the lack of batteries could have only a victim in Tesla production line: the Semi. A Semi eats up so many batteries that Tesla could just scrap the project and focus on cars only (if I recall correctly, you can power 8 Model Y with 1 Semi's batteries alone).
the CT is going to be extremely...
I don't know... I preordered a CT because I love the idea of driving an armored veichle that fears no scratch. A wrap negates this, completely. As soon as your wrap is scratched, the underlying steel is going to shine through like a lit lamp.
I am more interested in the possible option to laser...
I don't want a much smaller CT. Slightly, ok. But not much smaller. We have big trucks in Europe! Also: this is not a ciry car. It's an off-road beast: why bother about narrow streets? CT can drive through walls! Please le me sign a petition to import CT to Europe. I preordered one: so, what the...
I think the interior is the only think Telsa is doing wrong in Cybertruck. The outer parts are made to be as hardened, rugged, resiliente, unbreakable and bulletproof possible.
The interiors, at the opposite, show clear leather seats, a paper dash and, of course, the tablet interface to the...
We have seen that a glass roof can sustain an incredible amount of force (2 men can climb on a Model S glass roof and it won't flinch). But this happens because the glass roof is curved. The curve itself makes it extremely strong, just in old roman bridges.
So: CT has all flat glasses. Ok, they...
just ordered a dual motor (as promised, when my Tesla chairs reached $200k).
mine was order RN1194349. I live in Italy so I am unsure on what this number really means...
About the pedestrian safety: shouldn't auto brake system + self driving be enough to qualify CT as safer than normal cars with smoother edges? No hit is better than a soft hit!
I thought that the easiest way to make it smaller, shorter and lighter is to make it a 3 seater. In Europe, most families have 1 or no kids. But, anyway, CT is an utility truck: it's not something you are expected to use to use for going shopping
But what is the real problem with a CT in Europe? As others have pointed out, it's not a size problem F150 Raptor is bigger than CT and it's legal. The "pedestrian safety" argument can be valid, but it all depends on what they are going to evaluate the real thing in the end (just like the side...
Ciao from Italy,
I preordered a Model 3, then did a test drive and realized it's damn too low to the ground. Iwas intrigued by CT since the reveal, so I have now switched to this beast, at least technically. Until we know wether there will be an european version or not (and, if so, how different...
