John please continue these visits with Terry and Caresoft. These deep dives and Terry's knowledge are so fascinating to hear about. The thinking of Tesla and Legacy automakers couldn't be further apart. Tesla really is thinking about car construction in a completely different way. Seems like the gap that the Legacy automakers need to bridge to Tesla is a near impossible one if they don't really re-evaluate their old ways.
We can see here the result of Tesla's MobAI approach. A mob of, say, 12 engineers working a 12 hour shift trying to optimise a component to be 1g lighter, 1c cheaper, 1 second faster to make or to draw 1mW less power. It's well worth watching Joe Justice's videos on how Tesla powers through this accelerated evolution is a crazy short time.
You actually believe this bs? You really think Tesla is ahead of the many far more advanced established car manufacturers? Have you not even glanced at videos on Tesla's production and how stone-age it is compared to even the most cheap products of established manufacturers? Haven't you heard about how established manufacturers have reached near-zero-waste production and sustainably powered production (even for their most cheap cars) while Tesla only publishes fake images with solar panels on their factory roofs which aren't really there, and chuck half a car's worth of waste out the side door every few hours? Tesla's production line is a dirty mess of scattered cardboard boxes and plastic bags, with employees marking things down on paper lists...and Elon points the interviewer to a robot carrying parts around...which is all scuffed and battered because he got it used, as it's something all manufacturers have used before Tesla was even founded ne it probably came with his purchase of the Toyota factory.
Sandy Monroe said when he worked for Ford back in the 80s, the engineers wanted to switch to a 48 volt system.... but the bean counters killed that idea.
I love these Autoline videos with Terry at Caresoft. Terry and John do a great job, with Terry's extensive engineering experience, and John's enthusiasm and vast general auto industry knowledge. I can't wait for the upcoming videos on the Cybertruck 48 V system and battery pack.

Instead of throwing out jargons only they understand, everything is laid out in context with common and thoughtful language. Thank you so much for the presentation, I'll look forward to more of your 'classes'
Excellent program. Between this and Munro teardowns I learn so much detail and innovation especially from Tesla but also how they compare to other OEMs
35:00 the line going to the battery pack from the air reservoir is absolutely to pressurise the battery pack if you are going into deep water - eg crossing a river.
I saw in a video that there is a dashboard setting button that allows the driver to set the vehicle for water fording. I believe they said it was indeed to provide positive pressure to the battery pack to help keep water from intruding.
The Munro teardowns are good if “Munro” himself is nowhere near the action. My rather childish protest at his presence is a mandatory thumbs down. But yeah, these are great, I love them.
Exactly what I was thinking when Sandy is around he makes assumption and comments about the parts and design that he doesn’t even know why the engineers did what they did. Can’t wait for them to look at the battery pack and see what they have to say about the extra room in the battery pack.
Tesla is the best car company ever! No gas stations, No oil changes, No smog check, No corrupt dealership, No catalytic converter and as fast as a $650,000 Lamborghini !
What??!! here in Europe them Teslas only go 120 Km/hr tops, or they will be impounded, and the driver losing the license; so, for that a 30 year old 200 euro only, Fiat uno is a much better car
These artificial/arbitrary specification requirements of Legacy OEMs are going to be the death of them and clearly nothing Tesla in particular is worried about when they're making their Cross Car Beam that's way more elegant and efficient in every single way.
bullshit!!!! other manufacturers actuallt builds solid cars that have been used in the most harschest environments on earth! that cybertruck is pile of junk compared to a 30 years old toyota hilux! the offroad test alone shows it! lets not talk about the old hilux been overloaded for decades moving people and goods on almost not existant roads! all that plastic in the dashboard.
The cycbertruck function of pressurizing the battery pack is called Scuba mode for off roading. A Tesla head engineer talked about it on the Jay Leno Cybertruck review.
@@jtkstudios4168 you’re probably right. So many Tesla owners I’ve run into suddenly become car experts. A three minute conversation shows the contrary.
