Damn how more delusional can you be when it comes to DC fast charging facts. First off, where in the world are you getting that Tesla has “less than half as many Superchargers as EA fast chargers”??? This is simply false and the complete opposite from the truth. According to the DOE, in the US, Tesla has 1631…

As others have said, there is still plenty of heat that exists at freezing temperatures that the heat pump can pump into your car. Technology Connections has a good detailed explanation on all of this and how heat pumps work.

Yet another case of an old boomer who should give up their car keys and never drive again. Unintended acceleration from incompetent boomers who no longer know the difference between the brake and gas pedal will continue to happen especially with EVs that have instant torque.

And wouldn’t you know that Tesla is not the first to do that. Turn signals on the steering wheel has been done a many other cars the past couple of decades.

“Literally everything”? Lol. Imagine wanting car with an obnoxiously loud that has a 0-60 time of over 20 seconds over an EV with a 0-60 time of less than 5 seconds. All just because sound.

That’s all nice and good in theory, but the reality is that people have “design the damn car around the power source, drive train, aero, and interior space” many times before which in the end have resulted in cars that the regular consumer do not want since it is too ugly. So they did build it but no, nobody came.…

So what was the cause for all of these wrongful arrests? And has this issue now been fixed by Hertz to make sure it doesn’t happen again?

A regular 110 volt Level 1 outlet can add around 3 to 5 miles of range per hour for a typical EV sedan. Therefore, charging overnight can add 30 to 50 miles of range every night assuming a 10-hour charge. If you drive less than 30 to 50 miles on a daily basis then you can get by just fine charging off your regular…

And simply taking the foot off for any EV would actually apply another type of brake (i.e. regenerative braking) along with engaging the rear brake lights. So an EV is still safer in this situation over a manual.

Yes pedestrians are allowed at other races but who knows for this. But seeing how those walkways will be the only way to physically travel between the inside and outside of the track, I would hope they are open. Would also be a way to view the race without paying for anything.

I’m curious how the logistics will work for everyone who wants/needs to be inside the track whether if they are a guest at a hotel or not. Will they simply be stuck inside the track once the race starts? Will people allowed to be on the many pedestrian bridge walkways that go over the strip?

Yet another failed attempt to justify this failed BMW over a Tesla. So luxurious interior, Apple Car Play/Android Auto, and driving dynamics are the only reasons to get this over the Model X? All subjective metrics that do not matter in the real world unless you are that type of person that just simply cares about how…

Kyle, are you guys actually sure he was able to charge the Tesla while driving with the generator? This guy never actually shows the electrical connections he made to tap into the battery. The only way that this is possible is if he tapped directly into the 400V DC line to the battery along with the generator and/or…

I know not everyone in rural areas own the home they live in, but it is definitely the case that the majority of them in fact do. Additionally, adding a charger ranges from a few hundred to a thousand or so. Don’t know if you consider that “expensive” but that cost is nothing especially if someone has already decided…

Sure, nothing about this Tesla, or the 9-second civis, or any other crazy car projects out there are practical. They all simply do it just to do it because it has not been done or has been done very little so far.

I was wondering how he was able to charge while driving and I guess he could have directly tapped into the 400V DC line. But that does take a lot of guts and planning like you said.... and the fact that he never shows that leads me to believe this video is faked. He simply put a generator in the back to power nothing…

Situations like this especially a phone crashing/tumbling away from the owner is a good reason to instead use some type of chip/sensor that is implanted into the person to better determine if an actual human is in danger rather than a phone.

There is no Tesla that has bi-directional charging capabilities.

This very narrow view short minded thought is the exact same dumb argument by people like you who say electric trucks are nowhere close to prime time since their towing range sucks.... even though the VAST majority of truck owners never tow in the first place.

You obviously have no idea what the Volt is since everything you mentioned about “A fully electric drive train with an onboard single speed generator for range is the answer” is exactly how the Volt worked.
