Tesla's Q2 results show worsening profitability despite higher revenue, leading to a 12% stock decline and delays in the mass production of its Cybercab, Semi, and Megapack 3. Amid these challenges and rising competition, CEO Elon Musk has publicly raised the possibility of a merger with SpaceX, citing increasing overlaps in their business areas.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Electric Vehicles.

◆ The Wire takeaway

Tesla's car business can no longer carry its valuation alone. A merger with SpaceX creates a new kind of rival that combines industrial hardware with a unified AI stack, which you may now have to compete against.
