Tesla Model 3 (Page 12)

One Tesla Model Y owner comes up with a great list of desired changes for the Tesla Model Y (and Model 3). These would be awesome changes and hopefully Tesla will listen.

The LFP battery cells Tesla implements in the Model 3 manufactured in Shanghai are revealing their very good performance, well beyond the specifications of the manufacturer itself. A real road test confirms that its capacity is even higher than the specifications stated in its own data sheet.

There are times when you read a story that appears legitimate however, when you dive through it turns out that there's an agenda to it. This happened recently in a piece about EV battery pack replacement costs.

The technical and economic consequences of withdrawing ultrasonic sensors from Tesla electric cars are many: the widely known expert Sandy Munro clarified some, to answer the question about whether cost savings actually reduce safety features.

We compare the five-year costs of ownership of two green sedans with similar capacities. One is all-electric, and the other is a hybrid. Here’s the outcome.

Tesla has changed its original plans and will no longer produce the 4680 battery cells for electric cars made in Giga-Berlin. The manufacturing team is moving to Austin, Texas; here we will discuss some of the alleged reasons behind this difficult decision.

Tesla has just surpassed the symbolic figure of 10,000 Supercharger locations on the European continent, mainly in the Western area. This allows Tesla users to make long-distance trips with relatively short stops, and also allows drivers of other EV brands to do the same, as Superchargers have been opened up to others with the Tesla app.

A Tesla Model 3 - even its base version - is an advanced electric and semi-autonomous vehicle. It's like driving a space ship. It is the most family friendly, cost effective, safe, and fuel-efficient vehicle on the market today.

A leaked internal email has revealed that Tesla leadership expects a dizzying pace of deliveries during the last quarter of this year, while at the same time encourages all network workers to do their best to help with the tasks.

We interview a long-time EV driver who owned a Tesla and then bought a Kia Sorento as his next vehicle. Here's why a BEV owner purchased a PHEV.

It has long been one of the great demands of many Tesla users in the United States: the CCS1 adapter will allow drivers to connect to any public charging point, although it will not actually work in all models yet.

Tesla has just released an adapter that will allow for Tesla vehicles to use Electrify America, EVGo and other public DC fast chargers.

Tesla has reached astonishing EV production numbers thanks to its excellent human resources, cutting edge technologies and innovative production techniques, among many other things. In that sense, 3D audiovisual specialist "Red Side" created two very illustrative videos that can give a clear idea of what those figures mean.

The Tesla Semi electric truck keeps very few secrets as of today; however, the electric vehicle company itself has published new images of the Semi on its official website.

We have a video from a new Tesla owner who bought the slowest Tesla, a Model 3 RWD. This is the same Tesla that I bought a week ago.

The satellite connection capacity is not exclusively focused on mobile devices, but also on cars. Tesla will deploy worldwide coverage for its vehicles thanks to the Starlink network.

Although Tesla's driver assistance package is not a fully autonomous driving system yet - as per official technical specifications - its effectiveness is widely proven. A Tesla software executive assures that it basically avoids 40 accidents a day.

Although the production of Giga Texas is currently not very large as compared to the numbers of Fremont or Giga Shanghai factories, the role of Giga Texas in Austin will actually be very relevant in the future of Tesla. And for a factory to produce a lot, it is convenient to have the main suppliers close: a very valuable lesson learned in recent years in the automobile industry.

Tesla plans to start mass production of its electric truck, the Tesla Semi, later this year. The company has just updated its website with new images and by adding some important data on the truck.

I just got a Tesla Model 3 RWD with LFP batteries. This replaced my 14 year old Honda Fit. It feels like I'm driving a Space Ship now.

Here’s an update by a mechanic who in the past reported on what he says are truths about electric vehicles and Tesla that no one else will talk about publicly.

Quietly and without any marketing, Tesla has made changes to its website about Tesla Megapack specifications. We can now see that the storage capacity has increased from 2.6 MWh to 3.9 MWh, which is basically a 50% gain; but it does point to the chemistry of the cells being LFP (Lithium Iron Phosphate).

The Tesla Canada division has already begun talks with the Government of Ontario for the construction of a possible electric car Gigafactory in the Canadian province very soon.

In an update to the company's online configurator, Tesla has stopped taking new orders for the Model 3 Long Range. Now if you go to Tesla's website to order this Model 3 variant, it simply reads "available in 2023."

Tesla first unveiled the Semi back in 2017 with deliveries expected to begin in 2019. However, after years of delay, today, Elon Musk has confirmed that the 500-mile version of the Tesla Semi will start "shipping this year."

Worldwide sales of plug-in cars continue to increase every month. During the first half of the year record figures have been reached, that basically show that China is the great market at the moment.

Tesla has modified the calculation algorithm for estimating the range of its electric cars, including the influence of tire pressure, the cooling system of the battery compartment and even the recharging of mobile phones.

Tires are going to become increasingly expensive as America adopts battery-electric vehicles. Here’s why it matters.

Despite a slight decrease in production due to the pandemic outbreak in Shanghai, Tesla continues to reap excellent economic figures. At the end of the second quarter of 2022, profits doubled as compared to the same period of 2021.

At Tesla's recently held Q2 2022 earnings call, the EV maker has revealed that it is working on a second-generation Giga Casting. And according to Tesla, the next generation Giga Casting will be used to build the Cybertruck.
