He has done more for innovation in the last 3-4 years than all the big motor companies combined.
Tesla has come so far...
I'm so very proud to own one of these great machines.
Thanks Elon!
Elon Musk is like the Tony Stark of the real world. He has green cars that will help reduce global warming and he has a space company. Who else?
im here on feb 2018. tesla has come a long way
Feb 2020 here. Even longer way.
May 2020 even longer way
Tesla finally getting the credit he deserved with tesla motors. There's a reason Elon didn't name it Edison.
It's interesting watching this back, 10 years a later.. so much has changed...
That thing looks like a turret from Portal 2. And the subtitles at 7:01 killed me.
Lol
6:48, nobody seems to get how huge of a deal that is.
That disappointed “okay” by Elon is golden
And now there are almost 500 and the model 3 is about to Dominate the market
Chris Cicala 800 now yayyy!
more than 10,000 stations worldwide
sir u r a best enemy of oil lobby god bless u
Almost two years ago there were 6 chargers. Now there are 105 in the USA.
That is amazing. And I bet in additional 30 days there will be ~120 Chargers.
Clean cars with clean domestic power.
I do not have range anxiety I have restroom and Food anxiety. :D
this is so cool.
also look at europe. ppl are now doing roadtrips for over 1000 miles.
Can't wait for further chargers
Roughly eight months ago there were 105 chargers in the US. Now there are 189 in the US and 431 worldwide.
Three years later almost 400
And 4 years later there are 642 in North America with 575 in the USA alone, and 1379 world-wide as of today (that's a mind boggling 11295 stalls)! Tesla isn't stopping, they are building more every week!
Are these for years cars only or all electric cars?
*Tesla not years
Simply beautiful. I'm really looking forward to this and hope to see Tesla accomplishing their goals! Big thumbs up to them!
God bless you Elon, this is bigger than just a car. I'm going support this project. Wonderful wonderful wonderful!!!
go Tesla go! Sunday i got a testride here in Italy and i'm in love..!
now there are over 10,000 superchargers!!!!
now there are over 55,000 superchargers!!!!
This is the future of automobiles! Great job Elon Musk!
If you're doing vertical integration for the taxi service, you could do battery swaps, and the 45 minutes would be closer to 45 seconds. You could even do it during shifts tbh.
This is the reason I want a Tesla, the supercharger network
There will be 2+ stalls per station. They will calculate based upon population density of Model S/X/Gen III units sold in that area, increase the number in areas with greater population.
Cool to see how the prototypes are compared to modern superchargers
To be more precise, the person talking in the video is Elon Musk, the owner of Tesla Motor Company and designer of the car. He also is the owner of the other company he mentions in the video "Solar City" who is the company pairing with Tesla Motors to produce the chargers to be used by their customers to charge the cars.
Elon is my hero. 100% serious
By the way, what do you think is inside that white tower, the charging station? Obviously it has to store energy, since it delivers 120000 watts on demand even at night, far more than solar panels can produce. I say its big flywheels stored in vacuum, these can store that kind of energy very efficiently for days, and can be charged slowly and give off the energy rapidly. It could also be condensators or rechargeable batteries, but the speaker mentioned the system is low-cost.
I'm from France, and I can't wait to see these everywhere ! even if I'm wondering about the efficiency of such a system in a country where there's not as much as sun as in California.
How many ports at each station (and thus the max total Wattage draw at each station)? How much kW of solar at each station?
I'll suggest something, create a few spots at each shopping mall/complex, a little bit wider than the average car space to accommodate the chargers (hooked up to solar panels on the roof if its a multi-level car park.) hell the mall/complex owners could charge $1 to use the station if they wanted and it would still be cheaper than petrol.
Also would the connections be available to purchase to fit 1 in your home?
How much will it cost to replace the Batteries and how long do they last??
Question - Will these stations also offer a J1772 for other electric cars? Or will it be Tesla only?
tesla only in the us, but in EU it is for everyone
@Alijah Lettieri no it is correct
@Alijah Lettieri tesla superchargers in the eu literally have j1772 plugs that work on non teslas
@Alijah Lettieri omg sorry, I meant CCS not J1772
@@sahajpatel1553 You're wrong. It's CCS, but it's locked, and you can't charge unless it's a Tesla.
Does the obelisk thing do anything, or is it just a sign? Does Tesla sell the excess power to the local electric company, or does it just go straight into the grid?
It's only for those with the tesla plugg right?
Love the light show!!
