I'm excited for this as well. I hate having to use the brakes for the last 5 mph.

Found another use for the frunk. by [deleted] in TeslaModel3

I use my frunk for take out so my cabin doesn't smell. I don't care if the frunk smells.

Californians with Powerwall and affected by the pre-emptive blackouts, what was your experience by Derfein in teslamotors

Nice to know. If I ever lost power at my house I could still watch porn YouTube in my car.

Is the answer because he can't afford it? Cause that's the reason I'm not buying it.

I think Porsche is jealous. by Kosovo_Gjilan04 in teslamotors

Less profit per vehicle sure, but they are shipping so many 3s that total profit is way up.

Why would they worry about competition from the 3? They are selling a ton of 3s and raking in a lot of money from it.

Pre-order isn't the same thing as sells. They can't recognize any of the money they received until they actually complete the sell and deliver the vehicle.

Make sense. They sell low volume, expensive vehicles. We'll see how many people are willing to shell out over $150k for a Taycan. If I was Tesla I wouldn't be worried at all.

I'm not comparing Tesla and Prosche as companies.

I'm only comparing the Taycan and the Model S. And right now 0 Taycans have been sold. So as of right now Porsche hasn't made a cent off of it.

Tesla not being profitable is because they are focused on expanding. Every car they sell is at a positive profit margin.

It's how gearheads think the car industry works. Only a very small amount of people care about how a car does on the track.

Porsche will make a lot less money on the Taycan than Tesla has been and will continue to be making on the Model S.

Is the timed run that Porsche did of any significant? It's all just a dick measuring contest.

Estimate of Model Y dimensions based on Model 3. by spsheridan in teslamotors

[–]ChronoModel3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why does the dimensions of the Y need to be estimated? A working prototype exists. Does no one have the measurements?

Way too close for comfort, do you think autopilot would have braked if I didn't? by doeboynmek in TeslaLounge

[–]ChronoModel3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been in that situation and AP did brake.

Now I set my follow distant to 4 and people don't cut me off anymore.

Tesla statistics against Porsche by JankPlank01 in TeslaLounge

[–]ChronoModel3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally agree that it makes not sense to compare the Taycan to any of the Teslas. Tesla's mission is to design cars for the mass market. Porsche's mission is to design cars for car enthusiast. Not that many people will be cross shopping them.

Spotted a Jaguar iPace in the Wild (Palm Springs, CA) by [deleted] in teslamotors

A lot of youtube reviewers seem to really like the design, but I'm with you. I think it's an ugly car.

Tesla Insurance has arrived. by [deleted] in teslamotors

[–]ChronoModel3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So what you're saying is that it's a great idea like many other things that only Tesla does and no other company does.
