Unlikely

• Folding ANY Midgate

For a midgate to be able to fold it would cause too many possible issues (safety and operational) with the retracting cover . I hope the rear window will at least go down like the tundra, I would like to be able to cool the rear bed in some situations.

• Driver display

This is still very much a possibility as an additional option since we have already seen a prototype with a 2nd screen.

• 6 seat option

Possible if they add a mid seat replacement for the console as an option but i don't see it happening

• Spare tire location

The Frunk is likely the designated space for the spare , I don't see any way that tesla does not have a space reserved for a full size spare unless they have airless tires on the CT

Is it my imagination, or is there a gap around the bed that looks square and is located between the cab and the frunk?
??Really want to see a full size spare location somewhere! Paul

You're definitely imagining things if you see a bed between the cab and the frunk...??

 

[WHIZZARD OF OZ]

I wouldn't say 500 mile range is unlikely at all. Tesla is likely to use two layers of 100kwh batteries, and with 200kwh, the CT could easily hit the 500 mile mark.

I ran some numbers before/after the SEMI handover to PEPSI Co. Prior numbers for SEMI showed 850 kWh Pack with 1.7 kWh used per mile.
The CT with 175 kWh Pack and ~163 kWh usable gave a range of ~507 miles using 1 kWh to travel 3.1 miles. ( This is from memory, and as such, the numbers are posted months ago ) The efficiency was optimistic at ~108 MPGe. (With a tail wind)

Let’s talk about the truly important stuff.

How many people think that in Light Show Mode, the CT will use its variable height suspension to “dance”???