@user-vx7vi3vq1c the same can be said about those that hate Tesla. The fringe people squawk the loudest, especially online. Experience, education, and understanding goes a long way
Excellent presentation sir! The parts were well layed out and easily identified on the tables. I loved the evolution story on the battery table. Fascinating stuff!!!
Stunning how superior the Tesla engineering is over legacy manufacturers. Unsurprisingly when it comes to batteries and the EV drive train, but it blows me away that they reinvent the fundamentals like steering and the front dash cross car beam. Achieving lightness, cost efficiency and superior functionality all at once......
What makes you think they are better at steering? Steer-by-wire? Rear wheel steering? All have been done before. And for the front dash cross bar - the plastic clip on is a thing that I do hate on any modern car. Plastic tends to weaken over time, and plastic clips tend to crack. Unlike a bolt or screw. And yeah, sure, in a manufacturing perspective (and cost), it might be great, but it does suck for anyone who wants or likes to fix or upgrade their own car.
@@midakassi "REAL" steer by wire is a First with the Cybertruck (no mechanical linkage) Some earlier attempts all had mechnical linkage as" backup" which is a glorified power assist system...... You are correct that rearsteer is no innovation as many cars have had it before. Not aware its been used in the truck segment before, but thats just a minor thing in anycase. So what are the innovations that blow me away? The gigacastings that reduce complexity, increase quality and reduce weight. The dual purpose use like the model S suspension airtank and brace. The dashcross bar might not be a good solution for adding other mods, but brings lightness and ease of assembly that drives down cost with-out sacrificing functionality. The 48V architecture and ethernet ring reduces weight, cost and improves speed og communications and performance for the energy hungry low voltage devices such as the steering rack motors. Oh, the Octavalve heatpump system, while heatpumps are not needed In ICE cars that turns most energy into heat anyway. ITs the kind of innovation in simplification , integration with high performance. Kind of like the Semiconductor world.. Maybe some of that Silicon valley DNA is why Tesla is so disuptive even in the areas where legacy has nearly a 100 year headstart ....
How do you know these videos are excellent? Have you seen an actual expert evaluate these videos? Have you seen criticism of these videos, any benchmarking?
Outstanding video, actually led me to have a better understanding of the "process." Cannot wait to see the next one. Loved how you have the parts displayed for us to view.
Awesome to see this. And I'm thinking that this version of cybertruck is the crudest and least optimal design it will ever have. From here it will only get better and all the stuff learned will go back into their other cars. I hope Caresoft finds this UA-cam association with you profitable.
Tesla ahead of 'legacy' automakers?? Based on what? Ahead by almost going bankrupt and only saved by CCP financing and building them a massive factory, setting up a whole Chinese supplier network for them, forcing them to switch to Chinese batteries, and then flooding the Japanese and European markets with these Chinese cars?
Completely agree. Facts are laid bare on those tables. PHEVs are the biggest scam of this generation. Shame on Ford and GM for subjecting innocent Americans to this deceit.
Cross-car beams: The Mg one is lighter than all of the others and has the same features as the plastic hybrid which is heavier. For Earth Day 2024, let’s recycle these materials and stop using petro-plastics.
I'd add Full Self Driving to the benefits of the steer by wire. The extra bits are to completely isolate the steering function from the person in the seat, eventually.
Speed-dependant variable ratio on front, speed-dependant direction on rear. Feedback - that was one complaint hypothesised against steer-by-wire. For a larger vehicle, you’d wonder why it took a century to dream it up. Curiously, it’s the reason for going "48-volt". Which explains the century part.
@@iandavies4853 I just wonder how reliable all of these steer by wire components will be in ten years of winters, rough roads, etc. How safe is that old beat up Tesla speeding toward you at 160 mph relative speed?
This is an awesome video, very well presented and made easily digestible for the public. Just one small question that came up for me at 35:00 , when he was talking about the ability to pressurize the battery compartment for the "Wade" mode I believe it is called. He makes reference to them being confused, and having to theorize why the battery had an air supply. Maybe I am wrong but I remember a Cybertruck engineer out right saying it had a "Wade" mode that used air pressure to keep the battery dry quite a while ago, so I can't understand how this was a mystery at this point to them. But maybe I am just incorrect about the timeline.
