Evidence-graded claims from the Tesla deep report
Tesla FSD operates at a supervised-autonomous level, requiring active human intervention during driving tasks on a regular basis
Tesla's own official disclaimer confirms active driver supervision is required at all times, and an independent community user report corroborates 1–2 interventions per week in daily use — though the latter is a single anecdote [4][5].
from Tesla deep report →Tesla's Megapack energy storage achieved a record deployment of 14.2 GWh in Q4 2025
Energy-Storage.News and Utility Dive — both independent trade publications — independently reported the 14.2 GWh Q4 2025 record deployment figure [8][9].
from Tesla deep report →Tesla's energy storage deployments fell sharply in Q1 2026 — down 38% sequentially and 15% year-over-year to 8.8 GWh — with revenue declining ~37% sequentially
Energy-Storage.News reported the specific Q1 2026 figures (8.8 GWh deployments, $2.408B revenue) citing Tesla financials, corroborated by Yahoo Finance's reporting on the Q1 2026 production and deployments release [7][8].
from Tesla deep report →Tesla FSD is available at $99/month subscription or $8,000 one-time purchase, with prices expected to rise as capabilities improve
The $99/month price is confirmed by Tesla's own commerce page and independently corroborated by MotorTrend's reporting on Musk's public statements about rising prices; the $8,000 one-time price is corroborated by both MotorTrend and Reddit community sources — though future price increases remain unverified vendor forecasts [1][4][5].
from Tesla deep report →
Tesla's energy storage business gross margin reached a quarterly record of over 39.5% in Q1 2026
This figure was stated by Tesla's CFO on an earnings call — a vendor source — and has not been independently verified by a third-party auditor or analyst report cited in the dossier [8].
from Tesla deep report →Tesla vehicles exhibit elevated long-term reliability issues, with an estimated 30–40% of vehicles experiencing problems within the first five years
Multiple independent Reddit community sources consistently report elevated defect and service rates, but all evidence comes from self-selected online communities with inherent reporting bias, and no independent third-party reliability study (e.g., J.D. Power, Consumer Reports) is cited in the dossier [11][12][13][14][15].
from Tesla deep report →
Tesla's 2026 full-year energy storage deployment will exceed the 2025 total
This is a forward-looking forecast stated solely by Tesla's CFO on an earnings call; Q1 2026 already showed a steep 38% sequential and 15% year-over-year decline, and no independent analyst or third-party source in the dossier corroborates the full-year outlook [8].
