Tesla reported strong vehicle delivery growth and increased Full Self-Driving (FSD) subscriptions in Q2, but profitability declined due to lower average selling prices and higher expenses. The company’s future growth potential remains promising with projects like FSD, Cybercab, Semi trucks, and Optimus robots, though these ventures require significant capital and have uncertain timelines.