They do catch up!The Ford Lightning is the way better deal then the Cybertruck!If legacy cant catch up,how come Tesla only sells around 2 million cars this year?
What a wonderful display and technical walkthrough and comparison. It takes a lot experience and wisdom to speak as simply as these two did about such complex engineering. Great stuff.
Вы прекрасны, ребята! Обожаю смотреть, насколько изыскано красиво вы думаете и говорите, насколько Терри любит и восхищается прекрасными идеями инженеров Tesla, - мне нравится в ваших обзорах буквально все! Пожалуйста, снимайте побольше таких видео!!!)))
Love matching these vids, what an expert on automotive engineering, makes the whole presentation so easy to understand for a non- automotive guy like myself.
What a complete 180° turn from Thursday's (yesterday's) show. Here we look at the future and how it's becoming part of the present. yesterday's show was about the past Digging its heels in saying nothing to look at here move along in the status quo. I'm sensing that John is slowly trying to convert all the Detroit motorheads to the EV movement. He can't push too hard or he'll lose a very large audience.
Exactly. Watching that show I was thinking, they just don’t know what they are talking about. Only echoing main stream media distorted by legacy auto talking points. Demand for EVs slowing? No. Look at the global figures. Demand for legacy EVs slowing, yes. Plus, they don’t want to make them, because they are losing a lot per vehicle. So they will build hybrids for a few years then go bust. They will be saved by the govt or bought by the Chinese
@@89bazolythe fact that you say that, really tells me you have no idea what you're talking about. Unless of course you just admire China so much that your loyalty to America just jumped out the window...🤦
@@jeffcarroll3831No, it is just logic. Legacy cannot change fast enough and will just try to mitigate their demise. The Chinese can be admired or not, it has nothing to do with loyalty. Loyalty to a failing system is your problem.
@@jeffcarroll3831how will legacy auto compete with the Chinese? Protectionism is the only way. It still amounts to government aid. No emotion is required in this assessment. Legacy auto in the US is about making trucks and the profit margins on those will come down, already happening.
It wouldn't look that much more complex than gms system, if you didn't completely disassemble every part and spread it out across the table. It honestly seems intentional. I'm looking at all the parts for the Tesla. And trying to imagine it assembled. Also, you're not showing the power steering pump, Which would no doubt make the gm system look more complex
The engineering behind the Cybertruck front/rear steer by wire is mind boggling. The average buyer simply won’t appreciate the design, engineering, validation and precision parts manufacturing that went into the CT.
The reason I pulled the trigger on a Model Y in early 2020 was because I watched Munro tear it down. That said, I did plan on buying an EV and had just installed more solar + a Nema 14-50 receptacle in my garage. But, my original plan was a used Model 3 at the time.
@@MICHGO1Did you? Do you understand what's missing from the video? Do you understand that lots of scammers make youtube videos to make money off of the clicks of absolutely clueless people? Now go watch some crypto videos, and the "one trick to make a million dollars"...
It's amazing how advanced Tesla is in their engineering. You can see EV's are the future despite some current misgivings. ICE cars 70%+ inefficient, EV's 70%+ efficient. Soon to be better with new battery technology. I can't wait !
Way cool! There are always pros and cons. Aluminum wiring has major reliability issues compared to cooper. Not always a good idea to have tanks (or battery cases) subject to external shocks. Glad that Tesla is paving the way.
In both EV and ICE, it seems that power density matters more than energy density. You can always recharge the battery, be it from an alternator or the high-voltage pack of an EV. If you can increase power density for the same energy density, you could make the low-voltage battery smaller. But what battery technologies could help with that?
