If you absolutely want to destroy the battery, can you hit 350 kW or has Porsche backed away from that claim? I can't find an newer update than this (undated?) Porsche press release on the Taycan. "In the pilot cities of Shanghai, Beijing, Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya and London, Porsche Charging...

Has there always been a Plaid and Plaid+? Asking because "Plaid" shows March delivery with Plaid+ late 2021.

Just a reminder that ARK's price target from Jan 31, 2020 (Tesla’s Potential Trajectory During the Next Five Years) had an Expected Value of $1,400 in 2024 ($7K pre-split). While we all wait for ARK to update their price target, it is worth noting that Cathie was featured on a Market Rebellion...

ARK's Jan 2020 model had a bull prediction of $15K pre-split. The numbers in my post were already adjusted to the current post-split numbers. FWIW, with Gene Munster stating $2,500 by the end of 2023 that puts him right there with ARK's 2024 bull scenario ($15,000 pre-split, $3,000 post-split). Ex:

Serious question,... is there a reason why the stock goes horizontal on days like today during "lunch"?

Cathie Wood was featured on Market Rebellion on Oct 13. The full video appears to be inaccessible now (linked in this Twitter post), but in it she said TSLA would experience about 45% compound annual growth rate through 2025 which (by my calculation using the share price on that day) puts her...

"Seven new versions of the all-electric VW ID.3 range have been confirmed Cheapest is the ID.3 Life, which starts at £29,990 including a government grant Six will use a 58kWh battery and have ranges of between 258 and 263 miles The £40k ID.3 Tour with a higher-capacity 77kWh battery has a...

For those that missed it, the replay is now available on their website.

Hmmm... TD Ameritrade too. Downdetector seems to show issues at other brokerages if I'm reading this page correctly.

I'm only familiar with ARK's 2024 price targets. They do mention a $15K "Bull" and $22K "Golden Goose" case also for 2024. Was there something else from them for 2030?

I don't want to clutter this thread up with a discussion of what AP (or Enhanced AP in my car) can and can't do but you and I appear to have had very different experiences. I mentioned that section of I95 because it seems like you won't be able to use Super Cruise there until the mutli-year...

I don't have a Cadillac, I have a Model 3 LR RWD. The info on the missing sections of I95 is from a zoom-able map on the Super Cruise page that I linked.

Seems to have a pretty good track record per Tipranks

Ford press release "Ford engineers and test drivers have accumulated more than 650,000 miles testing tech like Adaptive Cruise Control and Blind Spot Information System with Cross-Traffic Alert to ensure these radar- and camera-based features work in as many real-world scenarios as possible" I...

I'm calling it now, four talking heads on CNBC after marked close, all stating variations of "I have no idea how to value TSLA"

So that title is from a Barron's article, containing a link to a MarketWatch story, that in turn links to the WaPo original, oof. So we have the infamous "four senior administration officials with knowledge of internal planning" and "two people with knowledge of the meeting". What may be...

Well, I guess Pierre figured out an answer to the question he posted... Pierre's prior price targets were mentioned in this Jan 21, 2020 article. "Long-time Tesla bull Pierre Ferragu of New Street Research on Tuesday boosted his Tesla price target to $800 from $530" "Ferragu initiated...

Repairs were covered under warranty. The also performed two other services at no charge. Interestingly, the charge port parts were listed as "Goodwill - Service". Details: Concern: Customer states: Creaking from right front at low speeds, mostly when braking/slowing down. This noise started...

They're saying the upper control arm needs to be replaced. Will be putting it on the lift shortly but haven't said if this will be covered under warranty.

At 26k or so miles with same issue. Appointment on Tue.

As a TSLA long, I have always planned to hold for years. It was a test of faith at and below $200 and it became very hard for me to separate short-term TSLA gyrations from the long-term prospects of Tesla. Now that we're far above those prices I have no idea if today's price of TSLA is an...

You can certainly plug in to charge if there is a charging location convenient to where you are going. In an earlier post you said 80-100 miles per day. That is well within the range of a LR AWD Model 3 even assuming you'd set the charge limit to 80%, enable cabin overheat protection, and turn...

