Which may have been tailored for the demo - for example, put a very small battery pack in there, so that the weight is much lower than the weight of the actual car would be - it only needs to drive a few meters, doesn't it?
Based on the record of Musk & co straight out LYING in such events (remember Solarcity?), I am very confident in saying that a large portion of what they demonstrated they have not actually solved how to fit in a real production car.
Tesla did it to themselves. They have a long history of claiming stuff and never actually delivering. Or delivering a washed down version that never makes commercial difference.
True, but that doesn't dismiss the things that did deliver that nobody else has or could.
It's amazing how on HN, a place where hackers, dreamers, builders come together to talk can't say one positive thing from some of these actual delivered engineering feats. It's bias happening real-time.

Once WhistlingDiesel posts a stress test of the thrusters, I'll believe they're legit
