The scale goes up to 4 which is rated to a 2” steel ball being dropped and impacting at terminal velocity. So if it’s a 4” piece of hail it’s still in the same class. On a rare occasion hail can go through the roof into your house.
I’m waiting for his “hail proof” claim to bite him in the ass one day. Every year here in north Texas I see a hailstorm produce a baseball sized ones that go through windows. Armored glass or not I bet you its going to crack.
Yes we did and discussed it when the poster that said it was 2500 pounds was put online last week. The extra payload puts it into heavy duty truck category. You may have noticed Elon today said it could do more than 2500. They just won’t rate it for more for vehicle classification.
Isn’t it possible they’re keeping it limited until they have more data from the fleet on the battery pack cycles and will in the future allow faster charge rates via OTA? My guess is they’re going to tinker around with it until they find the sweet spot of longevity vs charge rate.
If I didn’t have a 2017 Nissan Titan I wouldn’t have the M3 that I have today. In 3 1/2 years 55k miles the Titan was in the shop inoperable about 13 times. Engine would shut off randomly. Check engine light on more than off. Rotors warped within 20k miles. Chrome plating peeling off wheels...
I work with new construction and my builder has 200 amp service on 1557 sq ft houses with over half the panel not utilized. That’s also the only way I’m seeing it built in North Texas. Maybe other parts of the country are different.
Rented from Hertz three weeks ago and no charging cable was included and the car was not cleaned. Very disgusting but at 11 pm and a day of traveling you do what you gotta do.
Same, I was always hoping to see that and planned for it. That’s why I’ve used mobile connector 100% of the time since I got my M3 and didn’t buy the wall connector. Reading so many people say that V2H would eat into power wall sales that would keep Tesla from doing it has put a damper on the...
If I were to place a bet I’d expect 80 amps for 19.2 kw draw with a new version of the wall connector. Cadillac Lyriq is the only one I know off the top of my head that offers that as an option and that’s for a 102 kw battery. Guessing a 400 wh/mi usage that puts it at a charge speed of 48 mph...
