So this is it an affordable electric car for the masses that can outperform your standard petrol car at the same price. For many decades this is just been a pipe dream because the technology was not yet good enough or cheap enough to make it a reality, there were also some other reasons but we're not going to go into that right now anyway at a frenzied event in California Tesla has just unveiled the end the Game Car the Tesla Model 3 which could be the very beginning of the mainstream electric car.
So what's all the fuss about is this car actually any good and what is the wider picture here for Tesla, first let's take a look at some aspects of the Model 3 to start off the Model 3 will be an incredibly safe car it has a 5-star safety rating for various reasons but one of the major ones is that versus a normal car there's an extremely large zone in at the front instead of a giant steel engine hurtling towards you in the event of an accident the Model 3 will do 0 to 60 miles an hour or about a hundred kilometers an hour in less than six seconds and that's the slowest model this versions that would be much faster than that.
You're going to get 215 miles or 346 kilometers per charge and old Tesla Model 3 will come with the supercharging a standard. Elon Musk the CEO of Tesla states that there 's now 3600 chargers worldwide but at the end of the year they'll be doubling the number of chargers as for practicality the car can comfortably fit 5 adults and has plenty of space for extra storage seeing as there's no engine under the Bonnet all Model 3 will come standard with auto pilot a self-driving feature that can steer break and even park or will drive to you when you're not in the car.
So what about that price??? The Tesla Model 3 is set to start at the 35000 US Dollars Tesla states that even with no extras you're not going to be able to find a better car at $35,000 alright just discussed a little bit about some of the features of the car but what about the wider picture ? what does this mean for Tesla ? well the Model 3 is the next step in the company's Evolution from a high-end luxury electric car maker to a manufacturer of an affordable product for mainstream car owners , the move is very bold and presents a major risk for Tesla to create a car that can sell so cheaply Tesla needed to make some big risky decisions the company is building a massive multibillion-dollar factory in Nevada that will mass produce batteries to help make them and the cars that they power cheaper.
Musk (CEO) said a Tesla couldn't make the Model 3 without the battery Factory, the company wants to channel out enough batteries at the facility to make half a million electric cars annually the aim of the gigafactory is to reduce the cost of batteries by 30% using various techniques such as large-scale manufacturing to leverage the economy of scale and Innovative supply chain for sourcing and new chemistry techniques. Asian giants like Panasonic have been investing heavily in increasing Supply so really the model 3 is a bit of a make-or-break moment for Tesla. If the aspects of the company has bed do indeed go the right way we could be seeing a massive shift in the Auto industry in the coming decade expectations are already high so high that 115000 cars have already been ordered in just 24 hours. But why exactly is this for some fun let's quantify this if you think about things a little deeper will quickly begin to see why so many people bought the car, the value equation otherwise known as consumer perceived value is the ratio of benefits to cost so quickly the benefits here are as follows never having to fill petrol again, Superior safety, handling and acceleration, intrinsically due to advantages of an electric design and also and arguably good looking car and the cost 35000 US Dollars and perhaps the inconvenience of charging but that's set to go away with the increase of super chargers.
i hope you guys liked it.
