Tesla Model Y (Page 14)

Tesla supplier, IDRA, has announced that it finished work on a 2nd 9000-ton Giga Press. IDRA, however, has confirmed that, unlike the first 9000-t Giga Press which was shipped to Giga Texas, this machine will not be used to build the Cybertruck as it's destined for Asia. IDRA's announcement suggests that the new machine will be used to build Giga China's upcoming compact car in a single piece.

We have a video from someone who drove their Tesla Model Y vehicle across the country in the U.S. on a road trip. Here's how it went.

Tesla's Gigafactory in Shanghai is already one of the fastest production hubs in the world; assembly lines are already capable of assembling a black Tesla Model Y in just 40 seconds, an amazing feature. Now, to make coffee using a French Press would take you 2-4 minutes; espresso has an especially brief brew time: it is in contact with the water for only 30-40 seconds.

According to data released by the German Federal Motor Vehicle Office, (KBA), Tesla was able to deliver an astonishing 17,501 vehicles solely in the last month of 2022. If Tesla maintains December’s delivery number for 12 consecutive months then the EV maker will sell 210,000 vehicles in a year.

The China Passenger Car Association has revealed that Tesla China was able to produce 55,796 in the last month of the year. This is a 45 percent decrease from the November record when Tesla produced 100,291 vehicles.

We have some leaked Tesla source code which shows a more affordable Model Y coming soon. Is this the standard range for the U.S.?

It’s fun to look back and see what Elon Musk said about discounting new cars when Tesla was ascending.

Tesla’s stock has dropped dramatically over the past 12 months. Here is just how bad things have gotten.

Although it comes a year later than planned, Tesla can finally say that it has passed the “million-car made and delivered” milestone. The figures for the last quarter of 2022 were simply spectacular.

The IRA is classifying the Tesla Model Y as a Sedan, qualifying it for only up to $55,000 for a tax credit. Tesla should only make the 7 seater version to qualify for the $80,000 SUV credit.

Tesla has revealed that FSD Beta is now running on 285,000 vehicles in North America. Although incredibly impressive and in a league of its own when compared to autonomy programs of other vehicle manufacturers, this is still significantly less than the prediction that Elon Musk made back in May saying FSD Beta will be running on 1 million vehicles by year-end.

Tesla took a Giga Berlin delivery warehouse space problem and turned it into a brilliant marketing campaign.

Last November the Tesla Model Y became best-selling car in the European market, beating heavyweight legacy models like the Volkswagen Golf along the way. This is especially relevant not only because the Model Y is a 100% electric car, but also because Tesla usually concentrates the bulk of its deliveries in the last month of each quarter; in this case, December 2022.

As we look at the upcoming IRA tax credit, there is an inconsistency with how the Model Y qualifies. It's very strange and here is how Tesla can get around it.

Since Musk announced his intention to buy Twitter, Tesla's market cap has gone down by more than $600 billion. This has caused a lot of concern to investors and Tesla employees who are all shareholders. However, today in a company-wide email Musk told employees to ignore the EV maker's stock market decline and that he believes Tesla will be the most valuable company on earth.

Reverse engineering specialist Sandy Munro will tear-down a Tesla Semi to find out what technologies make it such a disruptive vehicle in freight transportation; the purchase of the truck will be financed with crowdfunding.

With the launch of supercharger V4 and the expansion of the charging network to none Tesla EVs, 2022 has been a great year for Tesla’s supercharger network. However, adding the icing on the cake, with few days to go until the end of the year, today Tesla has announced it has officially launched the 10,000th supercharger in mainland China.

Norway intends to be more than a decade ahead of Europe's plans regarding electric cars. The market penetration rates of the Tesla Model Y are so good that it has just broken a record of more than 50 years ago.

Although Tesla grabs headlines for its amazing electric cars - and for the adventures of Elon Musk -, the company also offers a wide variety of products that are increasingly successful, such as its Megapack stationary batteries.

For the past year, Tesla has been working on a program to grant supercharger access to non-Tesla EVs. And today, the EV maker has reversed the role and has started to add third-party charging stations to Tesla's in-car navigation. Below are Tesla's requirements for a third-party charger to be added to the in-car navigation.

When searching for information on the purchase of the next car, it is clearly seen that electric cars generally cost much more upfront than combustion engine (ICE) cars. But the low operating cost of EVs means that they are already cheaper today, as per the total cost of ownership (TCO), as is the case in practically all European car segments and countries.

Tesla has affirmed 50% growth for the foreseeable future. Many doubt this is possible. What is true?

Looking for a fantastic gift idea for the Tesla owner in your life? Here are two holiday gift ideas they will be thrilled to have.

For a few months now the rumor has been running on social media that Tesla is preparing to launch a new model (“Model C” or perhaps “Model 2”: name not official yet). A proposal confirmed by Elon Musk himself, who also indicated that it will cost half the price of Model 3 or Model Y. Now it has been reported that Tesla would have acquired land in the Mexican state of Nuevo León, where it will build a new Gigafactory.

Last week we got reports suggesting Tesla has chosen Mexico as the site for the company's next Gigafactory. And today we have gotten further details regarding Giga Mexico including the fact that the plant when fully built out could cost as much as $10 billion and that Tesla is looking to announce it as soon as this Friday.

This solar electric car, built by Australian university students, has covered 1,000 Km (621 miles) at an average of 84 km/h (52 mph) on a single charge of its battery, beating the previous Guinness record (though not officially at the moment).

According to German manufacturer ZF, its new electric motors are superior in every way to those developed by in-house manufacturers, including Tesla, NIO, Porsche, and Nissan.

Tesla just announced that Giga Berlin just produced 3,000 Model Y vehicles this week. Giga Berlin continues to ramp production.

Two days ago, on December 15th 2022 Chinese manufacturer SVOLT made an important presentation, where it showed the world its commitment to development of high-tech batteries, and where up to three different chemical models were presented - all promising a high energy density-. Each one has its own physical characteristics and costs, which will basically allow electric cars that mount them to reach ranges of up to 1,000 km by 2023, when their production will begin.

Since Elon Musk announced his intention to buy Twitter, Tesla's stock price has gone down by more than 50% or by around $500 billion. This has undoubtedly angered Tesla investors who today have officially begun a campaign to upend Tesla's Board of Directors for failing to reign in Elon Musk's Twitter shenanigans. Musk in response has dismissed the concerns.
