Wireless charging is very inefficient. Just note how the phone docking ports on the CT work or not work. That is only to charge a phone. Tesla will have do more work on that. It may be at location and a charging coils elevate to be close to car to make efficient charging. Transferring...

Renault division of Stalantis?

No electrocution and no sharks. What happened? Did facts got in the way of politics.?

I may have used the wrong term. Die Casting is the proper term for injection molding at high pressure of aluminum or zinc. Cast iron is liquid iron poured into a mold and not injected at high pressure. Your links explain that well. I have worked on products where liquid aluminum was injected...

It is injection molded and not casted. Injection molding is done under high pressure. Giga casting is really injection molding at giga pressures, high pressure needed due to the size of the structure.

I believe the whole casting is defective. Missing metal means that there is probably porousity in rest of casting, I would demand a replacement.

Try anti static spray on your seats..

Price and production rate of corvettes?

Then the current limiter in CT is not working correctly.

Did you limit the charging amperage to less than the breaker amperage? In my MS, the charging menu in the car, the amperage maximum can be limited.

The regenerative process should do most of the work without over heating brakes much like engine braking except better. The actual braking with pads occurs mostly to keep car motionless at stops. I think the tires will start skidding before the brake capability of the stock brakes are reached...

If stock brakes are doing fine why would performance brakes improve?

Tesla does not have dealers. You were probably at a Tesla show room.

Monroe is expecting to get 500k-750k miles for truck life. Not sure ICE trucks can do that. No oil changes, radiator fluids, transmission, spark plugs, exhaust system (think catalytic converter stolen), brake pads, and others lower maintenance features will make EV truck very desirable.

I have executed an update while parked at work place parking lot so it is possible. What are people who live in apartments and do not park nearby do to get their updates?

WiFi connection definitely make software updates much faster and more reliable. We have WiFi extender in garage.

Would an ICE truck get 13-14 mpg towing your trailer?

They will be losing $$ if production rate is only 1000/ year.

It still vaporware. What will be production rate and what batteries? A lot of batteries needed to get to 200kwh. Will it be loss leader like the Lighting?

Accerate fast and the water will be left behind.
