But according to former Apple analyst Gene Munster (via Loup Ventures), "There's a method to Musk's goal-setting madness."

August 19th, 2019 | by Matt Pressman

The race to fully autonomous vehicles is on. In April, Elon Musk declared that Tesla should have over a million level 5 autonomous vehicles manufactured by 2020.
