只是对那些在温和阵营中的人说，我觉得你们应该支持唐纳德·特朗普当总统。我认为现在是一个非常重要的转折点，如果走错了方向，我们将会面临很大的困境。

Welcome to electrified. It's your host Dylan Loomis. Quick shout out to my newest patron, Hans B. Thank you for choosing to support the channel. We'll zip through a few news items so they don't get lost in the shuffle with the Elon and Trump interview. There's been so much disinformation out there. I was finally able to find the truth. So far, Elon has spent about $21 million supporting Trump and the proper voting protocols. Reminder that $45 million per month number everybody's still throwing around is still very wrong.

欢迎来到 Electrified。我是主持人 Dylan Loomis。首先向我最新的赞助者 Hans B 致以诚挚的感谢，谢谢你选择支持这个频道。我们来快速浏览几条新闻，以免它们在埃隆和特朗普的采访中被忽略。最近有很多错误信息，但我终于找到了事实。目前，埃隆已经为支持特朗普和正确的投票程序花费了大约2100万美元。需要提醒的是，大家仍然在提的每月4500万美元的数字是完全错误的。

A few weeks back, we were talking about Tesla energy and the UPO's unsatisfied performance obligations. Well, as it turns out, the rebellion air team reached out to Tesla IR and they actually got a response. A long story short, the best way to think about these UPO's that are roughly $5 billion for Tesla right now. It's really just a backlog of orders with a contract of one year or more. But the main clarification to make here, there was some speculation that these UPO's could carry between 90 and 100% margins for Tesla, mainly because the cost of goods sold were already recognized.

几周前，我们讨论了特斯拉能源和未完成履约义务（UPO）。事实证明，Rebellion Air 团队联系了特斯拉的投资者关系部门，他们确实得到了回应。简单来说，理解这些UPO的最佳方式是，目前特斯拉大约有50亿美元的UPO，这实际上只是积压了一年或以上的订单。但需要澄清的一点是，有人猜测这些UPO可能为特斯拉带来90%到100%的利润率，主要是因为销售成本已经被确认。

But Tesla IR has now said that's not the case, so when these UPO's do actually hit the financials, they're not going to be carrying 100% margins, they'll be more in line with the regular ongoing margins of Tesla energy. Thus, the easiest way to think about this for the future, the UPO balance is really just a backlog of orders for Tesla's megapack. And credit to the rebalionaire team for reaching out and getting that information.

但是，特斯拉投资者关系部门现在表示情况并非如此，因此当这些销售订单真的反映在财务报表上时，它们不会带来100%的利润率，而是与特斯拉能源部门的一般利润率相似。所以，未来最简单的理解方式是，这些未处理订单余额其实只是特斯拉Megapack电池储能系统的订单积压。值得赞扬的是，rebalionaire团队联系了特斯拉并获取了这一信息。

You Canadians that are still awaiting your Model 3 performance delivery, you may be getting it from either China or now Fremont as well. There were some fears out there that the cars coming from Shanghai would have a bit worse performance because they get the 79kWh pack from LG, where the Model 3 performance from Fremont has historically been getting the 82kWh pack from Panasonic. However, drive Tesla Canada is reporting that even Fremont is now going to be using the 79kWh pack from LG for these cars built at Fremont that are being sent to Canada.

你们这些仍在等待Model 3性能版交付的加拿大人，您的车可能会来自中国，也可能来自弗里蒙特。有人担心来自上海的车辆性能会稍差一些，因为它们配备的是LG的79千瓦时电池，而佛里蒙特生产的Model 3性能版一直使用的是松下的82千瓦时电池。不过，Drive Tesla Canada 报道说，甚至弗里蒙特现在也将使用LG的79千瓦时电池，生产这些将被运往加拿大的车辆。

So you Canadians, whether you get your Model 3 performance from China or Fremont, they're going to have the same battery pack. Holmars was asking if 12.5.1.3 will be available on hardware 3 as soon as Elon mentioned, to which Elon said the team is working on it, this will be a different release number. The 10 day timeline has come and gone right now, I would say it's looking like about two weeks. 24 7 Tesla put out a quick video showing the updated progress on Tesla's diner in Hollywood, and as you can see the exterior is now being finished with steel.

