Tesla Loses Two Model S Executives Before Sedan Makes Debut; Shares Slump
http://mobile.bloomberg.com/news/2012-01-13/tesla-loses-two-model-s-executives-before-sedan-makes-debut-shares-slump?category=%2Fnews%2Fmostread%2F
Tesla Motors Inc. (TSLA), the U.S. electric-car maker, slid 19 percent after the company said both its chief engineer and director of chassis engineering for the Model S luxury car have left just months before the rechargeable sedan goes on sale.
Peter Rawlinson, Palo Alto, California-based Tesla’s vice president and chief engineer, and Nick Sampson, who supervised vehicle and chassis engineering, departed this month, Ricardo Reyes, a company spokesman, said in an e-mailed statement.
“Having completed conceptual and design engineering work on Model S, Peter has decided to step away to tend to personal matters in the U.K.,” Reyes said. Sampson had “fully transitioned” off the Model S at the time of his departure, Reyes said without elaborating.
Tesla, recipient of a $465 million U.S. loan to build its rechargeable models at a plant in Fremont, California, plans to begin building and selling Model S cars by mid-year. The company last month said initial versions, able to travel as far as 300 miles per charge, will sell for as much as $92,400 before a $7,500 tax credit.
“It may be for personal reasons, but it doesn’t look good,” said Jim Hall, principal of 2953 Analytics Inc., an automotive consulting firm in Birmingham, Michigan. “And for Tesla, looks are very important at this point.”
Replacements Named
Tesla tumbled to $22.79 at the close in New York, the biggest slide since June 29, 2010.
Jerome Guillen, formerly an engineer with Daimler AG (DAI), will assume Rawlinson’s duties and Tesla hired a former Volkswagen AG executive, Eric Bach, Elon Musk, Tesla’s chief executive officer, said in an e-mailed statement.
Bach “was head of small-vehicle programs at VW and has a lot of high-volume expertise, to help in the final stretch of bringing Model S into production,” Musk said. “Eric reports to Jerome.”
Rawlinson, a former chief engineer at U.K.-based sports-car maker Group Lotus Plc and head of vehicle engineering at consultancy Corus Automotive, joined Tesla in 2009.
Huge Short attack on TSLA or someone selling - Just got some $23.50s after-hours
i'm sure some folks here are happy to see this :P Cheers!
GO TSLA
I understand you detest this company, we can leave it at that no problem sir.
Multi-millions in one block by most officers would say something, but these sales by the CFO here are nothing to get fluffed about imo. Hell, we see larger retail sales daily.
Take a look at a complete share selling machine - AAPL - All that company does is sell shares hah.
Most importantly, Perhaps you missed the $60 million USD buys by the CEO and Kohler June 2011 at $28.76. I'd imagine they bought that much for a reason, we'll see in due time. Cheers
2011-06-08 Kohler Herbert Purchase 637,475 28.76 18,333,781
2011-06-08 Musk Elon Purchase 1,416,000 28.76 40,724,160
ok, first of all "ALL" is ridiculous as we know not everyone is going to be "in the know" or smart enoungh to sell or just plain greedy. Secondly, here's your "multimillions" :
http://www.insider-monitor.com/trading/cik1318605.html
Not agreed in the least. I could care less until I see multi-million dollar blocks being sold by ALL officers. CFO's are notorious for selling air shares right and left.
I love me some TSLA!
'This ain no penny stock yo!'
That's somewhat true with board approval, comp package etc. You're missing the point here. It's not the 5k shares he dribbles out, it's the fact he is SELLING......
Never a good sign when the CFO is selling almost all his shares, agreed? Total lack of confidence any way you slice it. I will say again, the huge short position is holding this overvalued piglet up and nothing more
Bro CFO can get as many free shares as he likes that's a fact. They can give themselves shares for nothing. The small lots he may be selling are not going to affect this in the least. Cheers
GO TSLA let's see that $27.90 area stick hard
he's not buying..... And he doesn't have anymore to sell (unless you count 900 shares).
Yoz, as well 27.60 breaks here we could see a nice push to 27.75! GO TSLA!
