The billionaire entrepreneur said Tesla “dropped the ball badly” on Model X’s production ramp-up. Musk added that it was “idiotic to stop production” of the old Model X in Dec 2020 when there was still “plenty of demand!”
When asked for a timeline on the production ramp for the refreshed Model X, Musk did not provide any further details but said in a separate tweet that the luxury crossover is an “extremely difficult” and the “most complex” passenger car ever and that the interior trim is the only limiting factor.