Yes, these are better as we get comparison shown to us. Also, Munro is now inserting adverts for other businesses into its videos. This Caresoft/Autoline presentation of what Caresoft can do is far superior. Even though Caresoft is paying to be on Autoline, what we learn about products is not diminished. Its a pity that Chinese companies are queuing up for learnings from Caresoft and other businesses, but US and European not so much. Great info about vibration at low speeds in combustion engine vehicles.
I love that it was not all Tesla bro fanboy talk. For example, how complex the Tesla glove box design with motor and plastic gearing. And that fly by wire did NOT reduce weight and complexity, but rather increased capabilities. I also appreciate that as a pathfinder vehicle with some first iterations of technology, the CyberTruck was not fully optimized.
John is trained as a media pro his whole life. Sandy is an engineer his whole life. Engineers aren't known for their communication abilities. They are both respect worthy old feckers.
@@fcv1967 Sandy is unwatchable the last few years. He is frothing at the mouth. I unsubbed him quite a while ago, it's difficult to watch him at all. I see why Corey left.
It's great to have more than one tear down series. More inputs. :) I also find that Tesla is forcing all other auto manufacturers to change just by introducing new technologies in every new model or "refresh". (As well as all the over the air updates).
The air to the battery pack is for wade mode which is something you don’t discover in your tear down it’s something that has been discussed and talked about for months…
This is way better than Monroe who used to be this good but now has lost his way dramatically. Thank you for this wonderful presentation of an extraordinary development not turning in the Cow world in the Production world itself.
What an awesome presentation. I love that the stations were setup elegantly you walked the circuit in order. Nicely done and explained.

@@jeffcarroll3831how will legacy auto compete with the Chinese? Protectionism is the only way. It still amounts to government aid. No emotion is required in this assessment.
Legacy auto in the US is about making trucks and the profit margins on those will come down, already happening.
John always getting back from or on his way to a fishing trip!
NAILED MY EXACT THOUGHT/COMMENT!
Must be weird getting interviewed on your findings by a guy whos just ready to get out for his fishing trip, what a great vest, lol.
I’m the same way. It’s not only for heat retention, it’s the pockets, easy access to keys, phone, wallet etc.
Fantastic... It is the kind of video a Product Development Engineer would love to watch...!!
What a wonderful display. You can tell much thought went into this presentation. THANK YOU
Very very good presentation. I’m slowly starting to love your work, maybe more that that of a quite famous, and quite entertaining, competitor.
Wow! I'm impressed with the innovation.
It wouldn't look that much more complex than gms system, if you didn't completely disassemble every part and spread it out across the table. It honestly seems intentional. I'm looking at all the parts for the Tesla. And trying to imagine it assembled. Also, you're not showing the power steering pump, Which would no doubt make the gm system look more complex
Love these, John and Terry; terrific! Keep it going... Viewing from Vancouver Canada
The engineering behind the Cybertruck front/rear steer by wire is mind boggling. The average buyer simply won’t appreciate the design, engineering, validation and precision parts manufacturing that went into the CT.
It isnt mindblowing at all!Its just ok!
Infiniti Q5 has had steer by wire since 2014.
The reason I pulled the trigger on a Model Y in early 2020 was because I watched Munro tear it down. That said, I did plan on buying an EV and had just installed more solar + a Nema 14-50 receptacle in my garage. But, my original plan was a used Model 3 at the time.
@@brunoheggli2888 SWEETIE, YOU'RE TROLLING TESLA?
@@NomenClature-o8s IT'S GONE, IT WAS A SHORT LIVED TRIAL.
Clear and sensible presentation, even for a non- engineer. Kudos!
Tesla is on another level.
No it isnt!
@@brunoheggli2888 DID YA EVEN WATCH THE VIDEO BRUNO?
@@brunoheggli2888 Please provide some evidence of your assertion. Facts don't care about your feelings.
@@MICHGO1Did you? Do you understand what's missing from the video?
Do you understand that lots of scammers make youtube videos to make money off of the clicks of absolutely clueless people? Now go watch some crypto videos, and the "one trick to make a million dollars"...