Hah not in the least, CFO is selling chump change at these prices. Goodluck
CFO is selling almost all he gets. Is this a concern for the longs here?
http://ih.advfn.com/p.php?pid=nmona&article=50620257
It's been quiet here lately, folks getting filled at $27/28 should be ready for the real deal come end of quarter. Cheers!
GO TSLA!
TSLA@$28.00, GACR@$.89 & EVCA@.0001 - Christmas 2012 might come early?
Just drove by the Tsla plant. Parking lots empty. They are very close to Solyndra, coincidence? doubt it
RAWRRRR end of day TSLA. Hold the fort! :P $28.02 kiss give it to us!
Yes sir, i've been scoring some $26's here on the low. Morgan Stanley's downgrade playing effect here in my opinion. Shall pass like gas. Cheers!
GO TSLA!
Tesla Sets Prices and Options of 2012 Model S Battery Sedans
http://www.teslamotors.com/blog/model-s-update-pricing-and-options
December 20, 2011
Model S Update: Pricing and Options
By George Blankenship, Vice President, Worldwide Sales and Ownership Experience
We’re 10 days away from 2012. Around the office, we’re calling it The Year of Model S.
In anticipation of what is sure to be the most exciting year in Tesla’s history, we’re pleased to announce final pricing and options for United States reservation holders. This pricing will be in effect for all current US reservation holders. Due to volatility in currency rates around the world, we are not able to announce pricing outside the United States at this time. We expect to announce pricing about six months prior to the start of deliveries in those areas.
There have been a lot of rumors about price increases lately. I'm happy to say that all Model S pricing remains unchanged, including the basic version with the 40 kWh battery at the price we announced in 2009 of $49,900 after federal tax credits. $49,900 includes our game changing 17" Touchscreen, 19" Wheels and a Universal Mobile Connector with three adapters that will allow you to charge at home and on the road. This is an incredible car at an incredible price.
We will also stick to other commitments we made earlier this year regarding delivery of an 85 kWh battery in mid-2012, a 60 kWh battery about three months later and the 40 kWh battery around the end of the year. We are very proud of our battery technology and will offer warranties up to 8 years with unlimited mileage. That's another industry first from Tesla.
The Tesla team has worked extremely hard over the past three years to create a car that will far exceed your expectations and set a new benchmark for innovation and excellence in the automotive world. With the Model S, our aim was to create the best car in the world, not simply the best electric car. We believe we have achieved this goal.
In support of that goal, we have developed options that allow you to create a car that is perfect for your needs. Perfect for the way you see your car. We start with an all glass panoramic roof beyond what what you've experienced in any other car that is as close as you can get to a year round convertible. Add foldaway rear facing third row seats and your Model S becomes the only car in the neighborhood that kids want to ride in. For the music lover, we have a stereo that will knock your socks off. And we have put together a Tech Package that will take the most innovative car ever produced to the next level.
Speaking of going to the next level, Model S Performance accelerates from 0 to 60 in 4.4 seconds, faster than a Porsche 911 Carrera. It includes a Nappa Leather interior, exterior carbon fiber accents, Active Air Suspension and high performance tires and wheels. That's the way Tesla spells Performance. With an incredibly low center of gravity, Sport Tuned Traction Control and a high performance drive inverter, your favorite place to drive will be first in line at every red light. The Tesla Model S Performance Sedan will be available at start of production. Fasten your seat belt!
In order to make Pricing and Options as clear and easy to understand as possible, we are launching a new webpage today. We have included everything from Battery Specs to examples of the cool things you can do with Active Air Suspension. And don't forget to check out all the Charging Options at the bottom of the page. I'm not going to spill the beans too much in this post, but great things are about to happen when it comes to charging during cross country travel. More to come on that later...
In the meantime, thank you all for your continued support of Tesla. We appreciate everything you have done to help us get where we are today, and look forward to returning the favor by delivering the most exciting car you will ever own. Together let's bring a whole new meaning to the words Plug 'n Play!
Happy Holidays everyone. I can't wait for next year!
Playbook game plan for TSLA on 12/16/2011
Here's our thoughts:
The man to see about a job at Tesla = US JOBS
http://www.mercurynews.com/business/ci_19501138?IADID=Search-www.mercurynews.com-www.mercurynews.com
As millions of Americans desperately search for jobs, Tesla Motors (TSLA)' Arnnon Geshuri is racing to fill some. He's the point man for a company on a hiring spree, looking for top-flight engineers, vehicle technicians, sales experts and even an executive chef.
