The production timeline

The closing discussion brings the presentation back to two aims: a vehicle with flight capability and a product built around manual driving. The host asks when it can reach customers.

Musk answers that production will begin in 2028, and the presenters repeat the year in a lighthearted exchange. This is a production target stated in the recording. The conversation does not give a particular month for customer deliveries.

The team then says there is one more demonstration, after which the recording continues into the final display and outro. This follows the presentation’s overall structure: show extreme maneuvers first, explain the systems behind them, and then discuss how they might become a car for drivers.

What to take from this chapter

The date stated in this segment is entry into production in 2028; a customer delivery month is not specified.
