  • We take the newly-released Tesla Model X for a test drive, courtesy of a friend of Tested. Here's how the Model X compares with the Model S, how the gull wing doors work, and what it's like to drive with Tesla's Autopilot mode on the freeway. It's exciting and terrifying at the same time!

    I absolutely loved this demonstration. The owner tells us the pros and cons of the car, also the issues he has had with the car. Not just praising the car but also telling us the problems.I absolutely love the complexity and ease of access of the X, But the S in my opinion is the better of the three. My dad just ordered the Model 3, can't wait for it to come! Model S, 3, X (sex)

    I really enjoyed this. I liked that you asked a question and patiently waited until the interviewee answered. Imagine that! Normally you get people interviewing that are too eager to be part of the story and jump in mid-answer. It also helped that Christian is outstanding at explaining things in detail while keeping it very relevant and interesting. Congrats to both.

      lol... Can see where (idk, if not already?) cruise/auto-pilot only let you go a MAX of speed limit.... Auto parking (or ANY parking... being electric/computer operated) will not allow the car to even PARK where it would be at all, illegal... to do so. (haha, just imagining yelling at the car? "OH C'MON MAAAAAN..... I'm only running in for THIRTY FREAKIN' SECONDS! PARK, damn you.... PAAAAARK!!!) Kind of like you'd see on those silly Parking Patrol reality shows where people are straight-up cussing out some poor employee for writing them a ticket------- fined because THEY parked illegally!?! lol No speeding allowed, no parking allowed if/when it thinks you can't.... driving around forever looking for a legit spot..... might be an issue for some. =p Tho I'd prob. be terrified, freaking out using auto-pilot OR auto-park (phew, SO many are horrible parkers as-is, esp if/when parallel parking, can only imagine how bad they'd be in a reg car.... if they had only relied on auto park!) pretty sure I'd still take that chance, I mean, this thing is sweeeeeeeet!!! :) Lucky guy has TWO of 'em! SO nice... Those doors are the best, imho... Hope he enjoys the hell out of them, I sure would!!!! Live long(ER) & vape on! #ABillionLivesFilm #youarebeingLIEDto

    Always entertaining to see a person use the autopilot for the first time! Norm seemed to handle it pretty well though. Most people do the zombie impression the first time they use it, just hovering their hands over the wheel expecting it to fail at any moment. Loved the "Ahhhh!" hand up like a roller coaster through the turn.

  • @Decenium

    I think the little "touch the steering wheel" chime is also there to make sure you are not asleep behind the wheel

    • @PaleHearse
      @PaleHearse 8 років тому

      +Decenium It seems to be more situational. In a recent trip, stuck in stop and go traffic from 60-0 frequently.. it dawned on me that it hadn't come on on over an hour. So it does seem to be based largely on what inputs the car has and how it rationalizes it's environment. Speed is also a factor as when you travel 70-80mph the system wants you to touch the wheel more often as corners or other vehicles approach.
      This probably because the algorithms that trigger these events are time based.

    • @Decenium
      @Decenium 8 років тому

      PaleHearse well the stop and go part, did you do that or the car? although in both cases one can argue that that rhythm would probably keep someone awake anyway.
      It seems logical from a safety standpoint to indeed have the chime happen more often when going at higher speeds (especially when that is a constant as that is the moment people fall asleep, when not much if anything is asked of them/their brains.

    • @PaleHearse
      @PaleHearse 8 років тому

      With autopilot on, the car lane keeps and comes to a complete stop and resumes highway speed all on it's own with no input from the driver.
      As to the at speed part, I again state that for the record, I'm fine with the input from me being based on environment instead of some time based nagging.
      I did take an extended trip across the desert to Tuscon Arizona.. and I didn't find that it was putting me to sleep.. just the opposite actually. I found it left me more alert for that last push through the desert.
      Even if you did nod off, the car would not crash. This would allow you to then pull over safely and get some sleep rather than waking up in a field with a cow looking in your window.

    I drove the model x yesterday for a half hour and it's a WOW experience. Very quite ride . Smooth but with incredible excelleration. Great front seat comfort, beautiful panoramic glass roof . Regenerative braking can be set with different resistance in mind and it saves greatly on brake wear. Tremendous sound system .