Tesla is ramping up to manufacture its all-electric Model S sedan at the former NUMMI plant, now renamed the Tesla Factory, in Fremont. It currently has 1,400 employees worldwide, a figure expected to roughly double by the end of 2012 and double again by the end of 2013.
"We're going to have hundreds of openings at the Tesla Factory," Geshuri said in an interview at Tesla's Palo Alto headquarters. "We're going to bring manufacturing back to California, and it's going to stay."
But landing a job at Tesla is not easy -- it's looking for the best of the best.
"Do you question tradition and constantly think of ways to improve status quo? Do you thrive in environments where brilliance is common and challenge is the norm?" its website asks. "Are you excited by challenge because you're among the best in your field? If so, you'd be in good company at Tesla Motors."
Geshuri, 42, has a track record for assembling great teams and putting people to work. His reputation as a Silicon Valley legend in the realm of staffing and recruiting was cemented at Google (GOOG), where he oversaw a recruiting staff of 900 that fielded 2.5 million job applications in one year.
He got his first job in human resources while still a graduate student in industrial and organizational psychology at San Jose State, when the former NUMMI auto plant hired him as a consultant. Geshuri held frank discussions with line workers to find out what would make a better working environment and zeroed in on the need for better communication within the plant.
From there, Geshuri went on to Applied Materials, E-Trade Financial and his own startup. He's always been fascinated by the intersection of business and human behavior and likes to cultivate talented people around a common cause.
He's rarely had to look for work himself: Google came knocking in 2004, when the company was about to go public and explode in size. Geshuri met with Larry Page, Sergey Brin and Eric Schmidt on a weekly basis as they sought to hire the best engineers from around the world. From 2004 to 2009, the employee head count skyrocketed from 2,500 to more than 20,000.
"I thought I knew recruiting and staffing but Google really changed my perspective," Geshuri said. "It really forced me to think about how to cultivate talent and make Google the destination point, and everyone in the company was responsible for bringing in more talent."
Geshuri never thought he would leave Google. But now he's two years into his next act at Tesla. He joined the electric-vehicle company in November 2009, when the company's head count was about 600. Geshuri remembers walking through a vacant former Hewlett-Packard (HPQ) building on Deer Park Road in Palo Alto with J.B. Straubel, Tesla's chief technology officer.
"I was walking around Tesla's future headquarters while under construction with J.B. and he said something like, 'Imagine building this place with the best of the best,' " recalls Geshuri, who loves the startup phase of a company and the chance to have a hand in creating a unique corporate culture. "He pushed on the right buttons."
Most of the 217 jobs currently listed on Tesla's website are for design and manufacturing engineers based in Palo Alto and Fremont. But the company is also looking for an assistant store manager in Newport Beach, an intern in Zurich, vehicle technicians in Paris, Hong Kong and Tokyo and an executive chef. As Tesla's brand has grown in the wake of its successful IPO in June 2010, résumés have poured in. On average, Tesla receives 300 applications for every job opening.
"We're searching for excellent individuals," Geshuri said. "We want people who are exceptional in their own right but share the same DNA and can collaborate as part of a team."
To find the best and the brightest, Geshuri has built a recruiting staff of 25 people. But all Tesla employees are encouraged to think of themselves as recruiters, and referrals are a vibrant part of the hiring process. CEO Elon Musk has often said that staffing is his top priority and that the value of the company is measured by the quality of the talent. He plays a hands-on role in hiring and personally interviews many of the job candidates.
Former NUMMI workers make up a big pool of potential employees to choose from. College campuses are also key: Tesla has reached out to colleges and universities that have active Society of Automotive Engineers competitions, forming relationships with faculty advisers and keeping tabs on top students and winning teams. It's a global search: Tesla employees have relocated to the Bay Area from the Midwest, Germany, Asia and elsewhere.
