They're definitely at the point where their competitors would have released a replacement (Model S) or refresh (Model X). I'm not sure it's clear that Tesla actually needs to do that. Ford and GM don't release new models just because the clock demands it, they release new models when the market demands it. Is the market demanding a replacement to the model S, or did the Model 3 hype cycle alleviate that demand?

I think you're right - the market is demanding a minivan and a pickup more than a new model S.
