Thanks Dagogo. Great video. I ordered a new Roadster straight away, people ask 'why don't you buy their stock?'. Well when you buy a stock you aren't directly helping the company. Buying their products is the way to directly inject economic energy and push this thing forward. Can't wait to get it - come over to the USA and you can come for a ride and do a review first hand. Keep up the great work.
+GoldSilver (w/ Mike Maloney) Congrats, it looks like an incredible machine. That's some good logic and I would love to! Cheers
With people like you, soon, even the average Joe will be able to afford a Tesla. I wish I can help Elon's company but sadly not anytime soon.
The world is changing very fast that's for sure - the future is bright.
Not quite. If actually buying Tesla's was most important they would be out of business by now since they haven't sold enough to turn a profit but for a couple quarters in 10 years. This is where "faith" i.e. investors and the just rewards - or losses come in; without them you have no Tesla. Tesla already made some 1%-er cars, we need them to nail the M3 and that's what you should be buying - not some foo foo car that helps literally no one, RoadsterV1 already did that.🏎
I bought 2 original 'foo foo' Roadsters (the car that changed the playing field for EVs), 1 Model S, and have 2 Model 3 reservations, now a 'foo foo' New Roadster reservation as well. The latter will be responsible for the final nail in the argument of fossil fuel vs electric. I've bought enough now, thanks for the advice but I'm more than capable of choosing where I direct my own economic energy.
Tesla, SpaceX, NeuraLink, Boring, OpenAI... 👏👏👏
People are talking about problems.
Elon is solving them.
Knowledge Headquarters so true. Elon is going to go down in history
Also did PayPal and hyperloop
Musk is the modern day Edison
Exactly
solar city. He involved in all the most actual problems of 21st century.
A year later from this video, the production issues with Model 3 has been solved. Model 3 Production is ramping up exponentially!
Never mind the Roadster, it's the Semi-Truck that will make a real difference. Watch what happens when they get it into full production; the trucking companies will be standing in line!
I believe we owe a debt of gratitude to Tesla for the way they have forced all the other car manufactures in taking a more active roll in producing electric cars for the people.
Tesla forced nothing. GM and, Nissan both were selling way more EVs than Tesla until Tesla finally caught up in 2018.
Agreed. But they are too expensive man. It seems like Tesla is more concerned with building very fast cars than building a Polo alternative, that's what the people need.
@@noisyplanet3397 no actually the model S was a huge deal, 35k full EV.
Detroit deliberately made junk for 100yrs. made their cars nearly impossible to maintain and forced their customers to suffer every way possible.
I do not wish Detroit well.
Tesla costs will become affordable.
Tesla(person) or company?
I would like to add, however that the truck is far more important and groundbreaking, nevertheless.
I am becoming a believer in Tesla and Elon Musk!
Cheers mate! Get better soon!!
You have arguably the best channel on UA-cam for me!
Always with great points and comments!
Bests from 🇧🇷! Brazil!
Tesla is a great company, doing great work for humanity. They deserve tax cuts, not the oil industry.
Tesla is doing something great here . Even though they are facing problems i think that if they can get the model 3 production sorted then seriously they could be very best . Seriously i think tesla is doing better than all these Porsches and Mercedes . The only company which is doing something good as tesla is toyota . The company which gave hybrid vehicles to the common people.
You should watch Corbett report's "Why Big Oil Conquered the World".
If you think we have won the war against the oil companies, think again.
They do though..... Also government money
They deserve success, not tax cuts..
True true
Somethings are worth waiting for, a Tesla car and a ColdFusion video 😜
Tesla offers the safest car in production and the smartest! you cant put a price on that
yup! great content :)
Bikes & Drones lol
Tesla will likely be bankrupt and or bought out in less than 10 years in.my very humble opinion. Peace
well your opinion does not make any sense.
Good to have you back. As always it was an amazing piece of info. You convey information in a fun way.
Once again it's noteworthy the you made this video after all those hardships.
Cheers mate
Another great video. Precise and informative. Good work ColdFusion!
We need more Tesla in the world!