About 25 percent of Tesla employees are women, a higher ratio than that of many Silicon Valley tech companies. And Tesla has hired nearly 60 military veterans, including several from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
As the nation slowly emerges from the economic downturn, many workers face the daunting task of reinventing themselves. Geshuri has some advice: Social networks like LinkedIn are effective, but make sure that your information is current and in-depth. And instead of simply listing the most recent jobs on a résumé, be sure to elaborate on what exactly you did in each job.
"Sometimes people miss an opportunity to describe their exceptionalism on their résumé," he said. "What made them exceptional in that role?"
Gaps in employment can also be overcome.
"We're looking for people who are proactive. We want people who are go-getters," he said. "When you were in between jobs did you go back to school, pursue a favorite hobby or volunteer? Whatever hand you were dealt, are you emerging better?"
Eric Burgess worked for Geshuri at Google and now at Tesla. He says Geshuri is both a player and a coach who wants people to be successful. He regularly takes part in interviews with job candidates and has a knack for peeling back the layers of a résumé.
"He's really good at getting interesting nuggets out of people," Burgess said. "He pulls things from résumés that aren't related to the job to see what the person has learned from the experience. He'll ask you why you became a history major."
Though hiring and recruiting is a big part of Geshuri's job, as vice president of human resources he's also building Tesla's culture. It's a typical startup: People arrive early, stay late and work hard.
Tesla tries to alleviate some of the pressure by providing shuttle buses with wireless Internet access to ferry employees who live in San Francisco and elsewhere to and from work. There's an employee garden on the hill above the parking lot, and everyone is encouraged to exercise and stay healthy. Employees can sign up to have boxes of organic vegetables delivered to Tesla. And some of those vegetables could be served in the company's cafeteria once he's found the perfect executive chef.
"They have to not just create a great menu, but programs for healthy living," Geshuri said. "And they need to be an effervescent personality."

Here's our thoughts:
I understand your view, but that's like the naysayers that told Ford they were doomed with the model T. We're a startup in this sector really, established less than 10yrs ago in 2003. We're one of the very few makers actually tackling this market.
Big auto does NOT want to see their massive profits swept away. They fear change, that's a given. Seriously, vehicles haven't changed much since 1960 have they? Pretty much the same idea with some mods here and there.
We've had no problems getting reservations for the model S.
The prices you speak of are mostly generated to the battery tech really imo. Current batteries for this application are rather pricey and bulky at the moment. In due time. That area is getting mucho attention as we speak. Just wait until we can get 1k+ miles on one charge. It's all up to the battery really. Nano-batteries are the next frontier IMO.
Also, electric drive-trains just about destroy fossil fuel stinkers in all areas. Less physical parts to fail = WIN
Fossil fuels have efficiency of a snail.
If they build it, we will come.
That's why BMW is putting billions in this bet right now
Not hating at all. Why would we hoard our on oil and keep gas prices high, if the future really will rely on everything going electric. Also how many normal american's do you know that are just dying to fork over $50k for a car they will have to recharge after 200 miles?
True this technology is the future but more like 50 years from now
TSLA pumping 33+ here again, so strong! Let's see 33.25 kiss here again
Shoot could have got .50/per share if I'd waited 20 mins hah :P GO TSLA you monsta!
You have to be joking, if not that's hilarious. Electric cars are the future, we all know that. The numbers show that. When we get nanobattery in full effect we're going way up. Crazy how we're over $30 now when folks were saying dumpage was to come. Cheers!
GO TSLA
TSLA loves it, $33 anyone? I think so! :D Cheers
TSLA seems to like Euro Woes as it bumps nicely. Craziness... GO TSLA (one of few NSDQ's to push this week.)
Excellent news today TSLA, the S is being shown to the world now. Tastes good, feels grrrrrreat!
