People have ran red lights on autopilot. Recent youtube vids have shown the model 3 running red lights and stop signs despite talk of this being...
In the UK I believe the cost is £0.25 per kW. But electricity is also a "high level" energy compared to gasoline. So it's additionally wasteful....
I highly recommend this YouTube video about what causes lithium battery degradation - it's pretty heavy on the science - but lists the key things...
In Bjorn's latest video "Supercharging a Model 3 SR" it hits an impressive 170kWh (an amazing 3.4C on a 50kWh pack) but the battery is also heated...
Agreed. Would only be a good idea to have an option for slower charging (and less charged $) if there was no queue / less than 50% occupancy. If...
To all the people that found my post funny. Well maybe part of it was because you weren't being charged for that "extra" energy that was used to...
Heating the battery from negative infinity to 15/20C = sensible. Yes, it's well known cold batteries can't charge/discharge at even a fraction of...
The cars exoskeleton appears to be the structure. That was evident from the video. Ok it might be a bit thinner at front/rear to crumple - but it...
Tesla I thought was all about the fight against big auto, big oil, and wasted energy imho - but at the same time having fun. We've now seen them...
So for a decade we've been told that active battery management of lithium batteries is good. Lithium batteries (for their longevity) like to stay...
Anyone know what a standard range plus 50kW can charge at on a v2 or a v3 charger? All the youtube videos of charging model 3s seem to be of the...
Few things have changed in the UK overnight. Std range plus UK price has just come down to £36490. This puts the list price at £39990....
Given it's best to not leave it below 10% or at 100% for very long try at least to make sure you start your charging session to finish just before...
FSD - I'm not sure - but is that not tied to you and not the car? Fred and other bloke were wondering if the car came up for resale would they...
Sorry, no, Teslarati take the grand price for ass-kissing. Elon could kill a puppy and they'd spin it that it was a dangerous dog, had eyes on a...
I don't know if this is a UK only thing. Option is choose: Std Range Plus - £38,900 Performance - £48,590. Then you click through to page 2 and...
Self-driving is hardest to achieve in towns and cities - I think that's a given. Yet to achieve a robo-taxi fleet you need to do towns and cities,...
I don't / haven't used an Uber / Lyft. But I recall on a conference call 3 years ago Elon and co giggling about "something" coming in the future -...
this was where I read about "Elon's belief in sales magically returning" Tesla’s earnings were a ‘debacle,’ says longtime bull in scorching...
Is this not because the banks earn about 5-10% in commission on each share raise? So $100m on a $2bn new share issue, and sometimes these are...
So presumably all that unused credit is not counted in the $2.2bn of "cash and equivalents" that Tesla have. What are the equivalents in this...
"buy low, sell high" is good - as long as you're not doing the other saying "catching a falling knife" I've tried that before and watched as a...
Tesla I believe is only changing the front motor on the model S /X to a PMSRM - 'Permanent Magnet Switched Reluctance Motor'. Not sure if the form...
One analyst described it as "one of the worst quarters he'd seen in tech history" - yet the share price was flat in after hours trading!! Others...
Companies (including mine) announce layoffs, then decide who to let go sometimes. Put it the other way. Tesla knew they needed to do a refresh on...
correction - cash burn is $1.7bn a month ($5.1bn / 3). That's still a scary amount when you have $2.2bn in the bank. That's about 40 days where...
because nobody wants to use that last 30,40,50 miles as they are worried about predicted range - so take that away from 220 and you have only 170....
All you need is 3 figures. Sales of $4.4bn (net loss was $702m) So Q1 costs of $5.1bn Cash position at end of quarter of $2.2bn, ... and Elon...
I call total and complete B.S. on "S&X production was deliberately lowered in Q1 for the retooling." that was said on the call (not by Elon). I...
Yeah. Think you're right. At some point this year - probably near the end of the quarter when they're at "cash crunch time" they'll make some...
If you do the maths on Panasonic / Tesla's output. 5500 model 3 cars a month x 65kwh average capacity (some 75's some 65's a few 50s) x 52 weeks a...
Given it's recomended to have your hands on the wheel etc. etc. it seems massively irresponsible for the producers of Top Gear to film the...
Cramer: "Charts show why Tesla's stock could be set to rebound" CNBC-2 Apr 2019 (2 days ago) Didn't he call that US bank a "screaming buy" back in...
Does anyone recall that the short range was only supposed to charge at about 65% the speed of the long range (75kW vs 120kW). Now of course the 3...
Yeah, think it was too small asian ladies. Although people have got 20 people in a phone-booth before :) From the side view of the car it just...
The rear 2 seats must only be for children I reckon. There's no headrests on them in the video above or in the graphic on the website. Looking at...
There's a pic on Electrek that somebody managed to take off the rear 2 seats. Interestingly they appear to have no headrests. I think, because the...
The problem was 80% of his headlines used to be about Tesla - not about the other cars, and always very favourable. I was giving up on the site...
Was it a 5 or 7 seater version? I'm struggling to see how 2 rear seats will fit in the back of this given it's a smaller body than the X (the 3 is...
I think the 5 seat version would be the more popular option. I think it's a 5+2 kids seats. Looking at where the reat seats are (visible in the 3...
Remember he snuck in the X to make the 3 their 4th car the brand had released. They probably should have done a Y before a 3. It could be sold at...
They use the S and X as having a hatchback and 2 screens over the 3 as a sales advantage. The Y at least is a hatchback. Steve Jobs famously said...
I think people who buy the 3 like the sleek low-drag efficiency. I just wish the 3 came with the hatchback, given the S and X do, and now the Y....
It's a shame Elon spent 30mins on the company history recap, and only 7mins on the Y. The dark and blocky streaming video + dark blue car against...
From an economic point of view what is the cost to Tesla of having 100,000 cars out there or 100,001 cars. The software is already developed. It's...
I was only a day 2, not day 1 holder. And in the US the order people were invited to configure was not always in the order people reserved. If I...
The reservation place is gone. I was told that when I cancelled. The reservation seems to mean a lot less than people expected. People in the US...
As I understand it the car has up to 10 cold gas thrusters (just pressurised air). When the batteries are not moving the car the electric enerrgy...
Reminds me of something George Costanza did in Seinfeld. Get fired. Then show up at work the next day and get everyone to blow it off on the...
