    Model S range and interior update imminent?

    Yep. Currently you can get a brand new Performance Model S for $91,990 with Ludicrous Mode and Autopilot included. The Plaid Model S will start at $139,990. That's a $48,000 (52.2%) price increase. If Tesla doesn't have plaid until late 2021, I hope they release a version with the 2170 cells...

    Efficient Tire/Wheel Comobo for road trips

    I got the wheels today and I decided to go with Goodyears Eagle Exhilarate 255/50/19, but they wont be in until Monday. The Continentals diameter was a little too far away from the OEM's for my liking. The Goodyears add two pounds per wheel, but they have the same tread-width and provide a...

    Efficient Tire/Wheel Comobo for road trips

    My LR+ with 22" can go about 236 miles at 80mph, and that's if I want to go from 100-0% With OEM 20" wheels/tires I could get 277 miles (a 17.67% improvement) 5% improvement over 20" = 291 miles at 80mph 10% improvement over 20" = 305 miles at 80mph 15% improvement over 20" = 319 miles at...

    Efficient Tire/Wheel Comobo for road trips

    I'm thinking about an ultra light weight/narrow combo for road trips. T-Sportsline 19x8.5" wheels (25 lbs) XTREME CONTACT 245/50 R19 105Y XL (27 lbs) That puts the wheel & tire weight at 52 lbs, or 53 lbs if I stick 255 tires on the rear. OEM tire/wheel weight combo: 62.6 lbs (20" slip...

    Is this road rash, or did Discount Tire damage and then paint it?

    Recently had a flat fixed. I do not remember hitting a curb. The car is 2 months old. What do you guys think? Is the primer black like this or did they paint it? The wheel was covered in gew after it was repaired. They appolagized for that and then asked me to leave because they were closing...

    Revision E battery and range upgrade?

    When I got my LR+ (ordered 2/28, picked up 3/1) they tried to sell me a December build so I could drive it home the same day. At the time I didn't know about revision F, but when I asked if it would be eligible for the range upgrade the salesman said the cutoff date was around...

    Chrome Delete on Red MX

    LR+ Delivery Range

    We don't have the EPA estimates for the Model X LR with 22" wheels, but we do for the performance version: Performance -305 miles with 20" wheels -272 miles with 22" wheels Long Range -351 miles with 20" wheels -??? miles with 22" wheels 272/305*351=313.022 I think you'll have to drive like...

    LR Model X gained 210 pounds (95 kg) over 100D

    The GVRP stayed at 6,788 lbs (3079 kg). However, the rear and front GAWR changed: Front 100D: 3,097 lbs Front LR: 3,241 lbs Rear 100D: 3,690 lbs Rear LR: 3,792 lbs That means the new GVRP should be 7,033 lbs (+/- 2lbs) A few other changes I noticed: -Turning circle increased from 38.8 ft to...

    LR Model X gained 210 pounds (95 kg) over 100D

    The last time it gained weight was when it changed from 90D to 100D (154 pounds) 90D Owners Manual Tesla claims the 100D and LR still have the same weight when it comes to the Model S, though.

    LR Model X gained 210 pounds (95 kg) over 100D

    Why did the Model X gain 210 pound when it switched from 100D to Long Range? The Model S stayed the exact same. X 100D: 5,421 pounds (100D Owners Manual) X Long Range : 5,631 pounds (Long Range Owners Manual) S 100D: 4,883 pounds (100D Owners Manual) S Long Range : 4,883 pounds (Long Range...

    Model X with no kids?

    I walked in expecting to get an S, maybe a Model 3. I walked away with an X because I liked the windshield, the doors, the sound system and the extra space. I really wish I had the range of a Model S, though. The 22" inch wheels eat your battery.

    Impulse buy. Just took delivery of an X LR+.

    They pretty much told me the same thing, but when I told them LR+ or bust they made it happen. Being out of state and in a rush helped too, I'm sure. This? Version F. The Raven is dead. I didn't quite get it to 100%, but I got it to 351.

    Impulse buy. Just took delivery of an X LR+.

    I'm not sure what's new on this car other than the range, but there is a wireless charger and I'm pretty sure the Model X didn't have that before. Is there anything I should be looking for? On our way to the airport from Disneyland I asked the driver to drop us off at Tesla. That was...

    Devoted Teslonian now developing a resentment

    Blog Tesla to Reduce Production of Model S, Model X

    I highly doubt there are more than a handful of people at Tesla that can confidently and accurately tell you what all their departments are working on. The production line at almost any company had no idea what R&D is working on. The 75 became obsolete once they released the Dual Motor 3. The...

    Poll - why dropping the 75 S/X?

    I'm pretty sure weight is a huge factor. From what Tesla submitted to the EPA, the battery on the 100D is 28.2% of the vehicles weight. Cutting the batteries in half is losing 14.1% of the weight. Less battery also means less shield and less cooling, further reducing the weight. Now that the...

    Poll - why dropping the 75 S/X?

    They are preparing to launch a revamped X and S that are built for the new cells In the future Tesla will decrease the kWh it's cars, but the range will stay the same because the car will be lighter (higher energy density cells + improvements to design). Many may perceive this as...

    Rumored 130 kWh Model S in light of Roadster announcement

    Tesla has either loaded these 2170's with silicone or they are switching to solid state. Solid state will have at least double the energy density, it can charge quicker, and it could be ready as soon as 2020. High premium from 3rd party manufacturer + low production levels = Roadster and Semi...

    Shocked by the new Roadster rolling out of the Tesla Semi!

    Well, the new 2170 cells are 46.6143% larger by volume and only 16.6667% larger in diameter. That alone should allow a 25% increase in energy. Given moderate improvement in chemistry and a more efficient layout of the cells and I can image a 50% increase on kWh.... but 100% over the Model S...

    Shocked by the new Roadster rolling out of the Tesla Semi!

    This is insane, and obviously all made possible by this mysterious 200kwh battery place. Any estimates on battery specs? Also, how many kwh will the semi have? 1,000 kwh? 80% in 30 minutes?!?!?! Who cares about the roadster and semi... tell me about the batteries!

    Better car/options for my $45K challenge

    This! And if you're buying a Civic, Camry, Accord, etc there is a good chance you plan on keeping your car 10+ years. This means cost to own savings are even greater. Owners could easily save over 20k with tax credits over the life of the vehicle. Just ask my 1999 Accord. The transmission went...

    Would Elon Bring a Fleet of Lincoln Navigators to a Meeting with Google?

    IIHS 2016 EV/Hybrid Crash Tests - Video

    Super disappointing. The Model S doesn't just come to a stop when it hits the wall, it bounces back. I can't imagine how hard that would be on your neck. By comparison, the Volvo S90 just keeps on chuggin'

    Chevy Bolt - 200 mile range for $30k base price (after incentive)

    Are they asking you to convert in every 7,500 miles/once a year? They could easily charge $300 for an anual inspection (high margin) and upsell on windshield wipers, brakes etc. Electric cars could be the greatest thing to happen to dealerships.
