I see that most people who do not understand exponential technology consistently give distant timeframes for its deployment.

According to my understanding of the NHTSA definitions, there is no difference in the software/hardware capability between Levels 4 and 5. Therefore, Level 4 and 5 would operate the same way. Since Tesla does not currently offer cars without steering wheels, brake pedals, nor accelerators, the...

Please go to the NVIDIA YouTube web site and view the presentations they have there regarding the DRIVE PX 2 computer platform that Tesla is now using in all of its cars.

According to the NTHSA, this was not a demonstration of Level 5, but of Level 4. Level 5 cars have no steering wheels, brake pedals, nor accelerators. I urge people to go to the NVIDIA YouTube website, and view their presentations of what the NVIDIA DRIVE PX 2 platform computer can achieve in...

I took a friend with me to see the store the other day. A young lady told us about the Model S and X, and told us about the status of the building. Apparently, the 3rd floor and roof still belong to Bentley Motors Ltd until they can find space to store their equipment. So, no service until...

I plan to attend the opening tonight, and I will post any information they tell us about SuperChargers.

Electrek reports today that a Wall Street Journal article reports that the head administrator of NHTSA said it is important to allow Tesla and other manufacturers to make progress toward autonomous cars. Sorry that I do not know how to include a link to the article on Electrek.

The book, "Clean Disruption of Energy and Transportation," by Tony Seba does an excellent job of explaining why solar and wind will disrupt oil, natural gas, coal, and nuclear as sources for energy. It also shows how this will make electric utilities and conventional ICE cars obsolete by 2030...

As a senior citizen and resident of a retirement community, I need to transport people that have trouble stepping up to get into SUVs. When a Model X is equipped with air suspension set to its lowest height, what is the step-in height for the second row?

Motor Trend First Test of 2015 Tesla Model P85D Motor Trend Magazine just posted its test of the 2015 Tesla Model P85D. 2015 Tesla Model S P85D First Test - Motor Trend Needless to say, they were impressed.

I thought the 155 mph speed limit for the S85D was an error, since the total power for the Model S85D does not change from the S85. The only other way I can think the speed limit was increased is due to a higher gear ratio. Perhaps some one can explain the physics involved in this situation...

I believe that the 155 mph speed quoted for the S85D is a typo. I emailed Tesla about this, but I have not received a reply.

I had a 1972 Mercedes and had a similar accident. I was backing out of a space in a parking garage, and I saw a car approaching. I thought I put my foot on the brake pedal, but instead I put it on the accelerator. Not too much damage to either car, but I certainly felt stupid!

Yesterday, December 16, Zacks Research published an article that I read on the Yahoo finance site about the Model E that said that the Model S did not begin delivering cars to customers until the first quarter of 2013. I left a comment on this article that said that customers began receiving...
