    Footwell lights

    I was wondering about the footwell lights on my SR+. Mine flash on for an instant when I open the door so they’re definitely there. Also, I currently have the satellite view on maps, which I never had and believe is not part of SR+, and I seem to recall that I had the puddle lights with tesla...

    No crumple zone?

    I would assume there is a tubular structure internally. Furthermore, given that the steel is 3mm thick, I assume that there are ‘channels’ on the inside of the sheet steel that are thinner, thereby creating an opportunity for the sheet metal to crumple in a pre-ordained manner. Much like if you...

    I can confirm that Applegreen has changed their strategy wrt charge points and Tesla will no longer be able to place Superchargers on Applegreen’s service areas

    Blog Tesla Announces Supercharger Push in Urban Areas

    I wonder if they'll make these available to businesses instead of destination chargers? I was looking at getting a few HPWCs for outside my gyms, but a couple of these would be much better. Ideal energy delivery rate for someone having a 1-2 hour workout.

    Micro hydro to power my Teslas, what infrastructure do I need?

    Car and Driver-2015 Tesla Model S 70D is The car of the century

    "The big news here is a pair of 257-hp (Tesla’s before-the-transmission rating, the post-gearbox rating is 329 combined horsepower) AC motors " - I always thought there was no gearbox!?

    Elon "About to end range anxiety"

    Don't know whether it's already been punted, but how about an 'on the move' recharge in the same way as military aircraft refuel. It ties in with Elon's self managing 'snake-like' charge cable and the ability to speed match multiple vehicles (as has been done by Volvo with their autonomous...

    Tesla Go To Market Strategy

    Don't know whether it has ever been discussed anywhere before, but why is there this insistence that Tesla needs to build a mass market vehicle? There are numerous ICE car manufacturers that are able to thrive and survive without one, and with Tesla's innovative approach to marketing and...

    Gen III or Gen IV Battery Rental Idea

    The Renault Zoe is sold in that way over here in Europe. Low-ish capital cost plus monthly lease for the battery pack. The lease costs roughly the same as one might spend monthly on gas in an ICE vehicle.
