A RARE INTERVIEW WITH TESLA’S CHIEF DESIGNER, FRANZ VON HOLZHAUSEN
– Franz von Holzhausen has been Tesla’s chief designer since 2008. CNBC got a rare interview with him at the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles, which recently opened a new Tesla exhibit.
– Von Holzhausen was a lead designer on the Tesla Model S, Model 3, Model X and Model Y as well as the Cybertruck, Tesla Semi truck and the second-generation Roadster.
– When asked about his favorite Tesla design and what he was most proud of, von Holzhausen said, “Favorite one is the one that is coming. I think that I can’t talk about.”
– He spoke to CNBC about what it’s like to have Elon Musk as a boss, what happened when the glass shattered on the windows at the Cybertruck unveil, the Tesla Semi truck and what’s next for auto design.
