It is. Though it looks like it decreases the amount of bed space significantly. Guess it is a trade off.
FullThey should make the Range Extender for into the rear under bed storage, so we don’t have to compromise the full length bed utility.
What was meant (I think) was REAR under bed, where it is maximally far from anything useful, maximizes the moment of inertia of the truck, and is maximally exposed in a collision. Hard to imagine a better spot.
Option C: No news yet, as expected.Any news on this thing or vaporware?
No, because it's a non-factory add on, just like every other aftermarket/ dealer installed accessory.Will Tesla have to change the payload sticker on the Truck when people have the range extender installed in their Truck since it will be permanently attached?
One charge port.I'm interested in how the repair centers will tap into the Battery cooling and the HV Battery electrical system. Will there be two ports to charge? if not which Battery will charge first or will they charge at the same time from a single charge point?
The Caresoft Teardown video from Autoline references a single RE connection on the battery pack.One charge port.
Range extender will likely be two 400V bricks and connect in parallel with the main pack halves. Either four HV cables, four contactors, and no series/parallel switch or two cables, two contactors, and an internal mode switch.
May get plumbed inline after the main pack, but they might also add an active valve since they live in different environments.
They are idiots*.The Caresoft Teardown video from Autoline references a single RE connection on the battery pack.

It won't be a switchover from one pack to the other. It will always be in the loop.What will be the lowest the Main Battery will get before the Aux. Battery kicks in? Will it be an automatic transfer or will it have an automatic/manual transfer to the Aux. Battery so you control the switch over from the Screen or just have it automatically switchover once it reaches a certain level? Will you be able to set the level at which the Aux. Battery will kick in?
Theoretically the same as it is now if the charge station can supply 50% more power.What would be the average charge time if you were to run the Truck to 10% and charged to 80%?
