We are not talking about a generator, but about an additional battery Tesla has released a slew of details about the Cybertruck, confirming that the vehicle offers a range extender option. The Cybertruck with dual-motor all-wheel drive and the top-spec Cyberbeast with three-motor all-wheel drive will receive range extender options that will increase their range from 545 to 755 km and from 515 to 710 km, respectively. [caption id="attachment_85522" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Tesla[/caption] The Cybertruck received a range extender that differs from the industry's traditional ones. Tesla CEO Elon Musk didn't mention the range extender option during the presentation, but later clarified in X that we were talking about another battery pack. Asked to explain what a range extender is, Musk replied: “An additional package that takes up about 1/3 of the truck bed. At the same time, you still have enough space for a large amount of cargo. It is designed for very long trips or towing heavy trailers.” This is a completely different approach to past "range extenders" in electric vehicles, which were typically gasoline generators (or even all-gasoline engines) that served to assist or charge the battery. The BMW i3, Chevrolet Volt and the upcoming Ram Ramcharger truck all work this way. It is not yet clear whether Cybertruck owners will be able to independently install and remove the additional battery if necessary.

How does the Tesla Model X hold up after one month?

The Tesla Model X is one heck of a car. Its crazy Falcon doors and AutoPilot features highlight one of the most tech-centric cars on the market right now. Jon was lucky enough to get one a month ago, and he’s back to let you know how the car has held up.

Jon took us through the experience of picking up the brand new car, and he’s continuing the video series with a one month later update. Do you Falcon doors hold up well? Is it that much different than the Model S? How have the white leather seats held up with two children?

Jon answers all of those questions and more in the video above.

Why electric cars are not the best choice for taxi drivers Tesla cars, and electric vehicles in general, may not be the best choice for drivers of Uber or other ride-hailing services who make a living doing it, according to a story published on the YouTube channel Out of Spec Guide. The owner of the new Tesla Model Y said that the car was purchased in April 2021. A year later, he drove about 64 thousand km, after which the electric car began to show less and less remaining range when the battery was fully charged. [caption id="attachment_85500" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Tesla Model Y[/caption] Initially, the range on a full charge was 525 km, but after a week the estimated range was just over 418 km. Tesla eventually issued an error BMS_a066 - “Maximum battery level and range may be reduced.” A week later the car stopped charging. The owner made an appointment at a Tesla service center, where he was informed that the high-voltage battery needed to be replaced and all this would be done under warranty, since the electric car was only one year old. This Tesla Model Y is already running on its third battery after only 100,000 km. As the owner later found out, he did not receive a new battery. If the battery is replaced under warranty, Tesla will provide a remanufactured battery that uses used cells instead of new ones. After just 30,000 km, the car again displayed the same error, indicating that the replacement battery had also failed. The second time, the owner went to another Tesla service center, where he had the battery replaced within a week. https://youtu.be/o3E2bIbek-M Today he has about 170,000 km on the odometer, that is, he has driven more on the second replacement battery, but the battery warranty expires at 190,000 km, which means that next time he may have to shell out more than $10,000 for replacement out of your own pocket.

Over the year they fell by 18% In November, total wholesale shipments (local retail sales and exports) of Tesla vehicles assembled in China fell from the same period a year earlier. Tesla Model 3 and Model Y vehicle volume totaled 82,432 units last month, down nearly 18% from a year ago, according to the China Passenger Car Association (CPCA). We must also take into account the fact that a year ago the result was a record high - 100,291 cars. Then Tesla began cutting prices to stimulate sales. Compared to October 2023, sales volume increased by more than 10,000 units [caption id="attachment_85482" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Teslas[/caption] Sales of Chinese-made Teslas have collapsed. The company is losing market share It is too early to say that Tesla has problems in China, especially since the company is trying to increase production and sales of the significantly modernized Model 3 (Highland) and the slightly updated Tesla Model Y in China. However, this year's growth dynamics will be much lower than in previous years, and potentially lower than the market average, which, according to insideevs, means that Tesla is losing its market share. In the first ten months of the year, Tesla sold more than 460,000 Model 3 and Model Y models in China (up 38% year-on-year) and exports topped 300,000 (up 20% year-on-year).

