Elon Musk sought to reassure Tesla Inc. employees that despite “rocky
moments,” they should “hang onto” their stock, in an unannounced all-hands
meeting Thursday in Austin, Texas, which the billionaire chief executive
streamed live on his social media network X.
“If you read the news, it feels like Armageddon,” he told employees during
the meeting, which lasted past 10 p.m. local time. “I can’t walk past a TV
without seeing a Tesla on fire. I understand if you don’t want to buy our
product, but you don’t have to burn it down.”
The Federal Bureau of Investigation has been investigating a number of
incidents where Tesla charging stations and dealerships have been damaged,
including fires in Las Vegas, Kansas City and Missouri.
The vandalism follows a growing backlash against Musk’s role in the Trump
administration, with sales down and the automaker’s showrooms and
supercharging stations at the center of protests.
Meanwhile, shares in Tesla have plunged more than 40% this year, giving up
gains from a stock surge that followed President Donald Trump’s inauguration.
Tesla sales are typically slow in the first quarter, but sales and shipments
have dropped precipitously in key markets including Europe and China as Musk
faces political pushback. Tesla paused production on the Model Y line earlier
in the year to prepare for a refreshed version of its most popular vehicle.
The company is also expected to launch new, more affordable EVs in the first
half of 2025, but has given little detail.
Trump was even moved to pledge to buy his own Tesla, bringing a parade of the
EVs to the South Lawn of the White House. On Thursday, Commerce Secretary
Howard Lutnick went on Fox News and urged viewers to buy shares in Musk’s
carmaker. “It’ll never be this cheap again,” Lutnick said, in an
appearance that prompted questions over whether Lutnick violated federal
conflict of interest rules.
“There are times when there are rocky moments, a little bit of stormy
weather but I’m here to tell you the future is bright and exciting,” Musk
said during the all-hands meeting.
Musk, who has been increasingly betting Tesla’s future on robotics and
autonomy, said the company aims to scale production of its future autonomous,
pedal less, and steering wheel-less Cybercab to “new heights.”
Dan Ives, a Wedbush Securities analyst and longtime Musk proponent, said the
meeting was a “first step for Musk to show he is going to lead Tesla through
this tumultuous period.”
Ives this week issued a rare rebuke to Musk, urging the billionaire to pull
back from the Trump administration and refocus on Tesla. He warned that the
brand damage has escalated into a “tornado crisis moment for Musk and Tesla.
”
Musk during the all-hands also mentioned an updated timeline for the humanoid
Optimus robot, saying it would be available outside of internal use as early
as the second half of 2026, with the first sales going to Tesla employees.
The company previously had said Tesla aimed to have the robots available to
other companies next year, and internally this year.
When asked by an employee about whether he would get into aviation, Musk said
it’s something he’s considered. “I’ve thought about aircraft designs for
a long time,” he said, musing on the creation of an eVTOL, an electric
vertical take-off and landing. “Maybe we’ll do that.”
马斯克在德州奥斯汀举行的特斯拉全员会议中，试图安抚员工情绪，尽管特斯拉股价今年
已下跌超过 40%，他仍鼓励大家“坚持持有股票”，并强调公司未来依然“光明且令人兴
奋”。
他指出媒体过度渲染特斯拉负面新闻，如起火事件，并提到近期多起针对特斯拉充电站与
展示中心的纵火与破坏行为，FBI 正在调查相关案件。
这些行为与马斯克支持川普引发的政治反弹有关，影响特斯拉在欧洲和中国等重要市场的
销售表现。
此外，特斯拉先前暂停 Model Y 生产线以准备新版本，并预计 2025 年上半年推出更平
价电动车。马斯克也提到未来无方向盘、无踏板的自驾车“Cybercab”将扩大生产。
对于特斯拉的人形机器人 Optimus，他预测最快 2026 年下半年将向员工销售，并于之后
推向市场。
Wedbush 分析师 Dan Ives 表示，这场会议是马斯克试图带领特斯拉度过危机的第一步，
但也呼吁他应减少政治介入，专注公司营运。
马斯克最后也透露曾考虑开发电动垂直起降飞机（eVTOL），可能未来会涉足航空领域。
