Tesla CEO Elon Musk says the company can build a $25,000 self-driving car within three years.

At Tesla's 2020 shareholder's meeting, Tesla CEO Elon Musk said that the company's vehicle deliveries in 2020 would be up 30% to 40% from last year, a range that encompasses its previous prediction of 500,000 cars delivered this year.

Musk, who is well-known for exuberant promises, also predicted the company will be able to make a $25,000 full self-driving car within three years. Musk said he expects vehicle deliveries to increase by 30 to 40 percent over last year, when the companyof 367,500 vehicles. The new guidance from Musk implies deliveries of between 477,750 and 514,500 cars, a range that encompasses the company's previously stated goal to deliver half a million cars in 2020.

Musk also said the battery and manufacturing advances Tesla is working on will soon lead to lower prices, which will be vital for getting more electric vehicles on the road. "About 3 years from now, we're confident we can make a very compelling $25,000 electric vehicle that's also fully autonomous," he claimed. Musk is notorious, however, for being overly optimistic with his predictions.

No doubt that Tesla’s technology is very innovative and cool, I just wish that their cars (other than the roadster) can look a little better IMO.

GM backs a mini electric car made in China for $4000 w. 13 Kwh battery pack. Sold 15,000 cars in August in China last month. Outsold Tesla M3 at 11,800 units sold in August

3 years to build a $25,000 self-driving car.. How long will it take to build 2 of them?

Imagine Apple making announcements for tech that will be developed in 2 to 3 years at their Apple Event rather than introducing new versions and inventions.
