It’s got a lot of new things to them

800v power train

Newer 4680 cells

~85% custom chip controllers (up from 60s on Y)

48v power electronics is instead of 12v, which is fairly new to everyone and the supply chain isn’t as robust as the 12v one, but long term it’s good for industry.

Folding the stainless steel at scale

9000T press, biggest one made

The wheels that can turn on front and back

I’m sure there’s more they didn’t tell us.

It went from being a weird vehicle (love or hate it) to a new technology platform.
