While there are plenty of bullish Lucid shareholders out there, Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) CEO Elon Musk had some words of warning on Twitter today. Lucid CEO Peter Rawlinson was a former executive at Tesla and had a heavy hand in designing both the Model S and Model X vehicles. Veiled jabs have been delivered by both CEOs over the past year, but Musk seems to have issued a reality check to new EV makers. On Twitter, Musk opined about how painful scaling production, supply chain, and logistics can be for a new EV maker. He also took a jab at both Lucid and Rivian about being valued at tens of billions of dollars without ever even delivering a vehicle.
