I think the hundreds of millions in R&D were totally worth for the world's dumbest looking windshield wiper alone.Back to the CT itself, it would go down as one of the largest failures ever (in automotive history) if the CT project was somehow scraped at this point with only a handful of prototypes produced. Tesla has invested 100's of millions in the CT design and another $1billion+ in the factory that is supposed to produce it. Yes, GT plant is currently pumping out Model Y's but it's original intent was to produce CT's.
I believe if the new tabless cells were available in quantity right now, we'd probably have production model CT's being road tested as we speak. But, no cells, no CT (or Roadster2 or Plaid +).