MeowAlien にゃあエイリアン you mean more money loosing companies??? You can imagine yourself a dreamworld but one day you'll face basic economics ;)
12 year olds dont undstand business and how when they are rapidly growing and building gigafactories etc.. on paper they lose money. They are worth over $50 billion for a reason and your worth nothing. basic economics.
the fastest accelerating electric car made 0-60 in just 1.5 seconds, remarkable.
Elon Musk is willing to loose it all to make this world better than it was before him. We definitely need more Elen Musks! ..and less Jambus.
Tell Elon to drop the prices
7:45 "So, all in all, 1.9s by Tesla in a production car *isn't bad* "... lol, understatement of the century.
Lol i thought so too...
It's faster to 60, but there's a lot of things we don't know. Is it faster beyond 60? (electric cars power fades at higher speed). We don't know how heavy it is with that huge battery. We don't know if the handling will be anything like as good as current sports cars.
It looks cool, I'm sold on the design. The sound though will be disappointing in a sports car I think. But I keep an open mind.
The main point I wanted to make though is judge it after it's been driven as a sports car by someone like Chris Harris. Right now, to me it's not yet a sports car. It's a nice looking car which is fast to 60mph. Way too many people have a massive boner over its 0-60. Being fast to 60 alone does not make it automatically a great, or even good sports car. I'm reserving judgement until I've seen it be properly driven by Pro drivers. Only then after demonstrating it's capabilities and fun factor, can it gain the title of sports car.
quarter mile in 8.9 seconds
Leonardo Mahalo yeah, so we keep hearing. That's good if you only want to drag race it all day. But you won't be drag racing it all day either, because it needs time to cool down after every single one of those 0-60 pulls, and the battery will be drained very quickly driving it like that.
neil h, Roadster will have a 200kWh battery, which is twice that of the P100D. Solid state battery, anyone? A 200kWh lithium battery won't fit in the Roadster...
The future will be pretty quiet...only the sound of rubbers rolling all over on the street. Huh... it will be strange to get used to it tbh.
Those half-evolved chimpangees they'll always want their cars to do "a lot of noise!" so be sure they'll have artificial noise. Because customers will demand it.
Heinz: Yep, just a few military tank vehicles on the roads + people dying all around !!!/...
They can always make fake engine sounds.
I like them all. If the price is lower, I really want to buy them.
Very good.
Love your topics and views. Keep it up man! Sorry for the recent troubles.
Oh my.. i hope you are safe degogo.
One thing you failed to mention that might be interesting as well: Top fuel dragsters basically need engine revision after every run, making them super-high maintenance while the tesla is more or less maintenance free in comparison.
Amazing video nontheless, thank you so much for your work.
Plus they accelerate on a partially sticky road with special tires.
Speediotsrams, it's because of they are IC - internal combustion. They dissipate lot heat, causing more friction, so more maintenance.
Also EV mechanism is very simple (mechanically) with very few moving parts also reducing much friction and maintenance.
top fuel draggsters and consumer cars are vastly different though. you cant compare the two. dragsters can go well over 300mph and can do this because they are literally ripping themselves apart. currently, and probaly not for a couple decades, electric cars wont be able to match the speed and acceleration of a top fuel dragster.
it would be more appropriate to compare this car and its maintinance to normal i.c.e. supercars. (which have problems but only after 10s of thousands of miles on the car)
There is some serious Tesla-bashing going on and from the perspective of many industries, it is to be expected. Some businesses want to get rid of the rather market-disruptive Tesla. So they come up with things like taking real problems from Tesla and blow them out of proportion. If that isn't enough, they will simply make up a story. Like TopGear did with the first Tesla Roadster.
If I could speak to all the CEO's from different manufacturers of auto-companies, I would recommend them to INVEST in Tesla, or at least in their own electric cars, rather than trying to bring Tesla down. Why? Because in the end the electric car will replace all other cars. They will. Tesla already proved that point. So instead of trying to downsize Tesla and electric cars in general, turn that ship around and spend all money on either research, or collaboration with Tesla. Daimler did, and it got them Tesla technology. The Renault Group (with Nissan) are trying their own game and it seems to be working well.
