    EMEA EoY 2023/2024 beginning Model X deliveries

    Is anyone here waiting for new Model X delivery in EMEA end of year 2023 or 2024 beginning? Do you already have VIN and/or ship confirmation? Are you hoping for a 2024 VIN? Furthermore, how do you feel about the price disparity between US and EMEA? Would you order a MX LR if it was 80k €...

    Poll: would a Tesla vision operated lawnmower (perhaps via licensing) make a good low hanging fruit mvp for FSD?

    Is the concept of a Tesla-controlled lawnmower that leverages Tesla's self-driving technology a worthy idea? In addition to autonomously trimming the lawn, it would offer offering a safe testing ground for Tesla Vision. Lessons learned could be useful at least for Summon and Optimus, and...

    CyberTruck (CT) waiting room

    Past waiting rooms have been a blast so decided to start one for the CT. Let's go! I myself am in the "Other Europe" region so I don't even have the option to order yet (I wouldn't want the first few years batch any ways 😉 sour grapes). My wishes for the CT are that it would have performance...

    Phone charging cable melted into my MAXpider floor mats

    My phone charging cable often hangs loose in the car and was surprised to find this today morning, it had melted into the MAXpider floormat: Just a heads-up. Probably same mat material is used in other mats too. My guess is it is partly conductive and acts as a resistor and heats up to melting...

    Floating dyno speedboat - drive on water

    I came up with an interesting idea that you would have a boat onto which you would drive your car into. You would then proceed to strap your car onto the boat as if the boat was a dyno. The wheel motion would then be converted into propeller thrust in the water (could be side paddle-wheel...

    Dragy times for Plaid and LR

    Similar to the dragy thread for refresh Model S, would be nice to hear dragy pull results for the refresh Model X. Also, would be interesting to see video content of races between different X variants, past, and present.

    S and X from Giga Texas, Berlin, and Shanghai

    If Tesla, encouraged by the implied demand for S/X refresh models, began manufacturing them also in other car Giga factories (namely Giga Texas, Berlin, and Shanghai for the time being) - which one would you want? For fun factor, let's assume it would only speed up your delivery timeline.

    Considering ID.Buzz

    With all the delays and everything, I'm wondering, what would be needed for me to opt for ID.Buzz instead of Model X? They are almost same length and width. What do you think? For me the deal breakers would be mid 2 second 0-60 performance and 350 mile EPA range, all the rest is easily covered...

    Refreshed 2021+ Model X and Model X Plaid waiting room

    There will be no more "pre refresh" RHD Model S/X, but there does seem to be a commitment of some LHD Model S reaching Europe by March and X later in the year. This means some EU orders placed last year can still be filled at the old price with the older model. Would be interesting to read...

    Higher voltage for charging?

    Aston Martin says they use 18650 format cylindrical cells in a 800V configuration for significantly quicker fast charging. If you couple similar batteries in parallel you retain voltage, and in series you double voltage. If high voltage is the key to charging, wouldn't it be as simple as to...

    I am trying to find information about differences, in safely passing at highway speeds (on a two-lane highway), between Tesla M3, S75D, S100D, and PS100D. Tesla quotes "1.2 seconds passing speed 45-65 mph" in the MS configurator for P100D, but it's hard to immagine how this looks like in...

    What range would be possible for Model S with latest Model 3 battery technology?

    And would it affect performance? Looking at the specs the MS dimensions are 196"x86.2" while M3 dimensions are 184.8" x 82.2". This makes the MS roughly 11,2% larger than the M3, which would indicate a possible 89kwh battery for MS and MX.
