Looks a bit weak and low. Strange how proportions change by ride height. The CT Proto was above center cap height and the wheels were out.

We had a crash here in Germany, where the battery pack of the E-Tron was ejected in the same way- guess the NHTSA has got to do some deep dive. Smells like the fastening mechanism is under dimensioned...

fixed that for You: https://www.theglobeandmail.com/world/article-russia-ukraine-war-bakhmut-canadian-sniper/

We now have a guy in Germany, which could drive way below zero, and was able to draw 119KW from the battery. 2023 EU model. How could this be? Legit?

Dunno if this was posted here already. The PayPal mafia seems to be doing an incredible job in this war. Palantir and Starlink seem to be the key factors here: https://www.palantir.com/newsroom/letters/letter-from-the-ceo/software-and-war/...

The Oger will be proven wrong. Just wait for the January numbers....

A whole corporate culture in delusion. They must be out of their minds. Angst

Haha my thought exactly. What a zynic posting from the POTUS. It seems prio one was to have a photo op in a GM boat….. Dependencies….

Toyota is a bad shape, so is BMW and Audi IMHO, just judging on their percentage of new cars here in Germany. Those are mostly fleet slaes and they seem to be in shambles.

This whole discussion seems to run deep doesn´t it? ;) Elon has anger management problems too. I see a big, almost schizophrenic diverging personality between the public, soft spoken and highly educated and cultivated appearance and the raging Hulk on everything written. His fuel jajaja, but...

You are correct however with the periscopic view out of a save island. We have the freaks around the corner. Italy fell, Austria under scrutiny, Orban in effect et al. We have a lot on our table.

Goes much deeper. We have massive problems with infiltration in Germany and funding of alternative parties. The AfD is circulated to be backed by the Kremlin, heck maybe one day we´ll hear of parts of the SPD our second biggest party being bribed. In that regard Putin was smart and thought in...

In this regard Elon was right. There is no outcome, since the "System" Putin will never give up. It´s much bigger than the Nuremberg trials. So what is the consequence?

That sounds tough?

He apologized. Good! He first good public move after months of letdowns. An apology costs nothing, yet we have serial downvoting posters here for which this means a fortune....

We did it in Germany. Works without a hitch. The load rating works, plus the offset on the front axle wheels from the OLD wheels are better. 5mm more out. Better stance.

I´m still convinced this "friendly faced" LEO guy is onto something. The "no limits"/being a whale attitude smells like a CN state orchestrated steady takeover attempt. One guy cannot move the needle.

The P90D pulls a much higher amperage out of the battery, plus the pedal curve is much steeper, hence nimble spirited driving feeling. The have IMHO a bigger buffer on the top and low end due to that plus a higher consumption. My 12/16 P90D is a "drinker", hence degradation. The balancing...

Nothingburger like the wokism stance. Creating gaslighting and fatalist projections to blur the lines. A fogbomb. 6 Billion people brought us to where we are ATM. +2°C and glaciers evaporating. Let us not discuss this here, otherwise we play by his textbook. Instead laser focus on his real...

That´s what I meant earlier with infantile. They lost their way. Full collision with Mini, plus the profits are toast. Is BMW now a small boyracer brand? WTF Guess the whole competition is effed besides Porschäää and Hyundai/KIA. Catch 22 to the fullest. You turn electric, You loose against...

Now let me guess. First post, we will never hear back. Groundhog day again.

Yes, and they lack the Mercedes touch. They kill their character all the way back to the design phase, so the design office has to be "refreshed" too ;) while Tesla sharpens the character once they go into mass production. PLAID syndrome.

Only if we´d get back the old Face, a matte black option or 21" aeros. Something about a potential PLAID M3 should be elusive and charismatic. but BTT

EQ line under fire: Excerpt from Mercedes-fans.de, one of the main independent Mercedes outlets and a litmus test publication about the general mood within the company: The Manager Magazin writes "Quarrels in the realm of the stars". It claims to have learned of internal squabbles in the...

Tesla in D is now up almost 6%. Unleashing the beast. More heads are rolling at Mercedes. This time Product strategy and Product planning. Plus the head CTO seems under fire. Guess the EQ line is having a hard time? "The Year of the Ape" the shape of things to come. "

Yesterday was a first taste. Today is part deux of the Coup de Grace. BYD already reacts, XPeng slashed prices (no luck in the US/Europe), while Mercedes replaces the head of AMG and TEV (premier group within Benz, consiting of Maybach, GWagon and AMG). Next heads will roll soon. Where will...

