First the handlebar is too large for small hands and comes with no grips, second the top tube is too wide to be comfortable between the legs and the whole frame is just edges.
If you want a good balance bike look for brands like prevelo [0] or woom [1] who have been designing kid bikes for years.

I'm surprised they haven't yet released a cyber-grill.
That way they can learn to use the brakes, and when you put the pedals on, they will quickly learn to cycle it. Took my daughter an afternoon.

there are currently 600M kids between 0-4 ages. Imagine each paying $100 for this bike, we are talking about $60B revenue. On top of that Tesla is planning to sell accessories and subscription to these bikes, which will grow their revenue by another $120B
We haven't even started talking about how experience with these bikes will shape these kids and eventually they will buy Tesla in the future when they grow up (we are talking about another $50T market cap addition over 30 years, around 125M new customers every year)
IANAL, P&L, this is not a financial advice: Invest now before its too late

Or, you know, spend a tenner on a used one off Facebook Marketplace and a fiver on a tin of spray paint to make it all cool and custom.
Musk promises self-driving cars, hyperloops, tunnels, and what they actually deliver is... a †balance bike*?!
Satire is dead, because I can't imagine a worse self-own.
(That's pretty normal for a car company - many car brands have a lifestyle department).
The overlap between Tesla arseholes and roadie arseholes is probably considerable.
No, Preston, the yellow lambswool jumper that cost as much as a second-hand Fiat is not making you faster. Take it off, you look like a tit.