Other manufacturers are slowly getting into electric cars, but most if not all of them make real money out of ICE cars. But ICE cars are a dying breed, it is done, it is over. It is a matter of time until no ICE car will be sold, ever. So better to embrace the technology with or without Tesla, but throwing millions to keep up the old business-model is not going to work. It is like the last horse-coach-factory wants to stop automobiles to be sold. It is rather silly if you think of it.
I drive electric cars since 2012 and I own three of them now. It works for me, it works for my family. I do not have to deal with endless repairs and maintenance. The only thing that would cost me much will be the replacements of the battery-pack. But that is not even half the price of keeping an ICE on the road.
The new tesla Roadster is not a car.
It is a statement.
( I wonder if Musk will let TopGear get to review the new Roadster)
Dude. You hit the nail on the coffin. Also, I think Topgear should get its head out of its arse before it can have the credibility to review the Roadster.
Telsa is not all its cracked up to be. Elon still hasn't turned a profit yet. Lithium batteries will be a dead technology in a few years with solid state batteries finally becoming a reality. Lithium battery cars have comparable carbon footprints to combustion engines when you look at the full life cycle of the car and battery mostly because of the extremely dirty and extensive mining operations required for the metals like lithium and cobalt. The price of a Tesla car will rise drastically once the government subsidies for them end. Elon and his giga factory will be making the most expensive lithium batteries in the world when compared to the other battery manufactures. The hyperloop will never return a single dollar if it is built. The list goes on but I think I put up enough for now. Elon is just a really good salesman who scored big at winning government funding. He is not some kind of savior of humanity lol.
@michael vinson. You are only partly right. Either based on perspective, or based on fact.
I agree with you that it would be great to have solid state batteries that will be a standard consumer battery someday. However, what makes you think that Elon won't be the first one to adjust with that situation. I will agree if he doesn't have the patent. Even if SSD's are going to be available, the Lithium batteries made by panasonic-tesla is already way cheaper than all the other manufacturers. I buy mine from China and its really cheap. Tesla's is even cheaper but they don't sell it as OEM.
Lifecycle analysis? Dirty coal from the plant providing EV power vs. Gas at pump for comparable ICE distance is comparable in "carbon". However, gas at stations don't even count extraction, processing, distribution, shipping, et al. In fairness, we haven't counted coal mining. Which is LESS carbon and power intensive as gas. You need an equal amount of power to process an equal amount of gas meaning around 9000-12000watts of fractionalizing to generate a liter of gas. (a liter of gas is around 9000watt of power).
Extraction? Lithium is less mined and more shoveled and pumped. Seriously, if the saudis and israelis are serious, they can also sell it as by product from desalination plants.
Cobalt is a by product of nickel and copper (and some other metals) production.
Jos van der Veen: Terrible timing + geoengineering techno electric "progressive" overloads. Due 2 their raping Tesla of his simple concepts + inventions, of only taking a little from nature, while giving back alot 2 its sourceful purposes + need purposes, 4 the human whole, 4 a productive circle. Which was greedily stolen by non-logicistics, unrealistic pagan greedy WhoreShipPing SoUlls, 2 completely control + eventually crash GOD's Natural Gifts + HuMan BeINgs !!!/...
+sam guapo: Elon Musk is an Evil SoUll !!!/...
Glad you're feeling well. Looking forward to more and more videos. Cheers!
I would want a Tesla Motorcycle
Ellon Parham Check our the Zero S
AKzebraMiner I've seen it before. It's awesome but I would love to see tesla's take on it.
Thinking the same thing! I can imagine if Tesla were to make something like the Zero, it would have a longer range because of their newer battery technology.
It would be awesome if it could outperform 600-1000cc bikes as well. Or better yet.........LET IT OUTPERFORM EVERY BIKE!!! lol
Have next best thing, an Energica Ego..
Can you do video about aerofarms and next generation of agriculture please
YES Please
Maybe Sundrop Farms in South Australia
Vertical farming please
glad you are well again. thx for the video and keep it up! love your vids and music!
Hey Dagogo, get well soon bruv. Great video. Keep them coming. Cheers!
Tesla is opening new gateways ,
Today an electric car is now faster than petrol , just think what it will be in future.
So true man. I wish i could buy that car.
