Calling it deep dive is questionable, at best.

Tesla only released marketing fluff so far. No price, no payload capacity, no details of range (yeah, it did 500m drive, but how does it handle different speeds, environmental conditions, terrain profiles, etc), no details on the tech, etc.

It has potential to be really cool, but at the same Tesla isn’t exactly known for their marketing fluff being accurate in the real life.



Suggest you read the article. They do a pretty good job of estimating a lot of that and showing their work.


Yeah, exactly. Estimating, based on marketing fluff. Let’s wait for real numbers before we claim deep dive.


If you think Tesla's "marketing fluff" is factually wrong, you can make a killing with a lawsuit. Misleading investors is a huge thing. Fluff can lack details, but if it false then Tesla will be in a world of hurt.

BTW can you explain how the height of Pacheco Pass on I-5 is marketing fluff?


Bingo, if its a working real product. Why would then not released concrete numbers on the most important factors?

Its like building a house, and only listing colours that house can be painted with and that it comes with reasonable amount of doors and windows. Buy now!

Point me where they talk about price, payload and range outside of I5 in CA.

No rush, I’ll wait.
