Elon Musk interviews with CNBC and All Things Digital.
Two important announcements have just been made by Elon Musk during an interview with CNBC:
- Tesla Motors will be profitable by the end of the year despite repaying the federal loan.
- In 3 or 4 years, Tesla Motors will market a car that is half the price of the Model S (about €30,000).
By emphasizing the customer experience, the CEO announced that 25% of prospects who test drive the Model S end up buying it, which is an excellent ratio made possible by the praise the Press gives to Tesla, rightfully so.
Feel free to also watch the interview (in English) with Elon Musk at the All Things Digital conference.