Arefin's tech Sure, but it will never be the same as a car with ICE
True, it's just not the same. Kicking them rev-match downshifts before a corner, doing a quick clutch-kick to bring the ass out and hearing the engine output raw power while you go sideways on that twisting road is just an insane feeling that you can't have in a Tesla. Even if I had all the money, I'd still get a mildly tuned BRZ over any Tesla. (or maybe a 911, or an E92, or a Supra, maybe even a Mustang, anything really, as long as it has them clutch-pedals and them sticks haha.
Arefin's tech quicker* the Bugatti is still the fastest in the world.
Edit:The koenigsegg Agera is the fastest in the world.
〘ΞRICK〙 And Koenigsegg just crushed it as well as Bugatti's latest record (0-400-0kph) and their own record that crushed Bugatti's latest record.
Venkat Vishwanathan is pronounced as- When-cut Wish-va-na-thun.
I guess.
As an Indian, I can confirm you are correct lol
Jaime Carvalho yeah ur right lol
Wen-cut-wish-wuh-naathn
I approve this as I am an Indian
Correct
Great video! Very informative! You have a great way of explaining things!
sending you some love & support! thank you for your wonderful videos!
proof is, they're so engaging people barely realized that you were having personal problems!
Goodluck!
Great video as usual. The Roadster is an impressive car, particularly the millage, over 1000ks on a single charge. But the thing is that most people tend to mix up acceleration with how fast a car can perform. Acceleration only determines how quick a car is from a standstill. There are other factors to consider like the power to weight ratio, how many Gs the car can take etc. The Porche 918 Spider might have a slower acceleration but it can/may still beat the Roadster on a race track. We don't know how heavy the Roadster is so it's best not to make comparisons about how fast it is compared to other cars. Great video again
Tesla’s biggest problem is that their cars are so cool everyone wants one
Maybe
And they are not available in a lot of places.
Nice problem to have. ;)
Phillip Dvorak well said
Model 3 profit margin will be the same as the other cars once in full production. Manufacturing is more automated than Model S & X.
All the best and I hope your health is well from now. Definitely one of my favorite channels, keep up the amazing videos!
Get well soon!! Good breakdown, very informative...
Your work is unique. #ColdFusion.
Rimac & Tesla will kick ass hard in the next years :)
B.S., these S.O.B.'s robbed + killed Tesla's Body + Character !!!/..
+ Teslas Truely HuMan Natural Concepts 4 WorldWide AdvanceMeants !!!/... Because Big Plan Timing means All, 4 All + not a few !!!/...
Who on earth is RIMAC? ;-)
WTH RIMAC ??!!? WHEN 'LUCID 'IS ACTUALLY MORE IN POSITION TO BE A TESLA CONTENDER IN MORE WAYS ALREADY THEN ANY OTHER COMPANY :-I
Check out the new Telsa - ua-cam.com/video/ycjmq-ad7d0/v-deo.html
Rimac is a fringe car maker. Tesla is a niche manufacturer. They can't outperform the big ones. Once Porsche, GM, Audi, Aston Martin, Mercedes, BMW etc get on the game, Tesla is pretty much done. The Model S really created a new market segment. Model 3 doesn't; and there are better players out there than Tesla. Let's not forget: Tesla has inferior batteries, they pay more for their batteries than their competition, miserable fit and finish, it's more like a 60k car costing 100k+. The Gigafactory is already outdated once battery technology moves on. We have no sign of a Gen 2 Model S. I wonder not. Yet, I love the Teslas and they are exactly what I'd expect a car to be. I'm not a fan boy, I just like to deal with reality. That's why I am not preordering my Model 3. I'm waiting. There will be better cars available.
Welcome back. Sorry to hear about the tough times. Good video
Thanks for still making the video even with life kicking your ass. Much appreciated!! :-)
As an old school mechanic, the idea of silent cars verses a rumbling V8 is an anti-climax to say the least, but at 1.9 sec 0-60mph, if it was affordable I think I’d get used to it!!😁
It's like climaxing without knowing it. 😩
Sounds like the end of OPEC is nearer than we would have imagine.
for big international flights sure, but soon enough domestic flights will be battery powered too. There's no telling where battery tech will take us.