Agreed. His stuttering is due to the fact he has so much knowledge and his vision is so huge that something as simple as public speaking is actually very difficult (you can tell he's trying to figure out which synonyms to use to describe what he's saying so others can understand). This is pretty common in people that are able to achieve huge tasks like run a company etc.
how long does that take?
Come to Switzerland!!! :D This is soo cool!
are there any plans to deploy something in germany?
how much will it be to charge the other cars OTHER than "S" Models?
There are already many more charging stations for the other electric cars, but they charge slower. Teslas can also use the much slower industry standard charging station. Supercharger stations allow Tesla owners to have access to their proprietary high speed 30 minute charging.
I think it's the joy in the eye at the elegance of the solution I love the most....♥ Tis good to watch this again...
Does anybody ask themselves how many vehicles a day these solar panel stations can handle? How long will the lines be before you get your turn at having your vehicle charged? Having a station three hours away only having to wait for everyone else to charge their cars, doesn't sound very convenient.
... Alot of gas stations don't even take six at a time, solar panels can be put on the roofs of existing gas stations (no, they don't need fields anymore for anything below a MW) and it's an emerging tech. It's a massive leap forward from what we have now and it can (and will) always improve: just give it time.
Very exciting! Now if I could just afford one of their cars :D
Tesla was a genius. This company reflects his creativity and innovation through its inventions. Tesla motors would be able to be a monopoly for the electric car industry in seriousness
And where did you get that from?
brilliance of the mind is a rare thin in this world. appreciate it when it comes along and touches everyone's life. Anyone can be coached to speak well, but sincerity comes from the heart. it cannot be faked.
ça me fait plaisir que tu sois content de ton séjours ^^ reviens plus souvent ^^
I think it can be used in a long term way but your right until more charging stations pop up specifically superchargers across the country it will likely not be as wide spread. I myself live in Michigan and there as far as I know are no super chargers anywhere near me so if i had a Model S i would be forced to use the Public Level 2 chargers when going cross country.
is model s available in france or in Asia?
And how many ordinary mains sockets are there in the same area? I think you have missed the point!
Really guys, no plans for covering Maine? There wasn't even one bit of my state on the "Nationwide" plan. I'd LOVE to go electric, but it seems like it takes ages for great technology to make it up here. Canada gets this kind of stuff before we do and we're only 3 hours away.
Actually, solar panels have an expiry date so if you divide the energy used to manufacture it by its lifetime, you are still using petroleum, embodied in the production of solar panels and in the transportation of it from the place of production to the station.
You had me at sun light
Our Planet needs.. more people.. like him... !!
He is a Amazing man.. !!!
got chills watching this. the future is literally now. Hard to believe.
Actually, for the signature series its 8 years/unlimited mileage.
Thanks for the video. But, please, could you deinterlace them before uploading ? :-).
All I can think of is the lineups we already get at gas stations, but instead of it taking a few minutes for someone to leave, it takes half an hour.
Wow... Seeing this for the first time. Tesla has come a long way. What would the next 10 years bring?
6:16
WOOOOOOOOOH
Palm springs Ca. There will be charging stations at eleven green hotels that start going totally on sub grid and generate renewable energy and make higher profitability and guests now can choose to take smart cars zero omissions and leave the car they arrived in parked securely. In a covered car port. Out of the Sun.
A great presentation - undoubtedly the future of transportation right there. For me though, there was a little something missing from proceedings. Specifically, I believe that Elon Musk should have gone into a dramatic magician-style dance routine at 1:52, just as the music kicks in. Look up "The Day Today Newsdancer" for a perfect example.
Oh well, perhaps next time...
Thank you Tesla! i'm from New Jersey and i will be Abel to afford a certified pre owned Tesla in two years, this is great and there will be plenty of charging stations by then in my area. this is good!!!
great man with visionary...please bring Tesla to Asia my man.. especially Malaysia
You should check out Tesla Motors's "Fast Pack Swap Event" video. They do exactly what you're talking about.
another thing thats pretty amazing is the concept of wireless charging...currently its not very efficient and its pretty slow but as it develops and becomes like superfast and it gets combined with this...its a pretty fascinating view of the future. instead of pulling into a gas station and doing what u do today...in the future u would pull into a charging station, not hav to get out the car and drive off fully charged for free in sunlight in 30 seconds or less. damn.
It's a very nice and hopeful vision.
However, what happens in the winter with those who travel in snow.
Say, you get caught in a storm.. How much energy can these(sorry for the lose term) storage bins hold? Also, how well can the solar panels absorb light during a period of consecutive cloudy days?
