- Tesla vehicle engineering vice-president to slide on the update
- Recent refreshing of model 3 and the model is likely to influence upgrades
- Could the Plaid + variant make a return to the S model?
Tesla can be credited with having directed the revolution of electric vehicles, which is undoubtedly booming, but it can also be criticized to rest on its laurels when it comes to introducing new products and refreshing the old.
The S model and the X model waited four years for an update, even the previous 2021 adjustments proving a disappointing. Instead, Musk’s company has counted on air updates (OTA) in order to add new software features to keep things interesting.
However, Lars Moravy, vice-president of vehicle engineering, recently revealed on the Podcast Ride The Lightning (via Electhek) that the X model and the model would be “a little love” later this year, this Who does not disclose complete information on what it could lead to.
We all know that Tesla works outside of automobile standards, avoiding the life cycles of inherited products which tend to see the refreshed models or updated two or three years after the launch, before the announcement of a replacement model A few years later.
To make things worse, this traditional life cycle has been accelerated in the battery and electric motors, this is the rate of technology, beach and battery performance.
Consequently, Tesla is not only faced with a much more rigid competition from its colleagues manufacturers, many of which now offer a full range of electrified passenger cars and even vans, but also the threat of lifting and update cycles More predictable, which helps to keep public relations and the production of marketing in full effect.
The recently refreshed model proves that change is very welcome with regard to the large -part Tesla range. If we are witnessing updates essential to the S model and the X model this year, here are the 5 things we would like to see.
1. Setting style from the Y model and the 3 model
Tesla treatment on the front and rear bumpers, as well as the full-width rear light bar, on the recently refreshed model, made a night difference and day in the appearance of the vehicle.
It is generally more elegant, more useful and, quite simply, cuts a more modern shape on today’s roads, which are now filled with exciting EV designs of Kia, Lucid, Rivian, Renault, Peugeot and many others .
Although the model still looks pretty good today, it would benefit from the refresh external style, while the X model, with its doors at Wing Faucon, could exploit the various innovations of mass production to adopt a approach Quite more avant-garde for design design.
Something that will follow the pace of automotive design trends that advance quickly that seem to remain in the foreseeable future.
2. Improvement of suspension and refinement
Often, the buttocks of jokes of the automotive industry, Tesla models have long been suffering from relatively bad quality control, agitated driving and a general lack of refinement for which Mercedes-Benz and BMW are famous.
Again, the Y model and the recently updated model 3 have brought enormous improvements with regard to the tranquility of the cabin, the body’s body control and the general manipulation dynamics thanks to the innovations of chassis and suspension made during the development of Cybertruck.
3. Better interior quality and more technology
The little things, such as ambient lighting and heated seats everywhere, helped to raise the interior quality of the model recently refreshed Y. Entertainment in motion.
This refreshment could also benefit from the abandonment of the Joug style steering wheel found in the S model and the X model, and replace it with something more traditional, complete with appropriate indicator stems, rather than bulky buttons.
As with all recent models of Tesla, the S model and the X model will greatly benefit from the latest equipment 4 (HW4), which allows vehicles to park effectively, be summoned remotely and offer advanced levels of Characteristic autonomous driving.
4. Together plaid models
The Plaid de Tesla Model is already holding a number of records of coveted tower, including one of the fastest production electric cars to shoot the infamous Nurburgring, but that did not prevent the bettors from wanting more.
The rumor mill has recently made overtime, with a word of a checkered variant + returning to the S model, which would see the acceleration and advanced speed speeds, as well as the improvements introduced to manipulation.
5. Faster loading and better range of batteries
Although Tesla improved the electric beach in the updated model, the figures were not exactly breathtaking. The official range noted from EPA has gone from 311 miles for the outgoing model at 320 miles.
In addition to that, Tesla has an 800 V electrical architecture in its armory, which means that it could offer versions of the S model and the X model with fast loading capacities, considerably reducing Tesla time, certainly brilliant network of Supercharing.
