Wow, this is exciting, and something that could push Tesla to do better, if they come to production. Imho as a tesla owner for years, they have been sitting on their laurels and not moving the car much - the s is barely different from 2012 (adding awd, more battery, more cameras). I think they haven't increased the range because they don't need to and they are preserving battery capacity for the model 3. But this car could be good enough to move tesla forward.
This and the Porsche Taycan are the first vehicles that could push to improve. the taycan seems like it might not be faster than an s and might not have better range (hopefully it will be slightly better than a tesla). The i-pace is fine, does not push Tesla to do much though. The audi e-tron won't even be at dealers.
So many competitors came and went without making an impact.
- mtgx 8y agoI agree Tesla could do much better on range by now, just as they've shown with the semi. They don't because they want to be profitable sooner and also because not many competitors have caught up yet. There's no reason why there shouldn't be a 200kwh model s within the next 2 years with a minimum of 100kwh.