TSLA exploded while I was gone hah love it. $35 hit Daaaaymn! Perhaps the world is waking up for the real deal. I cannot believe some folks thought this was going to $15 hah.. come on now buy your crappy puts elsewhere
Nissan To Sell Fast Chargers At Dramatically Reduced Price Level
Interesting development - Nissan has said that the company is now able to sell Level 3 fast chargers (normally priced in the $30k to 40k range) for $9,900 - obviously a dramatic price reduction. This is great for the EV market as a whole. Hopefully this will help push the standardization of the industry. More detail here -

New EV IPO coming very soon to US
Further to post 5561 (TheKLF, 3 days ago) it seems this comment by Simon Cawkwell (usually an avid shorter of stocks) is out there in the public domain now, on assorted other bulletin boards - so maybe OK to quote here (will delete if asked to, but it does seem to have already gone feral):
"I also pass on the following comments on Tanfield Group (TAN): "Tanfield has a book value c£38m (c.£8m is cash). The market capitalisation at 48p is c. £43m and they have a 27% holding of Smith Electronic Vehicles which has just issued its prospectus to list imminently on Nasdaq with UBS and Merrill as co-bookrunners. So, effectively, Tanfield is pretty much a free option on the IPO where the mooted valuation is $500-1bln. At $500m that works out to be 96p per share and at $1bn its 177p for Tanfield. To put this in perspective, TESLA , the electric sports car manufacturer, is valued at $3.5bln and where losses are currently of the order of $220+m p.a.." On this basis Tanfield is ridiculously cheap at under 80p and, on a technical basis, it is clear that Tanfield has broken upwards. It ain't coming back.''
This is a great company with a great product

Nikola Tesla was born in 1856 in Smiljan, Croatia, then part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. His father was a priest in the Serbian Orthodox church
and his mother managed the family’s farm. In 1863 Tesla’s brother Daniel was killed in a riding accident.
The shock of the loss unsettled the 7-year-old Tesla, who reported seeing visions—the first signs of his lifelong mental illnesses.

$TSLA, WOULD TSLA BUY FORD ?????
$TSLA, Exclusive: Bill Ford at Mustang Mach-E unveil admits being on Tesla’s turf
Bradley Berman
- Nov. 17th 2019 10:44 pm ET
Minutes after the official unveiling of the Ford Mustang Mach-E,
we jumped into the press scrum surrounding Bill Ford. Electrek asked Ford’s chairman, and Henry Ford’s great-grandson,
if he knew the introduction was taking place one block from Tesla’s design center.
“That’s a coincidence,” he said. And then he flashed a big smile.
Tesla Motors, Inc. (Tesla), incorporated on July 1, 2003, designs, develops, manufactures and sells electric vehicles and advanced electric vehicle powertrain components. Tesla owns its sales and service centers and Supercharger stations. In addition to the Company’s own vehicles, it designs, develops, manufactures, and sells advanced electric vehicle powertrain components to other automotive manufacturers. The Company has provided development services and powertrain components to Daimler AG (Daimler) for its Smart fortwo and A-Class electric vehicles. The Company developed stationary energy storage products for use in homes, commercial sites, and utilities. The Company offers financial products through various financial institutions in the United States, Europe, and Asia.
Tesla Motors was founded in 2003 by a group of engineers in Silicon Valley who wanted to prove that electric cars could be better than gasoline-powered cars. With instant torque, incredible power, and zero emissions, Tesla’s products would be cars without compromise. Each new generation would be increasingly affordable, helping the company work towards its mission: to accelerate the world’s transition to sustainable transport.
Tesla’s engineers first designed a powertrain for a sports car built around an AC induction motor, patented in 1888 by Nikola Tesla, the inventor who inspired the company’s name. The resulting Tesla Roadster was launched in 2008. Accelerating from 0 to 60 mph in 3.7 seconds and achieving a range of 245 miles per charge of its lithium ion battery, the Roadster set a new standard for electric mobility. Tesla would sell more than 2,400 Roadsters, now on the road in more than 30 countries.
In 2012, Tesla launched Model S, the world’s first premium electric sedan. Built from the ground up to be 100 percent electric, Model S has redefined the very concept of a four-door car. With room for seven passengers and more than 64 cubic feet of storage, Model S provides the comfort and utility of a family sedan while achieving the acceleration of a sports car: 0 to 60 mph in about five seconds. Its flat battery pack is integrated into the chassis and sits below the occupant cabin, lending the car a low center of gravity that enables outstanding road holding and handling while driving 265 miles per charge. Model S was named Motor Trend’s 2013 Car of the Year and achieved a 5-star safety rating from the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
In late 2014, Tesla CEO Elon Musk unveiled two dual motor all-wheel drive configurations of Model S that further improve the vehicle’s handling and performance. The 85D features a high efficiency motor at the front and rear, giving the car unparalleled control of traction in all conditions. The P85D pairs a high efficiency front motor with a performance rear motor for supercar acceleration, achieving a 0 to 60 mph time of 3.2 seconds – the fastest four-door production car ever made.
