Tesla uses internal car microphones already in the factory to locate creaking noises. And Moravy is rising to become Tesla’s CEO
Lars Moravy, Tesla’s vice president of engineering, is emerging as the face of the automaker. In a recent interview, he revealed that the company continues to innovate when it comes to car assembly lines in its factories. For example, it has begun using car microphones to detect creaks inside the cabin even before the vehicle is delivered to the buyer. This mechanism is called “full self-hearing.” The entire process is monitored by artificial intelligence.
Tesla adopts the Toyota Way. A thousand times over
Moravy revealed that every vehicle produced is also a test vehicle. Tesla utilizes artificial intelligence at multiple stages of car production, including in engineering (design), during manufacturing, and for quality control (see the example above). This enables problem detection and optimization processes to proceed much faster than with human oversight. Information flows between different production levels, and this communication reportedly fosters a sense of responsibility for the product regardless of the stage.
We can assume that from our, as viewers, perspective, this sometimes leads to conclusions that Tesla is failing to keep its promises, but decisions eventually find their justification. This might have been the case with the announcement of using a single large casting for the Model Y’s chassis, an option that turned out to be more expensive and less sensible over time than constructing the chassis from several components.
Moravy believes that the Tesla Robotaxi (Cybercab) will achieve a production scale much larger than what observers expect. He also revealed that some of the vehicle’s test units have steering wheels and pedals from the Cybertruck, meaning parts from a vehicle on the other end of the scale. This suggests to us that Cybertruck sales are lower than anticipated, so there needs to be a place to use the parts made for it. Another interesting detail about Cybercab is the use of modified wiring (could this refer to an innovation from the previous decade?), a different way of stacking batteries, a modified vehicle assembly mechanism, and so on.

It’s worth watching; the conversation is very insightful:
If you’re a Tesla investor, this is an interview you shouldn’t miss. The full video is posted below.
Jeff Lutz @thejefflutz and I sat down with Tesla’s VP of Engineering, Lars Moravy, and it was full of valuable insights!

New updates on the engineering processes at Giga Texas are expected to be released on Tuesday, July 7, while today in the United States, the Tesla Model YYY, also known as the Tesla Model Y L, an extended version of the Model Y, made its debut. Tesla itself also revealed that it has delivered a total of 480,126 vehicles, surpassing analysts’ predictions and achieving the best result in history for the second quarter of the year.
