Bloomberg already posted an article today about how difficult it is to road trip in a Tesla in Europe
Bloomberg - Are you a robot?
Elon Musk on Twitter
The 75 kWh version of the S and X is getting discontinued. I’m guessing 100 will become the new standard and we will see an even bigger battery pack, switch to 2170s and V3 supercharging capability.
Since end of 2018 and even now.. Tesla doesn't have anything other than 100D and P100D Model S for inventory.
I'm surprised, that you can see it that way.We should also remember the recent 'Fred Tax' on Tesla: the -$5k per Model 3 Performance retroactive price cuts that his whining caused - that's an expense that is going to burden Q4'18 and Q1'19 profits.
.
What? Which S has 215 miles max range? S60 which was discontinued many years ago? You know instantly this is a hit piece.
FYI, Model 3 EU homologation should appear as new rows in the following datasets:

Did anyone see this yet?
Young Kelvin Yang is at it again, digging up interesting information on Tesla's dealings in China.
Like for GF1, Tesla was apparently shopping for locations in China with a losing city having offered a 3 G$ low-interest loan, indicating that Shanghai's terms must be even better,

On my request he dug up something akin to a reference (from a Chinese social media site):

I would not be surprised if a more firm confirmation would surface.
I think that was just C'alien's subtle barb at OI's unsubtle pronouncification of that very country's name.Or perhaps a full trade war with China.
(Actually, I think the motivations in China mean we're never going to get a *full* trade war; they still want Tesla to manufacture there, for example, and they still want to buy up US companies, and...)
-All 18650 supply will instead be redirected toward Supercharger V3 storage, Tesla energy, as well as Megacharger/solar storage applications. Makes sense IMHO for the lower energy density cells to be used in stationary applications, I’d think. 18650 packs will be located onsite at Superchargers and charged off the grid to support higher, sustained charging for multiple Supercharger stalls at once. V3 power rate (for a Supercharger station as a whole) will exceed the capabilities of the local grid, and will enable (for example) a virtually infinite number of stalls to charge at the 150kW-180kW rate, and sustained up to what the car’s pack can handle. So you and your Supercharger neighbor can both plug in at the same time and charge at 180kW until the pack is at 70% SOC for example.
OK, since both the US and EU markets are closed, I will explain it to you:
Tesla's CEO already managed to involve himself in what is effectively state-level diplomatic intercourse (that's when one of the top guys in the world's most popular country publicly tells you: "We hope that your company can become an in-depth participant of China's opening and a promotor of the stability of US-China relations").
So I would be delusional if I thought that my comment on that and on the destabilizing, delusional and allegedly criminally stupid POTUS on social media would have even the slightest, additional impact on Tesla.
I do however concede that with the POTUS's narcisistic need for attention, Musk may very well have made himself an enemy of the POTUS by so blatantly stealing the limelight exactly during the time when the White House is trying to untangle itself from the mess it got itself into with China.
OT
Have you paid attention to the NIMBY resistance to cables at the base of Lake Champlain? To underground pipelines? There will ALWAYS be NIMBY resistance, to ANYTHING.
I would be interested to know if that is how the rules work in Germany. Here in the US, property owners often own their property "to the center of the Earth", and yeah, they WILL complain...
It's a good technological solution. Just, y'know, there are more NIMBYs than you imagine.
TSLA$ Pre Market red -1.30 % What's the problem today ?
Maybe the hit-robot Blooming site was unaware of this exquisite service: A Better RouteplannerFurthermore, note the between Paris and Mannheim, there is excellent Supercharger support, the drive between each is 145-160km - if I were driving that route, I'd stop at each one for roughly 15 minutes. Stretch my legs, have a pee, relax, love it!
