To me it seems Tesla pretty good at for every 50kwh battery size you get about 200 miles of range. For 500 mile range they need around 125 kwh pack...My estimate of 130-140kwh seems plausible. I think they can definitely squeeze 320miles out of a 100 kwh pack in dual motor np. 500 mile could be...
I wouldn't mind some trail cruising... definitely no rock climbing...tires are crazy $$$ then the hassle of changing it in the wilderness. Hard pass lol
Gonna use it for truck things and daily activities ?
The only info that is useful is the info that states it will take about 6% to travel 16 miles. If we broke it down to 5% for every 16 miles for easier math...that makes it about 320 miles.
If we guess that the efficiency is 400wh/mile...we get about 128 kwh pack....but my guess for dual motor...
For those that don't know....the charge rate is not linear.
There are a lot of interesting information provided by the leaked video...I think CT will have a pretty large pack if at 71% SOC @ 77kwh and 55 mins left to full. My guess is 120kw at the bare minimum.
Because we don't know driver usage and driving behaviors, the best guess is using the charge rate and SOC with the already added 50kw and knowing that it will take an additional 55 mins to charge. We know it tapers off at the end. I'm trying to figure out how many more kwh is needed for that...
I think they finally got the correct parts spec for the hood...prob some pieces had to be retooled....the alignment looks way better on that specimen. Lol
Order numbers aren't going to matter much if the pricing is 20% higher....so many ppl are gonna fall off they're prob just gonna open all the slots they have. First ones to put down deposits and simplest configuration will be be first owners. With that many reservations they won't care who's first.
I hope Elon has like 20 differently wrapped Trucks on display at the event. I'm sure the tommy gun one will be found somewhere close by. Their promotional video they will showcase will be pretty cool I would imagine.
Not sure why people are so worried about the frunk and lack of nets/cubbies....the aftermarket will have tons of options from nets to coolers to hard cover cases and cubbies.
Wow so much energy in this one post....listen to the whole podcast several times...my takeaway 3 versions...dual....tri...tri with beast mode....
My hot take...dual will come later...first options are tri and tri with beast mode( performance )...
Tri - Beast ( beast mode )
Under 3 seconds 0-60...
From watching the stock for years. The stock reflects more of how the social storyline is vs actual numbers. If the stock was just based strictly on numbers then not sure why the stock tanks at all, because the numbers are amazing. But if Elon farts then the stock takes a nose dive. If he's...
I do believe the IRA credit is based on the MSRP for the vehicle before options. I do not believe a tri motor will start under $85k. That was always the halo trim and didn't need to be super affordable. The dual motor on the other hand needs to be around $60k after ira. A dual CT cannot be the...
Could be legit....price is about what I think a tri motor would be. If dual motor was also raised by the same percentage then about $63k, my guess was $65k....time will tell.
I think they can sell 20k $100K cybertrucks next year. But I'm not in a hurry and would still want a 2025 year model with lots of bugs already been fixed. Exciting times!
People your are forgetting using a whole new 800v architecture with 1 mw charging capabilities.
The design and r&d with that alone must've been massive, prob co developed with the semi. Stainless steel is still way more expensive now then first debut in 2019. When the whole car is covered in it...
I used to be a dual motor RSVP....at $50k...but it's unrealistic to think we can have all the specs he announced in 2019 as the basic spec....
For $60k now...with dual motor...
No adjustable suspension
No 4 wheel steering
Cheaper wheels & tires
No 240 volt or air compressor
Not bullet proof...
Because he like to have aspirational goals of what the price could be. And likes to shock and awe. If he didn't reveal very stunning prices, then there wouldn't be 1 million + "reservations".
I think those launch prices were always to good to be true. But those prices keeps soo many ppl waiting...