I ask these things, because this is what I've been waiting for. Hopefully there are logical answers to these questions.
je viens de voir ton nom "Strasbourgeois"! j'ai passé 3 mois à Strasbourg et j'ai adoré! (je suis Québécois) vive l'Alsace!
1. Is the supercharger station compatible with what Toyota and Honda offers now? If not, why not?
2. Battery decay?
3. All supercharger stations will be provided solely by the Tesla company, what if someday they suddenly decided to charge you again?
4. The supercharger stations are putting electricity back into the grid now with few model Ss, but what if there're hundreds of thousands of people driving? Will the solar power be enough? Will they eventually need to pull electricity from grid?
@MerliSYD I hate to admit it, but you are right. But his other attributes make up for that!
So you think it takes no money or energy to construct cars and solar panels?
What's the giant white statue? What purpose does it serve?
A lot of reasons, not the least of which is distribution. I'm as blown away as you are though.
AWESOME. but what about the places with no sunlight :/
so In Two years when this supercharger open around places like Chicago and New York where the sun isn't out as much as it is in Cali. How are the solar panels going to put more power back in the grid then the cars use? Just a thought.
or at least have a small solar area to charge a second battery that runs the electronics (lights radios ac heat cellphone chargers etc) so that what it says on the spec list is a true estimate and not a you can get 300mils but.... you need to not have ac radio or heat.
So it charges from 0 to 100% in 30 min? That takes some time.
At night it takes power from the grid, the point is, it produces more than it uses up.
How does this affect the batteries life? It doesn't seem like it would be good for longevity and balance of the battery pack.
Each battery is a 3.7V lithium ion battery; to do say 100kW charging, you'd need 27,000A per battery. And thousands of 27,000A power supplies are not cheap, not to mention wiring etc. Charging in series makes complete sense.
This guys approach is inspired. Right back to first principles - electric generation, geographical coverage, and cost. No doubt it will eventually entail a fee, as much for the installation of the Superchargers, but this guy is thinks in a language called 'revolution'. At one point in history, there were only half a dozen gas stations. Today, there are only half a dozen supercharger stations. Now watch history unfold before your eyes. A great day for humanity!
My dad always used to tell me that the CEO has to be the best salesman in the company. Clearly though, someone else could deliver a better sales pitch. However, Elon is a great CEO for a different reason. I accept his message, not because he has a silver tongue, but because I trust and respect the man. Elon has the vision, foresightedness, and brilliance to not just do good business, but to change the world. Elon is a revolutionary figure and I will always want to hear him speak.
my cousin just opened a alternative energy company! Great car and he told me his inspiration was from this guy Elon musk. He is a true inspiration to all :)
what is the music?
wow where do i get one!!...
How about a power saving mode to eliminate or minimize phantom drain?🤔
The power drain is due to the battery cooling and heating system. Without this, the battery will degrade super quickly
How do they pay for the construction of the charge sites ...
Props for Tesla for this idea and nice video, but also to Elon for giving a very human touch to the presentation. The audience doesn't cheer Iphone style, but you can sense they are also a tad more realistic. Thanks Tesla! You are awesome. Wish you came to Europe a bit quicker though ;)
Great work Elon. I'm guessing that's one big capacitor storing sunshine. Simple and elegant as nature itself.
I'm waiting for Tesla Model: Death Ray!
6:20 they will have Super chargers in Europe and Asia so can travel where ever you want.. i didnt know when can drive a car to Europe
That's well and all for sunny California, but what about places where the sun don't shine?
So the car has thousands of individual lap-top batteries. How fast can you supercharge one such battery? I would think its less than 30 minutes.
So if they can make the charger target all batteries individually, I think they can cut the charge time in half or less.
This is just for long journeys. It take about half an hour (a rest stop) to fuel the car back up. At home, it takes about eight hours (while you sleep).
we don't have much tolls here in sc
I want a model S!!
What about people that live in New York City in an apartments? When will the Super Charges be available in NYC?
Man this presentation is exactly how it should be done....and Elon seems much more secure (no stuttering at all) I mean...think about it...FREE TRAVEL!!! It's insane!! GO TESLA!!!
In consistent overcast conditions, properly orientated solar panels can produce substantial amounts of energy.
That is a good question, I don't think so, it would defeate the porpuse, the model S can charge really quickly because of the tech in it, other electrics wont be able to do the same so :/ but still they could put some plugs for other electrics
I guess the price of the cars would cover that. Albeit they are pretty damn expensive right now. But even if in the future they started to charge a little bit per 'fill up', it could never get totally out of control like it is with oil right now.
where can I get some stock?
