Redpoint, Tesla is doing great on it's own? I have read the body is heavy because they use too many body panels that need to be joined. If they used fewer panels it would be cheaper and easier. We have had those super exciting discussions of panel gaps. Why not borrow from industry experts for just the body? They have a revolutionary drivetrain, why reinvent the body?
