Tesla CEO Elon Musk said a "major OEM" is interested in licensing the software and hardware that the EV maker is developing for vehicle autonomy. "We are already in early discussions with a major OEM about using Tesla FSD," Musk said Wednesday on the automaker's second-quarter earnings call. Musk said FSD should be able to drive autonomously as safely as a human driver by the end of this year. Ford cut the price of it Mustang Mach-E compact crossover, which competes with Tesla's Model Y, following the Tesla price cuts earlier this year. Vehicle production rose 86 percent to nearly 479,700 vehicles while deliveries rose 83 percent to 466,140 units.
