Zakaj so električni avtomobili prava stvar

danes so pa žal zgolj igračke za ljudi s preveč denarja. danes so pa žal zgolj igračke za ljudi s preveč denarja.

Thank goodness I found this thread. My 15A charger broke and Tesla said I could buy a new one for $600. Turned out it was just that the cable's GFCI had flaked due to being so frequently plugged into an outlet that was also GFCI. $4 in parts later and I'm back in business. I'll add that the cable's original GFCI housing was water proof, and that anyone who modifies their cable should consider using some silicone gel to seal it up.

after a walk through the factory, a visit to a dealer showroom, and an hour-and-a-half spent driving the car on a mix of roads, my eyes are wide and my jaw has dropped

Body-flush door handles might seems like a styling gimmick, but they actually served the purpose of improving the car's aerodynamics. Tesla says the Model S makes an astoundingly good .24 coefficient of drag, better than even the Toyota Prius.

But if our brief seat time is any indication, Tesla hasn't just delivered a functional, all-electric sedan - it's made a luxury EV that can outpace and outclass the stalwarts of the premium sports sedan segment, while changing the perceptions of electric mobility.
It's also a complete hoot to drive.

So far, it feels better than the best small Bimmer.

Short seat time aside, it's obvious that Tesla hasn't simply made an electric appliance solely for commuter duty - it's made a credible driver's car with the eco-cred to match

As the first journalist to test-drive one, I can report the Tesla Model S successfully challenges a century of assumptions about what a great car can be.

I've driven a score of electric cars like the Nissan Leaf, along with serial hybrids like the Chevy Volt and Tesla's start-up competitor of sorts, the Fisker Karma, so I had some idea what to expect when Musk handed me the sleek key fob for an hour-long stint. I was wrong: The Tesla Model S drives like none of them, or any gas-powered vehicle ever built.

Vehicle Settings

For instance, the Subaru BRZ, equipped with a low-mounted boxer engine, is hailed for its 18-inch center of gravity, which bests those of Ferraris and Porsches. The Model S has a center of gravity just 16 inches high

The revelation of what Tesla has accomplished sunk in when I returned to a gas-powered vehicle. Other luxury cars will keep pace with the Tesla, but after driving the Model S, suddenly you notice the lag between accelerator and power, the exhaust noise, all the energy necessary to keep those parts hurtling forward. It makes a fossil fuel-powered car seem to be working so much harder than necessary. Which is the point.

It's a car that runs from the blocks with the Cadillac CTS-V, Mercedes-Benz E-Class, and Maseratis of the world, and it will be far easier for Tesla to close any gaps with the competition than vice versa. From behind the wheel of the Tesla Model S, you feel you're driving the future, instead of burning increasingly limited gallons of the past.

So what's it like to drive the Model S? In a word: amazing. There's absolutely no doubt that this is a driver's car. It inherits most of the Roadster's performance DNA but wraps it in a significantly more practical and comfortable package.

If the Model S represents the future of the automobile, sign us up.

It's not vaporware. The company's current turning out one vehicle per day, ramping up to 80 per day by the end of the year.

It shreds the racetrack, makes little or no noise, drives hundreds of miles without a recharge, smooth as silk, roomy and comfortable, looks like pure sex, and you're saving the planet in the process.

Sit in the driver's seat and the car turns itself on. The large 17-inch screen comes to life. It looks not unlike a giant iPhone, but this one has Google maps pulling live from the Internet

Par ur nazaj se je zaključila javna predaja nekaj prvih vozil končnim kupcem. Trenutno ima ključe cca 10 končnih kupcev. Hkrati so razne revije dobile dovoljenje, da objavijo svoje teste, misli in izkušnje ob dejanski vožnji z Tesla Model S. Nekaj jih je članke že objavilo na netu, večina pa še pride.

Natanko enako pomemben podatek.

Future looks good to me. Valvolajn, na zdravje s cvičkom;)

Sploh pa take ki letijo!!!!1111 In še plavajo zraven...

Vaše modrosti imajo zelo enostaven test: Letna proizvodnja naslednje leto naj bi bila 20.000 vozil.
Če bodo uspeli prodat vsa, imate pač narobe in vaša presoja kaj se splača/da/je dobro pač smrdi oz. ni vredna pol dingovih ledvičk.
Če pa prodaja ne bo šla oz. bodo moral znižat proizvodnjo, ker bo čakalna vrsta dolga pol ure, pol ste pač imel prav in je še nekdo svoj denar pač zagonil sam v svoje sanje.

Zaenkrat vam slabo kaže, prodanih je bilo že cca 10.000 vozil, še preden je prvi kupec dobil stvar v roke.
Ja katerikoli drugi avtomobilski firmi že uspel kej podobnega?

Al sam mene spomin jebe ali iz te teme sproti izginjajo sporočila, nazadnje je bilo nekaj glede dosega in 10 min. vožnje ?

Anyway - glede 200km dosega
Sam avto že kak mesec tankam ko skurim četrt tanka. ~200km

Se navadiš in res ni problem.

Rekorderji v tem so pa vsi ostali prebivalci slovenije ki se furajo stalno na rezervo, tudi če tank zdrži 700km, jih venomar uporabljajo le 100.

Glede tega res ne vidim več problema.

Mogoče je razlika edino v reasoning. Ker pri ICE veš da greš lahko natankat ko si prazen (in ga tako tudi voziš, do zadnje kaplje) ter veš da ima avto venomar še nekaj rezerve.

Količina proizvedenih kosov je direkt nepomembna, vse kar je pomembno je, al zaslužiš dovolj da pokriješ stroške in narediš nekaj profita glede na vložek.

Ekonomija, prva lekcija, prvo poglavje, prvi odstavek.

Če bi Saab proizvajal kaj, kar bi si kdo celo želel imet, nebi imel finančnih težav. Če pa proizvajaš zadeve, katere noben noče met za takšno ceno, pol ti pa tut 2 milijona proizvedenih kosev nič ne pomaga.

ICE avtomobile delajo skoraj vsi in imajo resne težave te dinozavre še komu prodat. Alternativa je praktično samo Tesla in ni videt, da bi imel težave s prodajo.

Vaše bajanje kako tega nihče ne mara, ne gre skup z odzivom po svetu. In 10.000 vnaprejšnjih vplačil po 40.000 USD tut ne.

Sicer pa kaj to vam razlagat. Pametni razumejo, ostali ne boste nikoli.

Brane, lepo da vsaj priznaš, da si krepko streljal mimo.
