Sandy Munro did a 2020 Tesla Model Y Teardown 42-video youtube series. They covered fit and finish, battery pack, wiring harness. Ford CEO in 2026 had his team do a Tesla teardown and was shocked to find 70 lbs lighter wiring harness and 1600 meters of less wiring versus a Ford Mach E.
Sandy Munro’s company noted Tesla’s lighter and shorter wiring designs and overall cost reductions.
Advantages discussed fewer parts, better integration, and superior battery tolerance.
In the Mach E, the induction motors were hung the way they always did it. There were differences and inefficiencies in the car because Ford engineers did not talk to each other and they did not force efficiency through their suppliers. There were off the shelf compromises that Ford did not even consider. Nextbigfuture covered this problem and the video analysis for years.
