These metals are 100% recyclable. Old cars can have their rare metals put right back into new cars. This is something people used to burn-it-and-that’s-it petroleum easily forget. It’s the very essence of why electric cars are more sustainable.

Get an EV? But seriously, on a funny side note, we almost did this in Italy years ago. We had a gas powered car (not diesel) and tried to put gas in it with the black fuel pump. Fun fact: in Italy the DIESEL is black and the regular gas is green. Thank Zod for the different sized nozzles! Some Italian guy came up to…

Tesla’s goal is sustainable transportation, not profit. They’ve said this from the beginning. Looking at their model like you look at a purely for-profit company won’t work.

I remember, when I was younger, if I saw a car blowing smoke out of its exhaust it was either a diesel, or a Mitsubishi. That company has always made cars of dubious reliability and quality.

Not in Austin! You’ve gotta actually have public transit first. -Austin resident

Keep reading about electric motors / vehicles. You will literally gasp in awe as you learn more. It’s great!

A classy correction compared to his kinda shitty comment. Well done and thanks for this article.

Bonus fun, this is seemingly the same semi mule that was pictured just left of the flashy new supposed prototype someone got a photo of recently:

You know those religious/Jesus candles you can get at the grocery store? I get the unscented white ones without any religious sticker on them because I cannot stand fake scents wafting out of a candle. These candles last for months and months and are also cheap. 10/10 would buy again.

When I leave the house, it sets the thermostat to more green temperatures. Same for when I’m heading home.

The front and back of that car are immensely unattractive, much like any Civic currently made. Honda truly lost its way. Also, $42k when the Model 3 is $35k to start seems a bit pricy.

I don’t think Jalopnik gets it. You charge an electric car the same way you charge a gas car if you don’t have a charging station at home: you go once a week or so and plug it in for a bit. That’s it. Tesla is installing urban Superchargers all over the US right now for this very thing. 20 minutes and your car is…

I love light scheduling. I love being able to say “Ok Google, next song” and the song changes on whatever Chromecast I am using. I love being able to say “Ok Google, pause the TV” and the TV pauses. I love Nest informing me that the UPS man delivered my package.

Does it have auto-away? That’s the one thing I love about Nest.

A Model S can drive 100 miles on the amount of energy it takes to refine enough gas for a similarly-sized gas car to drive 100 miles, BEFORE it actually drives. I don’t think all the data is in there. Additionally, a recent report by the EPA shows that our grid is significantly greener than it was before, and…

Nevermind the energy that goes into refining oil into gas, the transportation of that gas, and the countless other ways that gas engines lose out to electric. Mazda is kidding itself with this ridiculous spin, they don’t want to see the big picture. China just set a mandate to ban gas cars for Zod’s sake!

Jalopnik has an interesting readership in the Gizmodo world.

Elon’s salary from Tesla last year was less than $50k.

“...with CEO Elon Musk aggressively against the concept, even offering to work the same tasks as injured employees to prove, well, to prove something.”

I’m waiting for the Ludicrous BB series with AWD and air suspension.
