That’s what Elon said, no innovation, just made the step

Two seconds of googling shows that Mercedes did this first in 2016, if not earlier.

Elon is a serial confabulist and bullshit artist.

As usual whenever Elon is involved people turn of their brains just so they can not admit that Elon or his companies did something well.

Nobody says this is the first time V48 has ever been used for anything. That literally just missing the point.

The point is that the whole architecture of the car will use PoE 48v.

And if you go and take apart these Mercedes cars you will see that the waste majority of all of the devices and the wiring use the exact same 12v architecture that all the ICE cars also use.

That seems to be the engine not the entire electrical loom?

He's an engineeer that worked through this with other engineers from first principles.

You're spreading bullshit with 2 seconds of effort.

Who? Because you can't mean Elon, not if your objection is to people spreading bullshit...
