Good News: you’ve scored a drive in F1, the glamourous pinnacle of motorsport.
Uh, they just did donuts on stage with it.
I know, right? It’s like that dual motor Model S and 100kWh pack he’s been promising us. Don’t even get me started on that Model 3 vaporware. 0-60 in 2.39? Yea right Musk!!!
Digital renders , You did see the one driving around at the presentation ?
they literally showcased it at the live event. like 0-60 sprints and everything.
It moves, he mentioned the mechanism in the presentation
You must be a Trump supporter. It’s ok we understand.
It has a 200kWh battery. The P100D has a 100kWh battery. Add to that the fact that the Roadster is probably built to be lighter (excluding batteries) and more aerodynamic, I can see how the range is almost doubled.
That’s almost 6hrs of travel time (@70mph avg). I’m not a pro truck driver, but I have done long stretches. For me, I need to stop and stretch the legs at around the 5.5 mark. Seems like a nice sweet spot paired with 30minute charging.
It is 20s with a load.
As Elon points out, you can’t actually drive 1000 miles in one shot in a diesel, legally. Though I have no idea how much respect folks actually pay to those type of regulations. If you could legally string together your ‘fuel’ stops and combine them with meals, while no longer having to watch the truck actually fuel…
In a side-by-side comparison of how fast it takes a diesel truck to move 0-60, he showed how quickly the Tesla semi can hit it: 5 seconds.
New York blows and the only people trying to tell us otherwise are the poor saps who have convinced themselves that the fact that they live there makes them better than everyone. Your trains suck, your people suck, your attitudes suck, and your pizza sucks!
I too, like to shit on others parades.