It's gonna be a long time before your average auto enthusiast will give up the wonderful exhaust notes the internal combustion engine can produce.
Oil will still be used for hundreds of years and the more niche it is the more they can charge for the oil. Saudi Arabia has been keen on selling little at good prices to make it last...
Man... Always... Your channel is one of the best youtube channels i could ever find... Btw the background music that you use, they integrate really well...
Great video as always. Glad to have you back in good health. Looking forward to more of your rich and insightful documentaries.
HOPE YOU'RE WELL, MAN!
coldfusion loves ELON MUSK so much..I too
Naman Bajaj who does not love Elon Musk ?
coldfusion not love Elon Musk, they make video of Tesla Roadster, and add problem of Model 3 at end, what is point in this? In half year no one will remember this.
Elon Musk is the best entrepreneur ever. Back in the days a person like him would be killed by government thugs paid by corporations.
@Sędziwój This is the right way to relate about something. What's the point to say only good things while it's known that they do have problems. He is not a promoter but some sort of researcher and journalist.
He not talk about present, but plans and future, and in this kind of video you should only focus on it, because this Model 3 problem may be even today pass (info for customers to select they model 3 options and delivery in 4 weeks). If he relate current problem with possible long term problems, it be ok, be he don't do it.
But for me current problems in production of Model 3 are only good sign for future, because they learn next new thing.
Hey man love your videos, sorry to hear you were sick and about your house. Take care!
Good to have your back, Dagogo, and with another great video!
" I've been sick...oh and my house got broken into... " this guy
Elon is my role model. I know I can't be like him but atleast I can try!
Hey, you can be like him. Get yourself on a path of continuous growth and you´ll get very far!
Thank you for the comment Marcos! Not all people are nice to others on UA-cam comment section! :)
me too, read his biography and lots of interviews etc,... simply amazing human being (but not without his flaws)
1. Buy bitcoin
2. ???
3. Build spaceships
Agreed. Elon is worthy of being anyone's role model. I search daily for new Elon videos. They are inspiring. I also like the videos of Bob Lutz and others that criticize Tesla and predict Tesla's financial demise. I think Tesla's competitors are afraid.... very afraid.
It just simply blew me...was missing your videos,nice to see you back.
Sorry to hear about your illness and your burglary I sincerely hope everything is ok for you keep the great videos coming! love from England!
Seeing your video i bought a tesla in asphalt 8 😁
Took u a while.
iamAX 830 i am new to the game
Elon Musk is simply the smartest man on earth, and I love the fact that a lot of oil refineries and coal powered power plants are slowing down and "shutting down"!!! We see more Wind Generators and Solar across the world thanks to Elon. I had a commercial drivers license for 30 years and have dove my share of Semi trucks. I'd love to get behind the wheel of the Tesla Semi and drive it from West Coast to the East Coast. The Tesla Roadster is also very cool. I'd get one if I was in my prime years, but I still prefer the Model X and Model S. Thanks for the great video. Keep on Truck'n.
Dennis Whitlock nobody talks about the downsides of this innovation
Yeah. the downside is there are less chances for someone to cash in my life insurance due to professional health risks.
Dennis Whitlock: Looks + sounds great, till U view the big GoVernIng ReLegIons + their ManUFactured (re)ProDuctIon pictures in adjacent 2 real Humans + Real time + Real space !!!/...
So, What IS the downside? Innovation always has a downside for those trolls... as they need something to criticize, without really having a clue about technology!
Aida m Garilogotan
Great Video Dagogo, I hope that you´ll get better soon, Best Regards from Europe.
Man I just like to let you know that I have been really enjoying your Videos. It is apparent that lots of effort has gone in and love the research youve done. I kept forgetting to write this but when I saw that you also have links to information sources you have used I was reminded to write and say thanks. So Thanks and I look forward to more...
7:10
You missed two, the electric white zombie Datsun 510, and the electric zombie 222 68 mustang, who both have sub 2 second 0-60 times
Nice presentation...Could you please do a video on Alibaba ?... It's becoming a real giant in the world of internet companies (Might be interesting to put on some of your insights for it too)
No!!!!
