Notes de l'éditeur
- In the first past of this EVU mini-course, we discussed some of the qualitative issues that must be considered before you pull the trigger on a Model S. We’ll continue that discussion by considering some of the ‘pace of change’ issues that we introduced in the earlier segment. For most folks, ICE cars are all they know, so there a comfort level that has to be overcome. >> there’s no doubt the EVs are different, but only a little different and only in a good way >> even if you like the rumble of a high performance gas engine, you might decide you like the silent, smooth, and awesome acceleration of an EV even better Once you’ve driven an EV for a while, you’ll realize they are the future. There’s no going back.
- Obsolecence is a fact of life in the automotive world. How many premium cars had proximity sensing systems 10 years ago. For that matter, how many had high intensity headlights 20 years ago? That doesn’t mean you didn’t buy a car when you needed or wanted one. You buy the tech that’s available now. >> But maybe batteries will get much better or hydrogen cars will dominate or any of a number of disruptive changes >> There’s always a chance that some of that might happen, but it won’t happen in the short term. >> You’re buying a Model S for use now
- >> Today, all cars have significant tech content >> and interaction with the Model S is no more complex than with any premium vehicle >> in fact, the Model S is easier to interact with than most >> if you can use a smartphone or a tablet, you can navigate the Model S tech with ease
- Among the many worries that are often voiced are: >> Such a big battery is dangerous Realistically, any power source is potentially dangerous, but >> not nearly as dangerous as a tank full of flammable gasoline. or >> The battery might fail, then what? >> The battery is warranted for 8 years, or >> Okay, but will it lose it’s charging capacity >> It will, but very slowly >> In fact, after 8 years, it should still hold about 80% of its original capacity
- >> But I keep reading that BMW or Porsche or Mercedes Benz or Audi will have Tesla Killers soon >>all of their BEV cars are in the concept phase >> they’re all 2 or 3 or more years out >> the companies simply don’t have the commitment to EVs that Tesla has I’m certain they’ll all be fine cars when and if the make the market, but the Model S is here now and it’s made significant dent in the premium marketplace. If nothing else, Tesla Motors has gotten the attention of the big players and that, in and of itself, is a compliment for the Model S.
