Oh, what kind of shortcuts are you looking to do?

I’ve said it before - Tesla is training us too. So maybe that’s why they went from brake pedal confirmation to start from park on v14lite just like they did with all the versions on AI4. All that feedback about taking to long to proceed after a stop and all… part of that was prolly getting us...

90%+ is good, but I gotta say- “The evaluation examined how battery health evolves for individual electric car models after they have traveled 10,000 Swedish miles, which translates to 100,000 kilometers or roughly 62,000 regular miles.” 10k Swedish miles? I didn’t know Swedish Miles was a...

No doubt the programming has to (at this point) figure the driver knows best.. If you’re gonna hit the accelerator then you are taking over, so the car has to assume you’re doing it for a valid reason. Just like hitting the brake pedal or turning the wheel. Besides, I’m sure someone will think...

So- if running FSD unsupervised requires hardware updates from AI4 then does Tesla start selling FSD unsupervised? If it is truly needed and I want to rent it $99/month or whatever then they have to update the car. Then after a few months I stop the subscription and Tesla lost money on my car...

I believe the correct terminology is 'centimeters closer.'

How about program them for all models and let me drop off my car for a clean?

That’s a lot of batteries! Battery packs should still be recycle-able if a car is totaled, right? There’s something a ICE car can’t do.

Performance. *All* that matters is performance. Not sensors. We don't need legislators dictating hardware IMO. Edit- I can see the Onion News Network headline now : NJ inadvertently legislates all human driven cars off highways

I would have guessed much more efficient than human drivers! Not that Tesla drivers abuse the performance the cars deliver. Currently I’m at 218 wh/mile with 11k miles on my car and from what I can tell the ‘rated’ range is obtainable at 235.1 . 99% FSD. Pretty good.

This sounds cool and at the same time could be ‘we don’t know… maybe y’all can figure it out’ :) .

This will be an interesting one to watch. By the time you build one that is useful the specs and price aren't that impressive but maybe this could replace an old ICE car for first time drivers and around town uses. Good luck!

Well, whatever they have - they better be able to wedge it into my ‘26 S! Oh, and all the other HW4 cars.

Good point. I’d be happy to see this used as an extra security measure like- if the car doesn’t recognize me then force the driver to use a PIN to drive. That way if someone gets my phone, card or watch and figures out which car is mine they still can’t drive away with it :) .

WRT pricing- I would expect that the ‘launch edition’ is gonna be more than the premium LR version that will arrive without badges and some other features. Just like they did with the refreshed Y. So it may indeed wind up priced between the Premium LR and Performance variants :) . Hopefully with...

Nice. this would make a great Lyft / Uber car. Now let’s make a stretched Model 3 with a hatch and replace the S… The Model 3S? Squeeze a higher capacity battery in there while you’re at it.

This is a crazy big thing to undertake. I’m sure the Intel guy comes with experience. Notice how I avoided an ‘intel’ pun… I know Tesla likes to do the ‘hard’ stuff, fingers crossed this pans out quickly.

Oh nice! Glad you got to see one in the wild, regardless of the controls. My feeling on the CC is - Tesla seems to be pumping these guys out in decent numbers so there MUST be a lot of confidence in the hardware and upcoming / current software. All good signs. I can’t see Tesla making so many if...

Crazy and disappointing! Maybe Big Oil is Getting desperate? :P

I was thinking- what if Tesla stretches the 3 a little, gives it a hatch. Put a 100kWh battery and you'd have a close-to-500 mile range car :) .