It was comfortable, roomy, handled well, & had impressive range for an electric crossover SUV. I tried it in self driving mode & worked beyond my expectations. Just wish Tesla would make a similar SUV in the $25k to $30k price range.

      Well they are making the Model 3, a saloon that is gonna cost around $35k. The best part is that they say they have enough money, so they don't need to make a profit on it. Which means you should get more than what you paid for. Autopilot comes with it, too.

    My dad doesn't trust this car and thinks the autopilot is dumb because it would cause more accidents, when really it would prevent more. Humans take half a second to respond to something, and the Tesla probably takes about 1ms. Humans tailgate and take corners too fast and cause their car to spin out of control, the Tesla does not. Humans take their eyes off the road and get distracted by scenery, etc, and the Tesla does not.
    All we need now is the Tesla to see stop signs and traffic lights, and maybe get it to turn corners at an intersection, and bamb, everything is solved. Although Tesla also might need to find another way to track the road besides just using the lines on the road, because the lines aren't always trustworthy.
    I bet if EVERYone had a Tesla today, there would be nearly zero accidents, and barely any pollution. I really hope a Tesla will be mine in the future...

      In the future all the cars will be inter connected, so there will be more imformation to prevent accidents, also when the road presents some imperfections or is on remodelation could tell the car to take evasive actions and with Google maps they could tell the car where to stop in a stop sign or red lights or what is the speed limit in the road you re gong, so technology tries to prevent every bad thing that could happen as an accident or something dangerous.

      @Muskar2 8 років тому

      +mtothem1337 I heard from a Model S owner in Northern Norway (his youtube channel is jorgen Winther-Larsen) that door and window issues are all fixed by preheating the car through the app. The only problematic special case scenario there, is if you have left your car with nearly no battery left, without charging it. Because it will refuse to preheat the car if the battery is too low (below 10% or something like that). Now the reason I mentioned windows, was because Model S has this thing where it rolls down the windows a tiny bit to be able to open the doors. I'm not sure if the Model X has the same thing.
      Bjørn Nyland is another great channel about cold Tesla driving, if you want to know more.

    • @mtothem1337

      @mtothem1337 8 років тому

As for how computers and robots reflect on the workforce, with growing population, efficiency is necessary to expand our carrying capacity. Just as quick as computers take over jobs, different options become available for people to explore. It's going to be hard to keep up with based on how quickly things are changing, but things simply change.

    • @decidiousrex
      @decidiousrex 8 років тому +4

      Solar panel tech could certainly use some upgrades before I would try it on a car. The price has been dropping substantially, unfortunately not for the type that you would use on a car. These flexible panels, which are also lighter weight, suffer from a few key drawbacks that basically render them unusable for cars, namely:
      1. Their watt density. Covering a typical SUV sized roof would yield only maybe 500 peak watts. That means in ideal sunlight conditions (midday sun, no clouds, no obstructions, average temperature, sun angle, etc), it would take 20 hours to charge 10 kWh or slightly over 10% of the Model X's battery space. And, as noted in this video, the Model X is not a full size SUV.
      2. Their usable angles. You remember how I just talked about ideal sunlight conditions? Well for this type of panel, that's basically when the sun is exactly perpendicular to the panel. Do you know how often that is, in real world conditions? Almost never. Effective solar arrays make use of motors to point them at the sun, something totally not feasible on a car. In real world conditions, you would probably only get maybe 200 actual watts. Simply turning off the stereo would yield better results.
      3. The cost and weight. So, for all that fuss, the cost would have to be cheap.... and it isn't. The solar panels themselves would easily cost $1000, then you have an expensive array of electronics to make sure the panels can actually charge the batteries at the correct voltage, that the batteries don't discharge into (and thusly explode) the panels, and a way to ensure the panels don't overcharge the batteries. Oh, and did I mention that these panels, and all these electronics, will easily add 100 pounds?
      For the time being, you are MUCH better off creating a solar array with battery storage at your home and simply charging the car off that.

I hope as a young person to maybe own a first generation Tesla after I complete my education and move into my professional field. These leaps in technology at least give me some level of confidence that our human society can survive the tribulations that technological uncertainty brings forth. Cheers to you all; we might disagree politically, but I have some level of faith that we will survive together. Long live our Earth and long live our species.
