Chips occupy a very important place in every field of technology. So much so that this situation creates the basis of a cutthroat competition in the sector. Tesla, one of the first names that come to mind when it comes to electric cars, made its choice for 4nm chip orders, which is seen as the latest technology.
Tesla preferred TSMC over Samsung in 4nm orders
Tesla established its medium and long-term plans. The company wanted to choose between Samsung and TSMC for 4nm processors, which are planned to be used in the driverless systems of Tesla cars. The company, of which Elon Musk is the CEO, preferred TSMC.
Tesla has forwarded order details to TSMC’s new facility in Arizona for its 4nm processors. According to the information received, mass production is expected to start in 2024. While this agreement makes TSMC smile, it will be a heavy blow for Samsung, according to experts.
On the other hand, when we look at the Tesla side, things are not very good this year. So much so that the company had been leading the industry for years. After German and Chinese automotive manufacturers left their internal combustion stubbornness behind and turned to electric car production, both their revenues and company values increased. On the other hand, Tesla’s value fell below $ 500 billion.
When we look at the market right now, we see that the biggest player is not Tesla but BYD Auto. In fact, looking at the list, the first 6 places in the list of best-selling electric cars belong to BYD’s models. However, it is worth noting that Tesla’s market share has also increased.
