The article mentioned that "Tesla is striving and failing to build a pretty simple vehicle. The Model 3 is basically an electric Honda Accord. And Honda without noticeable effort builds and sells over 100,000 of those every single month in the US alone.".

I've always been too afraid to ask, with all the knowledge and best practices in car making, even consider Tesla isn't willing to hire other factories to make the car, what exactly is costing so much more time than it seems to its competition in terms of making car? Is it because Tesla bet too much time and resource on a much more autonomous production line which failed to deliver?