I'm glad I bought that t shirt from you. You're doing an amazing job. Keep it up! Hope everything turns out well
Sorry to hear of your recent troubles, but I'm glad you're okay. It's good to have you back.
Well done for an amazing video. U gone to Jalopnik, mototrend, etc. man the amount of effort u put. Well done . And that Hellcat demon need special front tyre, good fuel to do that.
0-60 isn't everything, going around corners are just as important. But whatever, if Tesla can pull it off, kudos to them.
1001speedster it's much easier to measure a 0-60 time and its not as dangerous as a lap on the nurburing in a prototype car :) but you are right,the cornering i think is more important,cuz' in real life you corner much more than do a 1/4mile drag or 250+
It's everything for about 95% of buyers that *DONT* track their cars. An obvious majority.
True, but 1.9s to 60 is a good reason to buy a car
G H Doesn't matter, other manufacturers focus on BOTH straight line speed and ability to be tracked. In terms of engineering it's far more impressive having a car go around tracks and in a straight line very fast.
Stop making excuses, your mentality is limiting actual constructive criticism of Tesla as a brand. That's a very unhealthy attitude that doesn't benefit Tesla at all, wake up, Tesla is FAR FROM PERFECT.
95% of Ferrari and Lamborghini buyers don't track their cars, but Ferrari still focuses on that performance metric because IT'S A CHALLENGE and give the brand a MORE IMPRESSIVE IMAGE.
Great vid mate, glad to hear your back in the driving seat.
Get better soon mate! Thanks for the awesome video!
The beast ,Tesla roadster loving it
That moving blue and red thing from the intro 0:05, i've got it as a background in my pc #WallpaperEngine
Radu Dragne sick
name
Keep up the good work, love your channel
Epic videos always #Coldfusion ... keep up the good work. Hope no harm and loss came to you or your family. Wishing good luck to you bro. Whenever I see your videos I get a feeling of a huge media company. Are you a single person youtube channel or are you a media group. Just asking because I love the way you produce your videos. Its highly professional feel. Thank you :)
agreed
Please make Video on How Big is
Honda & Microsoft
“Coinigsegg”
"Shyron"
I'm pretty sure those are both the correct ways of pronouncing them...
It's not. It's "Kohnigsegg" and "Sheeron"
TheZondaS Koenigsegg is actually pronunced more like Kirnigsegg, but that still doesn't sound completely right because there isn't the letter ö (oe) in English. The only reason people say Kohnigsegg is because it's easier for English speakers to say.
Well, a whole lot of people mispronounce Volkswagen ("Vo" as in volt and "wa" as in water when it should be more like "folksvagen") and no one bats an eye. But then someone mispronounce Königsegg or Chiron and everybody loses their minds.
D'gogo, you the man. Great video - spot on as usual. Love your style mate
Glad to hear you're alright! Thanks for another excellent video.
The electric engine's are so revolutionary, the way they dont have to rev up and have straight torque
FATCAT we've had electric motors for years, there's nothing revolutionary there.
Also, pun intended?
Adam Taylor ??
Adam Taylor wow
The real revolution here is how Elon is making all that work! Specially all the improvements in their battery tech!
A normal car should have dozens of small electric engines. Maybe a normal car even has more electric motors than a tesla
That was a huge picture...
This is a GREAT channel! Thanks for all your hard work on these stories.
Cheers mate! Glad you’re feeling better. ColdFusion is by far the smartest And most informative UA-cam channel out there! Can’t wait to join the Tesla family!Can’t wait for your next video! Blessings!
Base model 10,000 pound of torque? Lol.
Not pounds, 10000NM of torque. Roughly 10000kg of torque, or I think roughly 22000pounds of torque.
this video SWEET MY soul
I WANT to make a reaction video
just because i was so inspired by the ROADSTER
SO FCKINNN COOOL
BngElevate lol ahhhhh
BngElevate thanks haha
BngElevate inspired by ppl from original tesla video we wanted me to make it
bro... lmao
great video...great honest review... very well done... keep up the good work mate.
Great vids! Great productions too.
I wouldnt compare car value just by 0-60 times, not saying that the roadster is bad value for money tho
Mavime I agree. People should wait for Nurburgring(spelling?) times before saying this is the future.
