Model 3 is Officially Model Ξ

[Breezy]

Ugh. So contrived and pretentious. Oh well, it's just a name. Err, a symbol. Or a stack of plates.

 

[Curt Renz]

Tesla should call it Model E. Let Ford sue and appear ridiculous for attempting to do so. The courts would likely invalidate a claim to a model name briefly used over a century ago for a car that was simply called the Delivery Car in catalogs. The media coverage of a court fight would get Tesla free advertising and public sympathy.

 

[PTADO]

Happy. Very happy.

 

[Fallenone]

Or like this 三

 

[malcolm]

Fourteenth letter of the Greek alphabet. Nowhere near an E

But Model Xi will get the rumor mill running all over again.

Ford will probably try to sue Tesla based on the reason mentioned above by tga... which actually seems like a logical reasoning o.o and like you said, it'd look quite sad if Ford tries to wing it and sue Tesla. It's actually quite annoying how quick other ICE companies like GM or Ford will jump on any move Tesla makes to try to prevent the inevitable ass-beating they're about to get.

I think it looks good

<-- see?

 

[SureValla]

so which is it? ≡ (alt 240) or Ξ (alt 926)

 

[ELRev]

≡ (alt 240). All 3 lines are even on the invite.

 

[Twiglett]

I have been using ☰ which seems to be different from either of them

 

[internauts]

I was not able to succeed following the "Alt 240" instructions. I found the character using the Windows Character Map. The search terms “identical to” will quickly locate it if available within the particular font type. I found it in Arial and several others that I commonly use.

 

[Red Sage]

MODEL 3 is...

≡ -- IDENTICAL TO ( U+2261 )

☰ -- HEAVEN ( U+2630 )

;-)

 

[M0DEL³]

Is this just me, or should not this be referred to as either the Model 7 or perhaps maybe the model 21?

 

[Krugerrand]

Okay, thank you to all my non-Google friends, I think I got it: ≡

But I have a question. When first owners are accosted in a parking lot and asked, 'What kind of car is that?" Do they answer:

A) It's a Tesla Model 3
B) It's a Tesla Model E
C) It's a Tesla formerly known as Model E, formerly known as Model 3

A) It's a Tesla Model 3
B) It's a Tesla Model E
C) It's a Tesla formally known as Model E, formally known as Model 3

formerly you mean (for the former, not the latter)

It's a Tesla Model 3. Whatever stylized 3 they use, it doesn't change the fact that the car is a Tesla Model 3.

Okey, dokey. So when people go to the DMV, their registration papers will have a regular 3 on it. Boring.

 

[Red Sage]

You could always fill out the paperwork as 'TESLA MODEL THREE' if you prefer...

Well, what would stop people then from filling out Tesla Model ≡ ?