所以你们加拿大人，无论你们从中国还是弗里蒙特（Fremont）获得Model 3的高性能版，它们都会配备相同的电池组。Holmars问到，当Elon提到的时候，12.5.1.3版本是否会在硬件3上推出，对此Elon表示团队正在努力，这将是一个不同的版本号。目前来看，10天的时间已经过去了，我认为大约还需要两周时间。24 7 Tesla发布了一个快速视频，展示了特斯拉在好莱坞的餐厅的最新进展，正如你所看到的，现在外部已经用钢材完成了施工。

Yes, it looks futuristic, but it also makes it look a little retro as well, which I think is what they're going for. The local news in Malaysia is reporting that a representative from Tesla will be meeting with Malaysia's Ministry of Investment on August 22nd to discuss Tesla's investment plans in the country. All we get for now is that an official statement would be released following the meeting with Tesla.

是的，它看起来很有未来感，但也带有一点复古的感觉，我觉得这正是他们想要的效果。马来西亚的本地新闻报道说，特斯拉的一位代表将在8月22日与马来西亚投资部会面，讨论特斯拉在该国的投资计划。目前我们只知道，在与特斯拉的会面后，将会发布一份正式声明。

On Tesla's order, configurator for the Cybertruck, the range extender is $16,000, but now they're saying production plan to begin in early 2025. The expectation is the range extender was going to take the all-wheel drive version from 320 miles up to 470, and the cyber beast from 301 miles up to 440. Which means the extender could add up to 150 miles of range.

在特斯拉的订单配置中，Cybertruck 的续航扩展器价格为 16000 美元，但他们现在说生产计划将在 2025 年初开始。预期续航扩展器会将全轮驱动版本的续航从 320 英里提升到 470 英里，而 Cyber​​ Beast 模型的续航从 301 英里提升到 440 英里。这意味着续航扩展器可以增加多达 150 英里的续航。

In a recent interview talking about electric mobility, Oliver Bloom said the technology is far superior to the combustion engine with the right electricity mix, it significantly contributes to climate protection. He said what's needed is binding legislation that clearly favors electric mobility. The auto industry is long cyclical and needs binding regulation, so not this back and forth that's expected right now in America. And when he was asked about partnering with X-Pang and Rivian to use their technology, he said we can't do everything ourselves, but it's crucial to have 100% access to and management of our own architecture.

在最近一次关于电动出行的采访中，Oliver Bloom 表示，电动技术在正确的电力搭配下远胜于内燃机，并且对气候保护具有显著贡献。他说，现在需要的是明确支持电动出行的法律法规。汽车行业周期长且需要稳定的法规，而不是像目前在美国的那种来回摇摆。 当被问到是否会与X-Pang和Rivian合作使用他们的技术时，他说我们不能什么都自己做，但完全掌控并管理我们自己的架构是至关重要的。

Well, I'm not quite sure what he means about architecture because the whole Rivian partnership is really Rivian providing its entire electrical architecture. But this is a clear admission they don't have the talent or the drive to do everything themselves. Which means in the long run, they're going to be giving up all of that margin to somebody else. Rivian just held an event in Pasadena and the employees said that the Rivian induction stove is going to be out by the end of the month and it'll cost $1,400. Waymo said starting today, our employees will also have access to fully autonomous rides on San Francisco Freeways, which in some cases will result in cutting down ride times by about half going from 40 minutes down to 20. Waymo may not be setting the whole world on fire, but they are indeed making steady progress.

好吧，我不太确定他所说的“架构”到底是什么意思，因为整个Rivian的合作实际上是由Rivian提供其完整的电气架构的。这显然是承认他们没有足够的人才或动力去独立完成所有事情。这意味着从长远来看，他们将把所有的利润拱手让给别人。Rivian刚刚在帕萨迪纳举办了一场活动，员工们透露Rivian的感应炉将在月底推出，价格为1,400美元。Waymo表示，从今天起，我们的员工也可以在旧金山的高速公路上使用全自动驾驶服务，有时可以将行车时间从40分钟缩短到20分钟。Waymo或许没有引起世界轰动，但他们确实在稳步前进。

There's some ridiculous reporting out there and disinformation about the cyber truck and the more affordable models just know it's all nonsense just because the more affordable vehicle isn't available to configure right now, does not mean it's been canceled. For now, it's still just the foundation series all wheel drive and cyber beast. Any more affordable models will be coming in the future.

