More close-up footage showing the badassery of the Cybertruck.
It will be at the Petersen Museum in Los Angeles, CA, from May 19 until June. Tickets are $45. I remember seeing the new Roadster at the shareholders event in 2019, such a beautiful car!
Another great viedeo by AI DRIVR where we can see an extremely impressive display of “real” driving.
Tesla takes safety very seriously. It only takes one irresponsible driver to accelerate updates like this one detected by @greentheonly in the software update 2021.4.15.8. It identifies when the driver vacates their seat and a couple of other safety limitations. 🙏
The latest software update also brings cats and dogs visualizations to our cars. Some owners also claim to have seen colored cars for a split second. Or maybe it was a dream about the future?
We’ve seen quite a few photo and video footage of the refreshed Model S but not so much about the new Model X. Here’s a video, showing the yoke style steering-wheel and all.
Tesla has set a new official record for the fastest quarter-mile time of any production car in their new Model S Plaid. 9.23 seconds with a trap speed of 152.16mph (244.88km/h) set at the at the Autoclub Famoso Raceway in Bakersfield, CA. A full half-second quicker than the second fastest car on the list, the Porsche 918 Spyder. The previous record (9.4) was held by a Bugatti Chiron Sport. Not bad!
It seems like Tesla is attempting lap records at Laguna Seca with a couple of Model S Plaid models. According to @klwtts, they may have secured a 1:30:XX. It looks amazing with the active spoiler in the pictures.
Wait, what? The claim was that EV owners need to pay their fair share and make up for fuel taxes that they don’t pay. 🙄This makes no sense to me, in addition to help make the world a more sustainable place, Tesla is “only’ bringing 10,000 jobs to the state of Texas 😡
Or so has shared Elon on Twitter. Pretty cool to see all the battery innovation arriving to the production lines already. I wonder what’s going to happen in Freemont and the new models being delivered in the US west coast. 🤔
As Tesla fan I find myself sometimes having to remember what are all those acronyms, here is a list of the ones you can find in this issue.
