it isn't "has", it is an opportunity to rethink what hasn't changed in the last 100 years.
Google/Apple (and probably Uber) can attach drivetrain to their platform while Ford/GM just aren't capable of producing a platform to attach to their drivetrains. Tesla is an intermediate step in that direction and it looks like a good [though far from sure] candidate to make it successfully into the future of electric connected self-driving cars.
