Tech data bout the Zero claims 520 hp (five hundred and twenty horsepower) and 476 FT. LBS of torque.

Crown Vics are decent off-roaders too.

Great, now take it to Baja.

That’s pretty impressive to see the Tesla take a hit like that and still be identifiable. You can see how much energy was involved from the path of the truck.

It’s a car site reporting news about a car. What are you complaining about? Same way Gizmodo reports about new Apple devices, because they’re a tech site.

Those are not the cells that Tesla is making. They are making a larger cell format called a 21-70.

Today, at least.

I don’t think Michael got close enough to the red Model 3 outside of the lobby. It’s not actually a car, a prototype or even replica.

I doubt it, Taco Bell is the only restaurant in the future.

There is actually a good story here, though, for Bay Area readers who haven’t yet pulled equity out of their $1.5 million three-bed, two-bath homes to buy a Model X. That trip from Fremont to Reno (ie, the typical Orinda-dweller’s weekend Tahoe dash): any range anxiety? Did the mountain driving diminish range? Obvious…

The purpose of the gigafactory is to lower cell cost. If a economic event happened because of oil(which has happened a few times in the past). It would be the best business decision of the century.

To put this into perspective, the Pentagon (Post 9/11 reconstruction and addition) is around 1.5 million sq ft footprint and is the largest building in the world in terms of footprint. With all of the levels, the actual usable square footage is around 6.5 million sq ft. (The Chrysler Headquarters in Auburn Hills, MI…

Welcome out west, where San Francisco to Reno IS a short drive... Its only 1 state away, after all.

One of my last places of employment was a factory over 4900 feet long and about 60 feet high. Walking through the door to the main floor was breathtaking. Standing at one end, the lights just went off into the distance forever.

Enos Burdett - B-U-R...

I spy reefer!

Check out the amount of solar power in Germany.

next time ask him if it covers you when you leave Cars and Coffee.

I don’t think it’s so much about blame as it is to explain the damage done to the vehicle. The physics in a 50mph crash and a 75mph one are pretty different. Also, you have less reaction time if you’re going faster, the car is covering more ground at a higher rate. Another commenter posted a chart illustrating this

Are you not “allowed” to exceed the speed limit in your car? If my car made me do 55mph on Detroit freeways when everyone else is doing 70+ I’d be pissed.
