I'm not sure how old this graphic is but it implies that there's only about 200k electric vehicles sold. Is there more to this like this is only from one manufacturer or is it super old, like 7+ years ago? I guess when stuff like that shows up in a graphic I start to question the data behind it as it doesn't seem to add up.that Aldrich Batista guy sure does post some good content. Just found this infographic while looking at some of his old posts. Good for when you need to debunk the next round of FUD on vehicle fires.
Did we really lose jbcarioca? Can someone try to contact him in private?While it's still weekend...
So like that, @jbcarioca as a member is gone.
To me at least, for the last 5+ years hanging out here, @jbcarioca was a rare member with unique perspectives which no other could have provided and he shared here generously and frequently and therefore, the value of this thread was enhanced vastly during his tenure here.
Certain (maybe just one?) members with special privilege have an uncanny "talent" of driving away the most valuable contributors. Such contributors have exceedingly high signal-to-noise ratio. But nobody is perfect. I hate to speculate loudly why certain special member(s) is extra sensitive and harsh toward occasional "transgressions" from such contributors, while let some prolific trolls slide day in and day out. In an ideal world, such valuable contributors should be granted special privilege/immunity. Alas, I guess all good things must come to an end
If true, it will be yet another significant loss to this forum/ thread. I'll reserve judgment on why until we confirm.Did we really lose jbcarioca? Can someone try to contact him in private?
I hope they are actually able to tell the fires in recently sold cars from those of the existing fleet. Otherwise the Fires/100k sales number would be garbage..that Aldrich Batista guy sure does post some good content. Just found this infographic while looking at some of his old posts.

I can't find his name when doing a member search. I don't post much but this is disheartening if true. I liked jbcarioca's insights and perspectives, it's definitely a loss for the forum if he's gone. Anyone know what happened?If true, it will be yet another significant loss to this forum/ thread. I'll reserve judgment on why until we confirm.
So um…yeah, this is all great, or not, my question is is the weekend finally over yet?

Perhaps this site needs a disclaimer of potential discussion with certain trigger words? Warning would include warning to readers that such things might take place and that posters might shut down sub topics.
I think Numbers trigger some folks here, that could be added to "the list". These things don't trig me, but I understand others can be obtuse. I don't take sides on such things as I don't have an angle.
What else triggers people here?
They are 100% charging lower rates and eating the losses for some reason. It's a VW subsidiary, so I wouldn't be shocked to see them do this as an attack on Tesla etc.Supercharger - Pigeon Forge, TN
We ate a couple of different times while charging at the Junction 35 Distillery Restaurant. Lots to offer. Both times three generations of family members were happy with the meal. Thanks! We'll likely charge twice at this SC so will be able to try this and the Mellow Mushroom.teslamotorsclub.com
don't be fooled by TMCs interpretation/summation of the link.
Is EA selling electricity at or below cost on purpose or are they just slower than Tesla to adjust pricing?
Could affect the so called supercharger advantage.
If there's 25 fires for every 100,000 EVS sold how can the total of fires equal 52?that Aldrich Batista guy sure does post some good content. Just found this infographic while looking at some of his old posts. Good for when you need to debunk the next round of FUD on vehicle fires.
Quicker delivery perhaps…Interesting, was thinking Tesla already had too much demand..
Tesla China launches compelling ICE-to-EV trade-in program
Tesla’s order books in China may already be long, as hinted at by the delivery estimates of the locally-made Model 3 and Model Y, but the electric vehicle company is still aggressively pushing to get more customers.

Medium term plan must be that all Shanghai output never leaves the continent. They want to ramp that factory to 1.5 million / year or maybe more and sell everything as close to on the spot as possible. Need to stoke demand for the future which is probably only 18 months away as Berlin and Texas ramp.Interesting, was thinking Tesla already had too much demand..

If this is true, I wish some of these improvements would trickle down to EAP. I’m tired of the errant ‘Forward Collision Warning” on the same stretch of 2-lane road a mile from home.
I agree. I am about to leave for a long road trip and would love to have auto lane change. But $6k for auto lane change is ridiculous. If they offered it for $2k I would buy immediately.
He was part of a discussion that was off topic, as I was. I don’t remember that he started it I think he just replied. There was a strong mod blast about going off into the weeds. I suspect a man in his position isn’t used to being talked to in that tone. Perhaps we all could take a break from aggressive responses.I can't find his name when doing a member search. I don't post much but this is disheartening if true. I liked jbcarioca's insights and perspectives, it's definitely a loss for the forum if he's gone. Anyone know what happened?
So if this theory is correct, it would mean Tesla is quite confident in ramping the factories!Medium term plan must be that all Shanghai output never leaves the continent. They want to ramp that factory to 1.5 million / year or maybe more and sell everything as close to on the spot as possible.
