This has risen through the years, with the Model Y being 61% internally designed controllers and the Cybertruck going up to 85%.
Key Points:
- This has risen through the years, with the Model Y being 61% internally designed controllers and the Cybertruck going up to 85%.
- Tesla's 2023 Investor Day presentation stated that the next-gen vehicle will have 100% internally designed controllers.
- One of the benefits of bringing controller design completely in-house is that it gives Tesla total autonomy over the design of its wiring harness.
- Bringing controller design in-house allows Tesla to move from a centralized control architecture to a localized one.