有一些关于Cybertruck和更实惠车型的荒谬报道和虚假信息。请知道，这些都是无稽之谈。仅仅因为现在不能配置更实惠的车型，并不意味着它们被取消了。目前只有基础系列的全轮驱动和Cyber Beast车型。更实惠的车型将会在未来推出。

In Texas, Ford and TXU Energy have just started a new free EV miles program that offers Ford customers the opportunity to charge their vehicle at home entirely for free. Ford EV customers will get a credit on their energy bill for all home energy used for vehicle charging during the free charging hours, which are between 7pm and 1pm the next day all year long, which is a window of 18 hours. But if for some reason the customer can't charge or set the charge for that time, they will pay a simple fixed rate, the same rate as the rest of their home.

在德克萨斯州，福特和TXU能源公司刚刚推出了一项新的免费电动车里程计划，为福特客户提供完全免费的家庭充电机会。根据该计划，福特电动车用户在规定的免费充电时间内（从晚上7点到第二天下午1点，一共18个小时）为车辆充电，所用的电费将会以信用额度的形式返还到他们的能源账单上。如果客户因为某些原因不能在这段时间内充电，他们只能按家庭电费的标准缴费，这个费用是一个简单的固定费率。

The program allows these Ford customers to earn these bill credits regardless of what hardware they use to charge their vehicle. Both companies are highlighting the benefits of owning an EV and both companies are encouraging users to charge their EVs at off peak hours, which of course is better for the grid. As expected, BYD is already making work around plans for these EU tariffs. They plan to leverage the Turkish EU agreement to export cars into the EU through Turkey.

这个项目允许这些福特客户无论使用什么设备为他们的车辆充电，都可以赚取账单积分。两家公司都在强调拥有电动汽车的好处，并鼓励用户在非高峰时段为电动车充电，这当然对电网更有利。正如预期，比亚迪已经开始制定应对这些欧盟关税的计划。他们计划利用土耳其与欧盟的协议，通过土耳其将汽车出口到欧盟。

In Queensland, we have another battery storage project entering construction. This a 1,200 megawatt hour project, which marks the start of the transformation of the major coal center into a green energy hub. The stand well battery will use 324 Tesla Megapack 2XLs. And it's one of eight major battery projects now under construction in Queensland.

在昆士兰，我们又有一个电池储能项目进入建设阶段。这是一个1200兆瓦时的项目，标志着主要煤炭中心向绿色能源枢纽转型的开始。这个项目将使用324个特斯拉Megapack 2XL电池。这是昆士兰目前在建的八个大型电池项目之一。

It is nice to see the top selling EVs in Europe year to date for this year are still the Model Y and Model 3 by a wide margin, but we have to remember it's really Tesla against itself. And in that competition, Tesla is actually losing so far this year. It's just that the rest of the competition really is still trying to figure it out. I just think too many people see these charts and then start sharing the narrative that Tesla is killing it in Europe this year and zooming out looking at the big picture and what they did last year, that's just not accurate.

今年到目前为止，欧洲销量最高的电动车仍然是Model Y和Model 3，差距很大，这的确令人欣慰。但我们必须记住，特斯拉实际上是在与自己竞争。而在这种竞争中，特斯拉今年到目前为止其实并没有那么出色。只不过，其他竞争对手还在努力摸索。我认为有太多人看了这些销量图表后，就开始传播特斯拉今年在欧洲表现很出色的说法。如果我们从整体上来看，以及对比他们去年的表现，这种说法是不准确的。

Tesla stock closed the day at $197.49 down 1.25% while the Nasdaq was up 0.21%. It was another very low volume day for Tesla trading about 55 million shares below the average volume the past 30 days. Heads up on electrified scheduling this week. There will be no video from me on Thursday or Friday as I have a golf trip with my family through the weekend.

特斯拉股票收盘价为197.49美元，下跌了1.25%，而纳斯达克指数则上涨了0.21%。特斯拉的交易量再次非常低，仅有5500万股，低于过去30天的平均交易量。本周的安排会有所变化，提醒大家注意。由于我周末将和家人一起去打高尔夫，所以周四和周五将没有更新的视频。

So two more videos this week Tuesday and Wednesday. Hope you guys have a wonderful day. Please like the video if you did. You can find me on X-linked below and a huge thank you to all of my Patreon supporters.