Now with more than 50,000 vehicles on the road worldwide, Tesla is preparing to launch Model X, a crossover vehicle that enters volume production in 2015. Featuring exhilarating acceleration, falcon wing doors, and room for three rows of seating, Model X defies categorization.
Tesla owners enjoy the benefit of charging at home so they never have to visit a gas station or spend a cent on gasoline. For long distance journeys, Tesla’s Supercharger network provides convenient and free access to high speed charging, replenishing half a charge in as little as 20 minutes. Superchargers now connect popular routes in North America, Europe, and Asia Pacific.
Tesla’s vehicles are produced at its factory in Fremont, California, previously home to New United Motor Manufacturing Inc., a joint venture between Toyota and General Motors. The Tesla Factory has returned thousands of jobs to the area and is capable of producing 1,000 cars a week.
The company is expanding its manufacturing footprint into other areas, including in Tilburg, the Netherlands, where it has an assembly facility, and Lathrop, California, where it has a specialized production plant. To reduce the costs of lithium ion battery packs, Tesla and key strategic partners including Panasonic have begun construction of a gigafactory in Nevada that will facilitate the production of a mass-market affordable vehicle, Model 3. By 2020, the gigafactory will produce more lithium ion cells than all of the world’s combined output in 2013. The gigafactory will also produce battery packs intended for use in stationary storage, helping to improve robustness of the electrical grid, reduce energy costs for businesses and residences, and provide a backup supply of power.
Tesla is not just an automaker, but also a technology and design company with a focus on energy innovation.
The Tesla Roadster is an electric sports car. The Company sells and services its Tesla Roadster though its Company-owned sales and service network in the North America, Europe and Asia. It has delivered approximately 2,500 Tesla Roadsters to customers in over 30 countries. It completed the production of Tesla Roadster gliders at Lotus Cars Limited in January 2012.
Model S is a four door, five-passenger premium sedan. It has designed Model S to include a third row with two rear-facing child seats, subject to applicable safety regulations and requirements, allowing the Company to offer a seven passenger sedan.
The Company revealed an early prototype of the Model X crossover as the first vehicle that it intends to develop by leveraging the Model S platform. This vehicle has been designed to fill the niche between the roominess of a minivan and the style of an SUV, while having high performance features, such as a dual motor all-wheel drive system. Model X will seat seven adults. The Company anticipates that it would make Model X available with 60 kWh and 85 kWh battery pack options, with pricing of each version similar to those of a comparably equipped Model S.
The Company also has announced its intent to develop a third generation electric vehicle, to which it refers as Gen III, to be produced at the Tesla Factory.
In addition to the Company’s own vehicles, it designs, develops, manufactures, and sells advanced electric vehicle powertrain components to other automotive manufacturers. The Company has provided development services and full powertrain systems and components to Daimler AG for its Smart fortwo, A-Class, and B-Class electric vehicles. It has also developed an electric powertrain system for Toyota Motor Corporation for use in its RAV4 EV. As of December 31, 2013 the Company shipped approximately 1,600 units.
In 2013, the Company developed stationary energy storage products for use in homes, commercial sites, and utilities. The applications for these battery systems include backup power, peak demand reduction, demand response and wholesale electric market services. The Company intends to ramp sales of these products in 2014. In 2015, Tesla introduced the Powrball: Tesla Home Battery. Powerwall is a home battery that charges using electricity generated from solar panels, or when utility rates are low, and powers your home in the evening. It also fortifies your home against power outages by providing a backup electricity supply. Automated, compact and simple to install, Powerwall offers independence from the utility grid and the security of an emergency backup. Powerball comes in 10kWh weekly cycle and 7kWh daily cycle models. Both are guaranteed for ten years and are sufficient to power most homes during peak evening hours. Multiple batteries may be installed together for homes with greater energy need, up to 90 kWh total for the 10 kWh battery and 63 kWh total for the 7 kWh battery.
The Company offers financial products through various financial institutions in the United States, Europe, and Asia.
