Falling rain drops do not look at all like people think. They are basically flattened spheres. The surface tension of the water will pull the water together.What about falling raindrops?

Until we're building them as underwater vehicles, too..... :love:
I know - that's the one I was thinking of. Gee...I wonder where it is now:biggrin::biggrin::biggrin::biggrin:
Duh. I knew that. What was I thinking...Falling rain drops do not look at all like people think. They are basically flattened spheres. The surface tension of the water will pull the water together.
Tesla also has some precedent for trying the smaller battery/slower option: the Model S 40 kWh. I remember that Elon cancelled this car because it didn't drive sufficiently awesome enough. I seriously doubt they would revisit what the company considered to be a lackluster product.
So, where's the happy medium?
Long hood improves aerodynamics when you are driving backwards.
fish have big heads and long tails, remember?
Longer crumple zone on the other hand is true. But one can design a car to 'use' the crumple zone of the other car, like smart does.
Unfortunately that is only a fan-created render, but if Model 3 actually looked like this, I would buy it in an instant. I think that design is absolutely perfect.
Never claimed I had insider access and leaked an official Tesla rendering.
Of course it is just someone goofing around with some skill.
Does anyone else believe that this could be HUGE? As in, they are designing something totally new without blindly respecting any existing car design conventions?

Smart has that race car passenger cell that is not exactly lightweight for such a tiny car.
MPG 34 City and 38 Highway for such a tiny car is not acceptable.
Gross. Could do without the third picture

Elon said they're leaning towards a "radical" design rather than a smaller version of Model S.... That worries me a bit. I wasn't expecting them to actually shrink Model S down 20% and call it a day but he also said he didn't like "weirdmobiles". So, where's the happy medium?
