They got a few other vids too but this one is the most detailed

Yes as engineer I found it to be interesting video going over the whole car and also how many aspects such as the auto body were Design for Manufacturing red flags.

That said, don’t discount the Tesla which is spacious, almost as long-striding and is likely to be of interest to anyone whose main criteria for a new car is that it must have been invented by a twitchy-eyed prick so thin-skinned that he appears to have a total meltdown when someone points out that one of his lovely ideas was apparently little more than a hollow-hearted publicity stunt and publically denounces a man who has just tirelessly co-ordinated the successful and incredible rescue of 12 children as a “pedo”.

I'm tempted to say based on how terrible that apology is that he's still on the verge of further meltdowns. He still clearly thinks he's mostly in the right.

As to the coming Audi electric SUV, it won't be as fast in a drag race as the Tesla since a huge part of Tesla's marketing is based on how fast their vehicles accelerate, which isn't a useful thing to engineer most vehicles for. If the market demands an electric Audi that can go 0-60 faster than a Tesla however they'll get one, making electric cars fast is as simple as putting in a larger (and heavier) electric motor.

Getting your car to accelerate faster is easy as gently caress.
The trick is to get your car to accelerate that fast all the time without it reducing itself to scrap. Ludicrous+ is very hard on the motors, and the car weighing in at a hefty 5000 pounds means its going to be like the Nissan GT-Rs launch control. You get 3 or so hard launches and then your warranty is dead and your gearbox is halfway there too.

Also if you want to red light race people in a tesla better do it in near a supercharger.

lmao that article was so loving obsequious yeah this dude is as thin skinned as trump

btw im more hung up on musk attacking the thai commander because it was clear that musk has zero respect for anyone nonwhite or third world that doesnt pay him respect worthy of his station

stanton was a peer and gave him a bit of respect, but really only enough to keep him at busy and at bay. unsworth was a peer, and he betrayed musk's trust and made him melt the gently caress down
