While Elon defenitely lead Tesla to it's success, the grand masterplan Sports Car (for few rich) - Limousine (for more) - Affordabel EV (for many) has ben around since the beginning, long long before the Roadster was halfway finished. How much of this is from Elon himself I don't know, but back...

I'm pretty sure I remember Elon talking about how 6.0 will update the Navigationsoftware quiet drastically, but that was back in march or so. So it's the best guess that you might be able to do a lot more of the standard features of other navigation system and hopefully some new cool ones too...

I agree with the OP that the UI can use some improvments. sure its good generally but I think it's not thought throu in details sometimes. Many of those can be adressed with some new voice commands, more possible functions on the stearing wheel buttons or UI changes. They already did it with...

So in other words you don't develop clean technics because then some 'poorer' countries will use more of the cheaper and dirty techniques? Wshould try and make a cleaner grid, cleaner factories and a sustainable society.. right now that's in many ways just not true. If you wait for the perfect...

It's funny how everybody knows what the energy lifecicle is on every part of a car as soon as it's electric, but nobody ever questions where gasoline comes from... And how much electricity is used while refining Gasoline: How much electricity is used refine a gallon of Gasoline? So...

Fair enough, with a lightweight car you are the weak one in traffic, true.. but none of those get pushed away each time a truck passes.. Well my main issue with the handles is that there is no mechical way to get them out and open the door. The confort comes mostly from the keyless door unlock...

While some reviews of the pirellis are saying it's not very good in snow none of them say they are very bad either. It's hard to believe it's such an imense difference as like I said I had often a hard time to get the car moving in flat terrain. Unfortunately trying the difference out by myself...

Hello, I just returned from a one day winter driving course in the swiss mountains. It was snowing in the morning and raining in the afternoon. So we had all kinda fresh snow and slippery. As this is my first driving course ever I'm probably far from an expert driver and I did learn a lot...

So an Apple Co Founder don't like fanboys? I think that's funny :tongue:

I searched this Forum but didn't found much, so I thought we should start a collection of your favorte homescreens, so far I only found 2: http://dash.time4tesla.com/ - TESLAMODS TeslaTuner.com - The place for Tesla Motors apps and accessories Weather for Moffett Nas/Mtn, CA I know somewhere...

In Switzerland it's quiete mixed too. On my first drive back from Winterthur it worked quiet well. But in many places afterwards it didn't work so well. Right now I mostly consume music over the memory stick feature.

Yes there is not much on the boards from the lucky europeans. The few things I've messages I've red of them were very positive as expected. Also at least the german articles of late were very positive. Only negative things were that some didn't get the standard charging adapter so you charge...

the article is pretty good and funny as they said things like: Tesla managed to get the electric cars out of the cerial corner (this translates to something like hippiefraction). The 2 negative things they mentioned that the car was annoyingly noisy at high speeds from wind- and wheelnoises...

One swiss roadster friend said he had a planned delivery date mid august, so he should have gotten his already. I still hope for a mid september delivery, but no final date so far, i have a 'normal' reservation.