The roadster blows the competition on every metric. It's all-electric so it's insane performance, no engine noise, and very energy efficient. Tesla is also known for offering more innovative features
Although true, the car will inevitable have problems with weight, as do the rest of Tesla's lineup. With the advertised "200" kWh battery (unless we see leaps and bounds of improvement of battery tech over the next few years), the car is almost guaranteed to be much heavier than a traditional super car.
Will is be faster? Hell yeah it will! Good around the corners? We'll see in three years!
Yea, the comparison is a bit awkward. But 1.9s in the production car for 200k cost really breaks the record.
it does 0-60 in 1.9, 0-100 in 4.8, 1/4 mile in 8.8 seconds and top speed of above 250. if they release a performance model which has as many weight reductions as possible, it could really improve on range and speed
12 dislikes from General Motors
Take care...ur videos are amazingly informative.. thanks!
Keep the videos coming! Love the channel.
_Fantastic_
If they could only put solar panels on the roof of the semi's, to recharge them while they drive.
Best wishes for your Health! Perfect Documentary good job!
Sorry to hear about your house being broken into. I hope everything is okay and I'm glad you're able to get back to making videos :)
i feel like ive witnessed history like no other .... ya im a car guy
hunter braden No, your not, or you'd realize this car will basically be a dragster. The battery needed to get 600 miles of range means the battery alone will weigh more than a hellcat. If you want to buy a $200k car that can't turn well, go for it, otherwise, look at a 570s or a viper or a zr1
According to analytics it will take tesla 4 years until the production of the model 3 wait can go from 1 year to 3 months this is why tesla doesn’t want you to buy the model 3 this year alone tesla has gotten over 400,000 orders on the model. Which makes this car the most successful car of all time you might call it the iPhone 6 of cars
You, your videos and music have been missed. Keep up the good work. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Welcome back dude. Another great video. Keep up the good work.
to really be better, it'd have to go on the nordshleife. And I feel it won't go as fast as an aventador SV let alone a 918 there.
Your Local Smartass that electric car is a project though, not a mass-produced or road legal car.
But can he go 1000 km?
Just as long as I never have to go to a god dammed gas station again, I'm in.
Hot Dog -- but how about endurance at high speeds?
I wanna start this comment with a positive critic. The Tesla Roadster isn't just a distraction strategy for investors to not run away. The developement of a new Automotive model takes 3-6 YEARS. So it is save to assume that the Roadster II is around for some time.
I also really like the design of this car. The Model S was always an ok-car. I didn't hate it at all, but it also didn't blew me away. The Roadster II however is very sexy. I like it a lot.
But besides that.. Gosh, I'm really dissapointed by the way you make these videos about Tesla and how biased they are. I for myself own Tesla stocks and stand behind the company, but this channel seems more like a promotion for Tesla (and especially Elon Musk) than anything else.
To me it seems like nobody is really questioning the numbers Tesla has put out, in fact almost all people take them for granted. For example one of the limiting factors for Acceleration and Topspeed is the wheels and the tyre. In order to reach 60mph or even 62mph(exactly 100kmh) in 1,9 sec as Elon Musk has claimed, there needs to be a new (street)-tyre developed that can performe this task. There are already racing cars that can go 0-100kmh in less than 1,9 but as mentioned, they use specific non-street-legal tyres that get replaced after MINUTES.
So either Tesla got a nice deal with a big tyre manufacturer like Michelin (they produce the tyres of the Bugatti Veyron and Chiron) or those numbers are rather "optimistic" *just like the production numbers of the Model 3*
The part where you compared the Roadster to other vehicles, like the Porsche 918, McLaren P1 and Lamborghini Aventador made me very furious. This comparison does not make much sense, because the 918, P1 and Aventador are performance vehicles for the track. They are the pinacle of Racecar Engineering and can put astonishing Numbers on any Racetrack in the world. You could compare them to the Dodge Challanger Daemon and conclude that the Daemon is the best, because it has a better 0-100 time and costs less, but if you compare them on the track, the Daemon has no chance against any sports car.
I just can conclude that the same applys to the Tesla Roadster.
