What it is
Coverage says SpaceX co-developed the thrust and flight packages, and that the suction system and the rest of the car are Tesla's. Tesla has said every usable void is packed with COPVs.
The sources used here state that division of work. They are not a joint specification, and this page does not add claims about other SpaceX hardware.
Figures below come from Tesla posts or from engineers speaking to outlets. Where sources disagree, the spec sheet says so.