It's amazing how advanced Tesla is in their engineering. You can see EV's are the future despite some current misgivings. ICE cars 70%+ inefficient, EV's 70%+ efficient. Soon to be better with new battery technology. I can't wait !
Yeah, you better get used to waiting....
Fun fact: Not all Cybertrucks cost $100k. Some are $69k.
Way cool! There are always pros and cons. Aluminum wiring has major reliability issues compared to cooper. Not always a good idea to have tanks (or battery cases) subject to external shocks. Glad that Tesla is paving the way.
I love to an amazing product. You're doing excellent work with this series, I really love it.
Wow great video. I love the comparisons
Terry is inspirational and thorough in his pursuit of excellence. A bit like Tesla Engineers!
Amazing presentation, thank you.
In both EV and ICE, it seems that power density matters more than energy density. You can always recharge the battery, be it from an alternator or the high-voltage pack of an EV. If you can increase power density for the same energy density, you could make the low-voltage battery smaller. But what battery technologies could help with that?
Yes, these are better as we get comparison shown to us.
Also, Munro is now inserting adverts for other businesses into its videos.
This Caresoft/Autoline presentation of what Caresoft can do is far superior.
Even though Caresoft is paying to be on Autoline, what we learn about products is not diminished.
Its a pity that Chinese companies are queuing up for learnings from Caresoft and other businesses, but US and European not so much.
Great info about vibration at low speeds in combustion engine vehicles.
Excellent storytelling as well as providing context to addressable problems/benefits that are relatable to a broad audience.
John this is absolutely fascinating. The applications for this steer by wire system are so broad reaching into the future.
Thanks for the deep insight and explanation ❤
I love that it was not all Tesla bro fanboy talk.
For example, how complex the Tesla glove box design with motor and plastic gearing.
And that fly by wire did NOT reduce weight and complexity, but rather increased capabilities. I also appreciate that as a pathfinder vehicle with some first iterations of technology, the CyberTruck was not fully optimized.
Terry is the best.
We don't see Sandy Munro on Autoline anymore. It's a shame really because while this was informative, I think Sandy's presentation is better.
Watch this and Munroe to get the whole story!
This guy is SOOOO much better than Sandy Munro. So glad to see these Cybertruck teardown videos, John!!!
John is trained as a media pro his whole life. Sandy is an engineer his whole life. Engineers aren't known for their communication abilities. They are both respect worthy old feckers.
@@fcv1967 Sandy is unwatchable the last few years. He is frothing at the mouth. I unsubbed him quite a while ago, it's difficult to watch him at all. I see why Corey left.
Awesome! I also like the pre ceramic 2-tone Rolex Submariner Terry is wearing. 👍
It's great to have more than one tear down series. More inputs. :)
I also find that Tesla is forcing all other auto manufacturers to change just by introducing new technologies in every new model or "refresh". (As well as all the over the air updates).
This video should be shown to every secondary student 😊
Love this video!
Can you please upload these full videos on X?
HEY keep it up! i love it, thrums up. this plus menro WOW
Wow, the gas car is like before the invention of electricity.
Its amaxing that when people buy a cybetruck the first thing people want to do is pull it apart to see how it works.like an alien spacecraft.
It’s literally his job and the car industry have been doing it with each other’s products for over a century.
Is there redundancy on the steering sensor on the Cybertruck? If not, it will be kind of scary sharing the road with these 3-4 ton tanks.
Yes.
Awesome video snd explanations! 👏👏👏👏😍😍😍😍
Far more informative than the Munro tear-down.
The air to the battery pack is for wade mode which is something you don’t discover in your tear down it’s something that has been discussed and talked about for months…
6:15 this is the most crucial part to the whole steering system, without this on slippery surfaces you would just spin out so easily
This is way better than Monroe who used to be this good but now has lost his way dramatically. Thank you for this wonderful presentation of an extraordinary development not turning in the Cow world in the Production world itself.
The student has become the teacher grass-hoppa.
Wrong!
Very informative. Thank you.
