I sure as hell hope so! If they don’t, they won’t exist in 10 years

Concept concept concept YAWN

Well, make a compelling offering. Capitalism at work.

It could be a few things.

If the battery is cold, many models use the motors to generate heat to warm the battery to an optimal temperature

If could be the onboard charger that converts AC to DC

If the battery is hot, it could also be a fan. But this is quite unlikely while charging at home. Much more likely on a road trip when DC fast charging.

It’s unfortunate that Toyota wasted so much time on hydrogen. I hope they can turn it around, but this is not a promising sign. 10k in 2030 is peanuts

Nah, this is just an anti Tesla sub. It’s kinda funny actually. I posted facts and get downvoted to oblivion. TSLA bears spotted!

You have no idea what you’re talking about

Yes, it’s absolutely not a rumor. It’s coming soon and it’s going to be game changing.

Here’s a picture taken with an early prototype that was recently unveiled in Musk’s biography https://electrek.co/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2023/09/Screenshot-2023-09-12-at-7.42.04-PM.jpg

So far here’s what we know about it: The lowest trim of this model will be ~$25,000 It will probably be a hatchback (see image) It’s being built on a new vehicle architecture where the components are ~90% fully designed and (mostly) built by Tesla It will be built in Austin Texas first, then later at a new factory being built in Mexico.

Likely Speculation: Versions of this car will likely be built at their other factories around the world. A version of the car will be sold without a steering wheel and will be called the “robotaxi”