Self-healing coating will be applied to the Cybertruck for $6,500 During the official premiere , Tesla showed the Cybertruck armored pickup truck exclusively in one color - the color of the stainless steel from which the exterior body panels are made. But this does not mean at all that the color will be exclusively “metallic”. [caption id="attachment_85403" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Tesla Cybertruck[/caption] It turns out that the Cybertruck can be either black or white. The option costs $6,500, but the most interesting thing is that this cost is not charged for paint at all, but for... film! That is, the Cybertruck will not be painted in any case, it will simply be wrapped in film. But this is not a simple film, but a self-healing one based on urethane. Tesla claims it is scratch-resistant and more environmentally friendly than regular vinyl. Tesla Cybertruck can be black or white. [caption id="attachment_85404" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Tesla Cybertruck[/caption] Interestingly, you can keep the metallic look of the Cybertruck, but still wrap the car in film. For this, an option called premium satin clear film is offered, and an additional payment for it is $5,000. It must be said that the protective film itself is not something new for Tesla. The company offers it for both Model 3 and Model Y, and the price is even higher - $7,500. It is unknown whether black or white Cybertruck will be available in Russia, but prices for regular “metal” versions for Russia have already been announced .

"Cyberpickup" is not afraid of 9 mm bullets A video of a Tesla Cybertruck pickup being tested for resistance... to bullets has appeared on the Internet. Even at the dawn of the creation of the car, Elon Musk promised that the pickup would be armored, now it’s time to answer for your words. [caption id="attachment_85344" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Tesla Cybertruck[/caption] This official video was shown in the United States during the premiere of the production Cybertruck a couple of days ago. It turned out that the car was tested with three automatic weapons: a Thompson submachine gun, a Glock 9 mm caliber pistol, and an MP5-SD submachine gun of the same 9 mm caliber. Tesla Cybertruck was shot with a Glock pistol and an MP5-SD submachine gun. Video https://youtu.be/aMFZnPERGQ8 As you can see, none of the bullets penetrated the outer door panel of the pickup truck, although it did leave some significant dents. Apparently, the car is really not afraid of shots from a 9-mm automatic weapon, but if the caliber is larger, then most likely the Cybertruck will not be able to withstand it. But in any case, this is an unprecedented level of protection for a production car. The Tesla Cybertruck's exterior panels are made from ultra-hard cold-rolled stainless steel. While a typical car's door panels are 0.7-1mm thick, the Cybertruck's door panel is 3mm thick. Stainless steel is also more resistant to tearing than regular steel doors, which is why in the video the bullet is stretching the steel rather than tearing it.

Excerpt from a presentation led by Elon Musk Tesla began delivering its new Cybertruck pickup truck to select employees and held a big presentation yesterday. CEO Elon Musk revealed several characteristics of the pickup truck with a stainless steel body, and also suggested assessing its acceleration capabilities. [caption id="attachment_85042" align="alignnone" width="780"] Tesla Cybertruck[/caption] Elon Musk confirmed that for the test they purchased a brand new 2023 Porsche 911 (the exact equipment was not specified). The video shows that the Tesla Cybertruck beat the Porsche 911 by more than a body. But viewers were delighted that at the end of the video the following was revealed: the Tesla Cybertruck was towing the same Porsche 911. Tesla Cybertruck beat the latest Porsche 911 in a drag race while towing the same Porsche 911 The screen also shows claimed quarter-mile times of under 11 seconds and 0-60 mph acceleration of 2.6 seconds. These figures correspond to the most expensive Cyberbeast trim level. We just have to wait until the Cybertruck ends up in the hands of autobloggers, who will make a lot of other comparisons. https://youtu.be/0rlzCHsDoxE It was previously reported that the Tesla Cybertruck cannot roll over and is more rigid than the McLaren P1 supercar.

[phonemantra-blog]

McLaren P1 was released 10 years ago Tesla continues to tout the Cybertruck, having previously said its stainless steel body is "bulletproof." Now Elon Musk has said that the Cybertruck is stiffer than the McLaren P1 and that it cannot roll over. During the event to deliver the first 10 vehicles, Musk said the Cyberruck is "a better pickup than regular pickups, but also a better sports car than other sports cars." He noted that the torsional rigidity of the Cybertruck is higher than that of the McLaren P1 hypercar. Some of this rigidity may have come from the stainless steel panels, but Musk hasn't provided any official numbers or chassis details to back up that claim. The Tesla Cybertruck cannot roll over and is more rigid than the McLaren P1 supercar. [caption id="attachment_85021" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Tesla Cybertruck[/caption] Musk says the Cybertruck's extremely low center of gravity (same as the Model S) and wide stance will prevent it from flipping over even in a side impact collision. At the same event, Elon Musk unveiled the Cyber ​​Beast .