It will be interesting to see if this section of I95 in Philly (my highlighting in yellow) remains off the Supercruise map while construction on the roadway is underway. The construction won't be completed until 2023 or 2025. As good as SC is / can be, it would stink if it was unavailable for...

Yes, but it requires little to no intervention on highways. That's how it reduces the stress of my daily commute. I frankly don't typically use AP on secondary roads for the most part.

What % of that driving is on highways? I'm asking because my daily commute is about 40 miles round trip. Once I got the Model 3, I decided to take the slightly longer version of that commute since it allows me to use AP on the middle section (longest part of my drive both by distance and time)...

Golly

And don't drive on a highway where there is construction. At least I assume that's the reason that chunks of I95 are missing from Super Cruise near Philadelphia. I've been using AP through that area of 95 since shortly after v9 software was released. This type of construction lasts years...

If you have the time, the full CEO Letter and Client Letter are worth a read. What else are you going to do, stare at the TSLA stock ticker?

It appears that some commands were added with 40.50.1 that aren't noted in the release notes. A few that I found, Climate split/synch and Synch/split climate Wipers on/off/auto/faster/slower There are probably more ways to control the wipers but it wasn't raining so I probably looked like...

Sell? That puppy can become a ten-bagger with patience. :D

Well, Christmas is just around the corner and I'm sure there are some naughty boys and girls out there...

Plugshare shows 15 CCS and one CHAdeMO there. The Electrify America FAQ states "Though there are two connectors at each Electrify America charger, only one can be used at a time. Having two connectors ensures that it’s easy for you to plug in—no matter where your car’s charging port is...

Sorry if I missed it, but were there any questions on battery production?

I gotta say, Zach is killing it. Really clear in his explanations.

I never got the mythical bump to 325 so I still consider 310 as 100%. Can't really degrade from something you never had. The "High" and "Current" range numbers are estimates from Teslafi. Fwiw, my lifetime efficiency is a little over 220 Wh/Mile.

Same issues. I have been able to get Spotify back (Model 3) by restarting with both steering wheel buttons.

Just over 22k miles, LR RWD. Info below from Teslafi.com High Range Current Range Range Loss Percent Loss 314.86 312.19 2.67. 0.86

Ugh, never mind. Somehow my charge limit got set to 84%. This means my estimated range @ 100% is actually 310 or so.

Yes. Just confirmed that the download was 32.11

M3 LR RWD and just Enhanced AP (before the s/w options became AP and FSD). Download in progress and at 32.2.2 now so I'm assuming it's v10 coming down.

LR RWD @ 22k and fw 32.2.2. Never saw the increase until now. Fwiw I didn't top off for the past 2 weeks, only charged when range got around 90 (daily commute is 40mi total). Now at 80% I show 261mi (326 @ 100%)

1 & 2 I can anticipate and be ready to react. For 3, I've had it break for an overpass during my commute one day and then be fine another day with (seemingly) identical conditions. I fear for the day when I'm manually accelerating to override "phantom braking" and AP is actually detecting a...

Everyone has their own preferences but I immediately thought of this.

In case it wasn't posted here, below is a link to my post in the Tesla Supercharger network thread Wawa plans to double number of its Tesla super-charging stations

Wawa plans to double number of its Tesla super-charging stations Wawa is a regional convenience store in the mid-Atlantic region and Florida. Their newer stores (Super Wawas) have gas pumps. "Lori Bruce, a spokesperson for Wawa, said the company now has 16 stores with Tesla Superchargers with...

And Oil isn't feeling too well. Since I seem to be on a "fossil fuels are dead" run, here's an article from OilPrice.com that references a research report that starts, "The long-term breakeven oil price needs to be as low as $9 or $10 a barrel so that gasoline cars can remain competitive as a...

Coal will be jettisoned from the electric grid faster than current projections are taking into account, which will accelerate the transition to renewables and natural gas. Is your portfolio prepared for that?

I person once told me that the answer to any question you never ask is "no". So at least you have a chance of making some non-zero impact. Edit: I always make it a point to contact companies / hotels that host destination and Superchargers to let them know that I patronize them because of it.
