SpaceX will be launching Spaceship Flight 3 soon, so I thought I'd share some links for people to watch and comment: Official SpaceX link: https://www.spacex.com/launches/mission/?missionId=starship-flight-3ZZ X: https://twitter.com/SpaceX Everyday Astronaut on youtube: NASASpaceflight on...

Here's a video from Out of Spec reviews where they discuss and compare the warranty and wording of what is covered by the Tesla Cybertruck Warranty. Seems it offers Tesla a very large opportunity NOT to cover your repair costs should parts fail, and exceeds what other manufacturers offer in...

I think with the advent of EV's people need to re-adjust their expectations and form factor for hauling gear, tools and RV and simply get a EV "van" instead for hauling on a trailer. In essence on first principles, a vehicle is simply a platform which can move from place to place. A magic...

I thought this was funny and a testament to the capabilities of the SS skin of the Cybertruck doors: This is Matts video with the quartermile results versus the Hummer EV. Note the lack of difference with an extra four people onboard. Apparently, they needed to do a OTA in the field first...

Hey people! I would really like to point out that there are a lot of bits of information to digest here and that I would suggest to hold off cancelling any orders until things settle down and the facts and options are clear. I also think the pricing might be revised, but It could also stay...

Good morning American peeps. :sleep: Today is the day of good tidings. :oops: Many Cybertruck things will we learn. 🤓 I started the 30th November a day early, but I'm going to keep my eyes peeled and not go to bed until I see all that can be seen on the 1st... Hope you are all excited and...

I just wanted to post this as a recap on some discussions that we have had over months and years, before we get some actual details from the delivery event, which will confirm how it was solved. As most of us know, increasing the voltage of a EV system comes with various benefits, not all of...

I've been holding off posting a list of the things I would like to see, and expect to see at least some of, in the CT reveal tomorrow. What I'd like to see in tomorrows release: Fully integrated V2X capability, or a variation of it like V2G/V2V Low voltage DC input for direct solar PV...

I thought I'd make a dedicated thread for this discussion to share thoughts on how the structural pack design works, in response to discussions on various other threads. Model Y 4680 Structural pack as reference These are some pictures I grabbed from Monroes teardown the 4680 to get an idea of...

(Artist impression) Haven't seen this posted here yet. Looks like EM announced to Tesla staff in Berlin this weekend that the Model 2 will be built in Giga Berlin. Starting price is 25,000 Euro. Apparently, they already have the building approvals to double the factory in Berlin to do so, so...

I'm not sure if this clip has been posted yet, but I haven't found it here so far. Video was posted by NFS on 8th October 2023. CT Highlights: Turning at orbital pad 1:49 CT towing Raptor engine 2:44 Filming CT on highway 4:00 CT and Raptor versus drone 5:27 Enjoy some nice closeups and...

There was some discussion on various threads about using slipstreaming or drafting to extend EV range. This is when vehicles follow each other closely to minimize aerodynamic drag and therefore reduces energy consumption. I thought it would be interesting to discuss this in more detail, and...

EM recently tweeted that they now have a 280kmh (174mph) wind rated Starlink dish that is optimized for moving marine applications. The new device is 575mm (22") x 511mm (20") but now is mounted with an angled bracket and no longer needs to track or be mounted on a pole, meaning it would be...

There has been various discussions through this forum about which motor variations will be released first and in particular why people think so. I have been trying to get the message across to people that unlike a ICE vehicle, adding a extra motor to the CT isn't actually quite such a big deal...

Space X and T-Mobile announced a few hours ago that they will launch a new mobile phone service that will be compatible with most existing mobile phones, by emulating a cell tower in space on a v2 Starlink satellite. This means worldwide coverage using Starlink v2 and your existing mobile! Key...

As of this morning you can now order a Tesla Model Y in Australia (Yay!): Model Y Rear Wheel Drive with 455km range - $77,821 Model Y Performance Dual Motor 514km range - $110,026 for delivery between November 2022 - February 2023 in Australia here...

The first one is mostly about the effects of Optimus on earth and Mars, and SpaceX going to Mars. An interesting comment is that "1 minute" of Elon's time can be worth up to a million when doing things for Tesla. Is that video donation of time worth $60million? The dimensions of operation are...

Looks like EM has gone nuclear and has filed to the SEC to buy all of Twitter’s shares for $54.20 each – a total of $41.4bn based on 763.58m shares outstanding. EM said: “I invested in Twitter as I believe in its potential to be the platform for free speech around the globe, and I believe...