Many People might not know, but there already *is* a proper electric Sports Car and it is even manufactured in Croatia.
The Rimac Concept_One. In fact you should really do a video on that car too! It is really amazing what these Croatians are doing.
cost: 1Million $
0-100kmh: 2,5sec
top speed: 365kmh
Power Output: ~1380HP,
Tourque: 1,600NM
But now here are the IMPORTANT Numbers:
Battery: 91kWh. That's less than half the kWh that the Roadster II(200kWh)
Weight: 1900kg
This car performs very good against competition like Bugatti or Koenigsegg. They're all very good for Topspeed and acceleration, but when it comes to cornering their immersive weight hinders is their biggest enemy. That's also why a car that costs less than 1/10th of the Bugatti or the Koenigsegg can outrun them on the Nürburg Ring.
And now Tesla enters the playfield with a car that has double the battery. We can give Tesla the benefit of the doubt that their battery pack is significantly better than the one of the Rimac Concept_One. Actually we have to, but I will come to that in a moment.
The next thing is cutting costs. As we have seen, the Roadster has, like the Model 3, a very minimalistic interior. I suppose this is purely for cost. The next thing that cuts cost is the Chassis. It will be simply made out of metal. Carbon fiber would be simply too expensive and I also haven't found any source suggesting that.
Now, Rimac is not just anybody, the company knows what they're doing and their Batteries are in fact so good, that even other manufacturers buy parts from them rather than Tesla (e.g. Koenigsegg and Aston Martin).
Now either Tesla has somehow managed to build their battery pack so light, that it can even compensate for the extra weight of the metal body, or the Tesla Roadster will weight significantly more than the Rimac.
I guess that the Batteries will continue to improve till 2020 and be even lighter than before, but the Roadster will most probably weight more than the Rimac.
And I haven't even started on the suspension of the vehicle... If the Roadster will feature the pneumatic system like the Model S, it may be great for a comfortable ride even at high speeds, but it is not very performance oriented.
Also I haven't taken heat into account... The early Performance Model S cars had the problem of overheating electric MOTORS. Idk if these Problems are now improved, however this comment is already way too long so to end it here my conclusion:
Instead of comparing the roadster to 1-2 Million $ Cars ask how Tesla could achieve this.
Be more critical, more investigative
Excellent observations the information that's missing is what kind of brakes and tires are being used to deal with that speed and acceleration.
This is written REALLY well.
You might as well make your own channel, it would definitely get good views👍
It's a daily driver. Not a dragster or road racer. Jesus. Get a life.
First off, very long comment.
Second off, a concept vehicle? Pretty sure the Roadster 2.0 is a production vehicle not a concept vehicle.
Third off, i'm positive the person in this video was just comparing 0-60mph times & prices strictly & not track times & drag races.
You my friend have really good taste in music, cheers!
Great to hear your feeling better!
Actually you sounds like a professor at University.😂😋😎
Nikola Tesla is clapping somewhere
Hope you are better, great video!
Thanks Dagogo!! Love your videos
I sound like a broken record by now as I keep praising Elon Musk have been for years.
There's a lot to like
When you've got that much money, it's not difficult to bring in experts in whatever field you want, and accomplish quite a lot. He's just a very rich computer geek, not some mystical superhuman entity like the worshippers like to make out.
Teslas are souped up golf carts. Electricity itself was a great discovery. IC engines with their complexity were an amazing invention. A conventional car body and chassis with electric motors instead of an engine are neither a discovery or an invention.
I'm not trying to diss electric cars, I'm just saying that there's nothing amazing about them. Elon Musk hasn't gone and done something that any other car manufacturer in existence couldn't have done had they wanted to.
Tino: Evident, only one side of ur cranial hearing functions in True nature !!!/...
Tino: Elon Musk is a criminal mind + not an inventor, those he stoled + banged out of "his" ManUFactUrEd government slaves !!!/...
+Little Bit: + Tesla was 1st.
Is anyone else getting a weird feeling about the roadster like being jealously excited
Totally! will you be purchasing the roadster 2.0 when it releases?
whose who 🙋
Great video and great research. Thank you!
Happy that you're better again! :D
