Tesla CEO Elon Musk has said the company's upcoming affordable EV will operate mainly as an autonomous car when it eventually arrives, reports Carscoops. Speaking at the Morgan Stanley Conference, Musk said the newcomer (rumored to be called the Model 2) will "be used almost entirely in autonomous mode." "People that have used Tesla Full-Self Driving have seen how rapidly the Full-Self Driving capabilities has been evolving; it should be obvious that [this] is the most profound thing [for Tesla]. Last year, the outspoken chief executive said that a small car was not a priority for Tesla. That quickly changed, though, with Musk saying an entry-level EV is the "primary focus of our new vehicle development team."
