Another data point: Last I checked Model 3 LR crushed the competition from 45-65 MPH. Performance Model 3: Excited or Disappointed? (post 94)
Hopefully we'll have data on P3D soon but seems likely to be the same outcome.

some notes on porsche taycan review: Porsche reveals and explains the Taycan all-electric powertrain in detail
on battery development - "“It was a major challenge to achieve such enormous battery capacity both for charging and discharging over the entire temperature range,”
so what, its a 90KW battery to drives the distance of tesla 75D which has been available for years vs car coming to market end of 2019.
on charging - "“adding 400 kilometers in roughly fifteen minutes.”"
model 3 charges at 756 kilometers per hour on supercharger v1 (189 kilometers in 15 mins). game on!

these are rookie numbers. i'm close to 7k since beginning of mayI still keep test driving every chance I get, 9.3k miles since january

Or lease them to the LNR guy. I don’t want them in another business for a while.

I expect a rush of orders for the "old" design before it goes away, which is a fine thing. Some people like the old, some like the new, both will order.[/QUOTE]
A redesign should reduce costs of production. Streamlined model 3 electricals, improved procurement power, reduced man hours to build each car, and perhaps increase capacity with fewer employees. If parts are shared it will increase procurement contract strength. If they could make 10,000 more cars with fewer people, and refresh and improve the product at the same time, it will improve margins for the SX and model 3 as well. It will be interesting to see the timing. Probably too much happening altready to make a big change.

Didn't their battery manufacturer just announce that the cell that they intended to use has been delayed because of chemistry issues?some notes on porsche taycan review: Porsche reveals and explains the Taycan all-electric powertrain in detail

Got source? I was not aware of that as none of the fake news sites reporting Tesla fud reported on this!

The Tesla twitter account just liked this tweet Casey Neistat on Twitter
The main takeaway is that the estimate has to in the ballpark for Tesla to give it legitimacy with a like. Kudos to Zachary Shahan for getting close.

Any thoughts about the Chief Accounting Officer Tesla has just hired?
He gets a $10MM signing bonus stock option grant -- not too shabby.
Still, I wish Tesla would hire a super-qualified Chief Operating Officer.

Man these guys know how to sell stuff: ‘Model S, X and 3 can comfortably accommodate this surfboard on either the inside or outside of the vehicle.’
Edit: Some on Ebay already for 4k+. They do look cool being black on top and red on the bottom. I feel Elon could sell Tesla pitchforks if he wanted to and sell out in hours.
We need a Japanese speaker to properly translate this article:
パナソニック、ＥＶ電池セル３割増産 テスラ共同工場が世界最大に
Panasonic, EV battery cell 30% increase in production Tesla joint factory is the world's largest
I don't trust Bloomberg's take on it.

Bear with me, this is NOT off topic:
Recently there is a Chinese movie took the country by storm,
我不是药神 - 维基百科，自由的百科全书
While it talks about a much wider problem, one of the things it revealed, is that when it comes to pharmaceutical companies, China is behind India. Generic drugs, things like anti-biotics, ibuprofen, effectiveness of the Chinese products are lower, so that Chinese consumers are forced to pay sky high price for imported ones.
People found out that it is not only phama. chemical engineering in all different areas are affected, this include plastic, and batteries. Yes, batteries. Turned out the quality of the cells depends a lot on how well you can precisely control the combination of ingredients.
Now that this problem gained national attention, I am sure it will be solved. However this is not something can be done in several month. we are talking probably years.
So next time when news say about Tesla killers from China, maybe we should check on the level of imported generic drugs first.

They continue: "That leads us to charging. They say that their 800-volt system will enable the Porsche Taycan to reach a charging capacity of 350 kW"
Typical peak power delivery is probably begins to taper much after 50% SOC, which on an ~800V system (192S) is about 700V. To get 350KW delivered to the pack would require 500A at that voltage.
That will require liquid cooled connectors and cables... which could happen, but I've not heard of any of the "350KW" installations using those yet.
It also would require a 90KW pack to accept a charge rate of ~3.9C. That also is significant.
I'm going to go out on a limb and say that although the Taycan may be able to utilize a 350KW charger, I suspect it will never charge at 350KW...
Yeah, it's 350 kW using 1000 volts x 350 amps. Electrify America actually talks about 320 kW as a result as they don't believe anyone is working at 1,000 volts. Anyways, the Taycan is 800 volts and peak charging usually comes at nominal voltage, or about 87% of peak voltage. So that limits it to 245 kW (700 volts x 350 amps).
Actually, Porsche talks about 220 kW charging:
New Possibilities with 800-Volt Charging
That' s a bit older, but likely the actual peak charging will be in the 220-245 kW range.
He's wrong about that -- the Tesla will accelerate from 50 to 75 faster than a gas car.
There comes a point when an EV is approaching its top speed and a gasoline car *with gears* starts to get an advantage *from the gears*. It's substantially faster than that, though. You'd have to be at Autobahn speeds.
Porsche/ Audi/ VW - Clearly the world leader in EV press releases. Also, obviously, the ones to trust to put the truth in front of corporate profits When it comes to wholesale environmental damage (source: Porsche/ Audi/VW).
