Elon Musk has set a new benchmark in the automotive world with Tesla. But the situation is becoming increasingly difficult for both the company and its eccentric boss. Tesla employees are complaining of chaotic situations and problems with working conditions. Production is stalled, losses are mounting and Elon Musk's image has suffered several setbacks. Other car manufacturers are working on a model to compete with Tesla. The previously little-known Porsche electric model, the Taycan, could put the Americans in a difficult position. In addition, the traditional car manufacturers have the advantage of mastering mass production, which Tesla has yet to achieve. The report shows how much unknown German technology is hidden in the American electric car and how both Elon Musk and Chinese companies are banking on the know-how of the German industry. Who will dominate the market for new cars in the future? ------------------------------------------------------------ DW Documentary provides you with information beyond the headlines.
