Do we have any idea yet how they plan to solve the charging port issue (with CCS used outside North America), as well as the electricity sockets?
And yes, those prices place it firmly in very niche territory.
Actually this is another somewhat worrying result. It’s all but impossible to avoid any flex in offroad conditions. The fact that could crack the roof does raise some concern for use in work environments.
This was probably the best video you’ve done. Did a good job highlighting areas Tesla could consider for development and the reality of this kind of offroad. Allows people to understand the strengths and the weaknesses of the vehicle.
I do wonder: surely someone must have tested the Rubicon in...
I actually like the fabric seats and the wheels. The latter have a nice, functional, brutalistic quality to them. Not a car only intended to be shown off during the school run.
It’s not a huge mass market hit because the pricing is currently completely mismatched with that goal. Something many others have already mentioned on this forum. After the hype of the original launch, and the super enticing pricing, many were then faced with prices 50% higher, or more. That...
Rather than the lolz it would probably be more useful for the community to support the guy, especially given that the replies were compassionate and (surprisingly enough) not a pile on on the Cybertruck.
Cheers, credit for going through with the whole ordeal. Would be great to see even longer videos (even the boring bits where it did well, as someone mentioned here).
While I don't know what Rivian was up to, one might imagine they were being prepared for all eventualities, including extraction. Probably makes sense if you're doing it as a car manufacturer. What's unclear is whether they needed said helicopter and all the available support. According to the...
Unfortunately no chance for a test drive for now as it's not road legal in Europe. Some day I definitely hope to properly get behind the ... uhm ... square.
Btw the Cybertruck was still at the Helsinki dealer today. That was a bit of a surprise as the staff said it was only there for the weekend. I wonder if they'll just leave it there as a permanent exhibition. There are quite many available, after all :)
Well, the F-150, in all variations, is a big car by European standards. It's good to hear the Cybertruck is manoeuvrable but without having some TARDIS type technology, it will stick out from parking spots here, and be a squeeze for width. Parking spots are just the size they are and four-wheel...
This is one of the major aspects that appeal to me in the Cybertruck. To be able to haul stuff and go through some rough terrain without having to worry about expensive dents and the onslaught of rust.
A lot of people ridicule the vehicle, saying it’s the stupidest thing they’ve seen. Now a big...
I’m sure it’s manoeuvrable enough but the issue is that parking spots are generally a bit too small for a vehicle like that here, not to mention parking halls. When I (rarely) see an American pickup parked, it will be sticking well out of the parking spot and be a very tight squeeze on width...
I've driven a whole bunch of vehicles with LED headlights. None of them had headlight washers. I don't remember when I've last seen a vehicle with washers. Perhaps they were under 2000 lumens, I'm not sure (and also not sure if that only applied to dipped beams).
Regardless, I'm pretty sure...
I believe survival rates above 16km/h are not actually as bad as you think. While it's not pleasant, for sure, it's not an immediate death sentence at all. And while hitting a pokey piece of steel is not individually the most likely thing to happen, once you put statistically enough of those...