The event will start at 20:00 Moscow time As of yesterday evening, Tesla is no longer accepting pre-orders for the Cybertruck. The company probably decided that the collected pre-orders would be enough for the near future. According to insideevs, in September of this year the number of orders for the Tesla Cybertruck exceeded 2 million. The first million was collected in May 2021, 1.25 million was recorded in August 2021 and 1.3 million in November 2021. [caption id="attachment_84894" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Tesla Cybertruck[/caption] Tesla Cybertruck can no longer be reserved. The Tesla Cybertruck page now displays a countdown timer until the first delivery. The Cybertruck cannot be reserved at this time. Tesla first briefly updated the page to raise the reservation fee from $100 to $250, then went back to $100, but eventually removed the ability to reserve a pickup truck altogether. The Cybertruck delivery event is scheduled to begin at 20:00 Moscow time.

Also added "Drowsy Driver Warning" The updated Tesla Model 3 received a number of improvements, a new design and additional passive safety features, such as the “active hood” - a pedestrian protection system. [caption id="attachment_84797" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Tesla Model 3[/caption] A description of this system appears in the European user manual. The document states that part of the bonnet will automatically raise by approximately 80 mm if the car detects a collision with a pedestrian when traveling at speeds between 30 and 52 km/h. This should reduce the likelihood of injury to pedestrians. The new Tesla Model 3 received an “active hood” and other new features. When this system is activated, an alarm sounds and a warning appears on the screen. In this case, the vehicle must be taken to the nearest Tesla service center or Tesla-approved body shop to have the hood replaced. This passive safety feature was previously available on Model S and Model X, but only in select markets. [caption id="attachment_84798" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Tesla Model 3[/caption] In addition to the automatically lifting hood, the updated Model 3 has metal hooks on the bottom of the doors that help keep them in the correct position during a collision. Another passive safety feature is the so-called Driver Drowsiness Alert, which uses a camera mounted above the rearview mirror to count how often the driver yawns or blinks.

Demand for electric vehicles is still low Mazda doesn't offer all-electric vehicles in the United States after it pulled the MX-30 electric crossover from its lineup this summer due to poor sales. Mazda sold just 100 units of the MX-30 in the first eight months of 2023. The automaker plans to release another battery-electric vehicle in the United States, but it reportedly won't arrive until 2025. Mazda North America CEO Tom Donnelly recently told Automotive News that the upcoming electric vehicle will likely be a crossover, noting that the automaker will add more electric vehicles if consumer demand grows. Releasing one new EV in two years is unlikely to help Mazda gain a foothold in the US EV market. The automaker's approach to electric vehicles appears to be overly cautious, but Mazda CEO Masahiro Moro believes the share of electric vehicles in the overall U.S. new passenger car market is too small. Only Tesla cars are popular. Speaking to Fortune, Moreau acknowledged the importance of electric vehicles, but said demand for them is still low. [caption id="attachment_84648" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Tesla[/caption] The head of Mazda said that electric cars are not gaining popularity, with the exception of Tesla “Electric vehicles are an undeniably important technology, and we are developing it. But in the US, electric vehicles took up about 6% of the market last year. This year - 8%. And 57% of them came from Tesla. Other electric vehicles are not gaining popularity, stocks are piling up,” he said. Moreau added that the lack of charging stations is another factor hampering the growth of electric vehicle market share in the United States. He also wasn't particularly optimistic about the auto industry's transition to a zero-emissions future in 2035: "How we get to zero depends on consumer choices and social infrastructure."

The price has not yet been announced Tesla has officially confirmed that the Tesla Cybertruck launch event will begin on November 30 at 22:00 Moscow time. The start of the event was moved forward an hour. The event will be held at the company's Gigafactory in Texas, and Tesla Product Design Director Javier Verdura said that only 10 Cybertrucks will be delivered there and all of them will be given to employees, and not to random lucky winners, as previously thought. So ordinary customers who ordered cars will not receive them yet. [caption id="attachment_84621" align="aligncenter" width="450"] Tesla Cybertrucks[/caption] The first Tesla Cybertrucks, which are promised to be delivered on November 30 This partly explains why so few technical characteristics of the Cybertruck have been revealed and the price of the new product has not been announced. When Tesla first unveiled the Cybertruck back in late 2019, the company said the lineup would start at $39,900, but the price is now expected to go higher.
