Like most of the tragic stories coming out of Tesla’s struggle with automotive manufacturing, the main lesson of this saga is that making cars is hard. But beyond that, there’s a theme that also resonates throughout many of Tesla’s challenges: a frantic pace may push an up-and-coming automaker through today’s crisis but in any heavy industry there will always be a cost for not planning thoroughly and moving at a deliberate pace. In its haste to conquer the industry and justify its industry-dwarfing market valuation, Tesla seems to have lost one of its most important assets: its environmental leadership.