The serial downvotes have an inability to write more than one liners. Pressing a button is easier.

Pioneers! We still need images. Please. Thanks a ton.

We reached the bottom IMHO. A massive iron bottom made of competing metal no matter ICE or BEV brands. The Chinese EV Brands in the US are effed. No compelling products. Sceptizism. BMW is infantile in the Alfa days indifferent from Mini (CES). Benz over the top arrogant, also non compelling...

Source please

I mean- The architect seemed to have layed this all out. He now must sit in the ivory birdie tower and has the joy of his lifetime. Freddie Krueger (rand) on Friday 13th. The day the Auto industry changed.

Watch the „Coup de Grace“ Elon layed out and predicted to unfold. The 800 pound Gorilla is rising. Today the rules in the auto industry changed. We will witness damage.

Edward Chen- wait wasn’t that the judge that sued Tesla for the 85Kw Battery nerving? 🤔🤔 EDIT yes he was : UPDATE: Class Action Suit Cites 19 Issues With Tesla Software Update Seems to be specialized in Tesla cases. Also was involved in the rejection of opening a trial for the battery fires...

Nu avatar? Hope not a dead cat v why are you labeling her in that regard, dare to explain?

On another note here’s a playmate for The next time. TEH Bill Miller, IMHO always overrated. Of course promoted by Henry Blodget/BI https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/tesla-tsla-stock-price-bill-miller-short-competition-problem-valuation-2023-1

The more moderated Elon behaves, the better the stock performs. Correlation? I even see a PR emphasis on Tesla now. Franz talking Design tonight on DMC Ryan, more Elon interviews coming by the leading Tesla YT/Twitter guys etc. Let us hope he finds Tesla interesting again. Maybe the armwrestling...

Lets get back to BYD for a second- they are issueing cars under the project name "Warship" (seriously!), so the humor is out and gloves on, plus announced the small compact car, the Seagull for ~12k, which resembles a Bolt 2.0. Tuff for GM at last. So they chose to step into the "price war...

With the upgrade by Morgan Stanley, all we need is some Tweet from the man himself on the love of his life. His spoiled child of the last 2 months... The Birdie, the tunnels, the brain needle, heck even the Starship CANNOT be more important in his family...

Phantastic. Scored even in the executive class. And the pedestrian emergency stop is finally adressed, check out the videos. I mean they passed Volvo, Benz, 7 series et al, PLUS the S scored higher there than the Y!

Dunno if this was posted before, but the numbers seem spectacular in China, so Elons and his CN managers move seeme brilliant in hindsight: https://cnevpost.com/2023/01/10/tesla-gets-30000-orders-3-days-after-price-cut-china-report/

Very good post that sums it up. If this forum might be "monitored", "mined" and serves "interests", then "neutrality" is at play.

What is Your objective Tejas citizen? I thought the old thread was pretty balanced, almost no hate was spilled and the moderators, albeit not always neutral were doing a decent job. Then the guillotine fell and the thread was cut off. Now where do people let off steam and comment the daily...

It sounds like pressure is being applied from someone in the background. As long as we have contradictory and doubtful management actions from Texas, as long we’ll have the symptoms popping up here. That’s only natural. Shutting down threads and banning members cannot be the consequence. We...

The „coup de Grace“ starts now. In March we’ll get our perfume. The Texan artist had it all layed out Get it?

He is the sole cause for the price inflation at the superchargers too.

🎯agreed. The price raise was a bit too steep, too unnatural. Brilliant strategic move. However 115k for the MS LR is obscene tho it sports the power of the ex P100DL/Perfromance Raven. Guess they build them for max. 45-50k

And dare to repost this favorite pick by Herr Elon. What a machine. Look at the man, listen to what and how he says it here, the competition should tremble. The „iPhone Moment“ never was closer.

That’s the oldschool way of seeing it presented in various forms over the last three weeks. Obsolete since this afternoon. The scheme of things to come seems clear now. Raising prices when you could do it, and in a recovering market (saw German outlook- mild to no recession) slash prices, have...

Subarus never sold that well. It’s a Subaru face.

Plus, toys get old, especially if they don’t function. Finally sports. Arm wrestling in CN with BYDee ;)
