5 things coming up from Tesla 2018 - Tesla Crunch

How was the year 2017 for Tesla !

The year of 2017 was quite full of with events. While 2017 was clearly a smooth sail for Elon Musk run Tesla.

• The highlight of 2017 for Tesla is the introduction of the Semi all electric truck & The Roadster.
• Tesla semi has already been making headlines for its long range and also performance stats.on the base of  Semi's platform, an electric pick-up truck  was also announced.

That is expected to debut right after the Model Y is launched.

• The all new Tesla Roadster 2 was launched in a new-gen form. where it not only change the look but also promised to be the fastest production car in the world.

But,Now Here is what all we can expect from Tesla and Elon Musk in 2018.

# Model 3.

• Tesla unveiled the amazing car Model 3 this year. And the model is expected to start production this year.
• This might not be a constraint anymore as and when Tesla goes full swing in production of Model 3.
•  The first lot of Model 3 will be offered with the long range battery along with premium interiors.Tesla will release more verients of model 3.

The base model price of model 3 is 35k $ or 23 lacs rupees.It seems costly for a sedan but it's Tesla & worth it.

Tesla' goal is to sell 5k units of the Model 3 per week and then further increase it to 10k units per week at the end of 2018.It's very impressive strategy.

# Model Y

• The Model Y is believed to be an electric crossover that will sit on the same basics of  Model 3.
• However, Musk clarify by mentioning that the Model Y will be based on an all-new platform.
• The only little information that was released by Musk about the Model Y was that the feature of 'Falcon Wing' doors like the Model X will added to model Y. The 
• Tesla Model Y is expected to start production in 2018. And the launch can happen almost between 2019-20.

# Model S and Model X.

• The Model S and the Model X are the two most popular models from Tesla. 
• In fact, the Model X has also arrived in India (check it who is that person) !, not officially but as a private import.

This will be introduced in a phase manner in all the Tesla offerings.

•  We expect the Tesla Model S and X to get a new significant updates in it's autopilot system that will improve its comfort & range.

# What is the further planning of Tesla ?

• Tesla has already installed over 8,000 Superchargers in the world & the goal is  18,000 by the end 2018.
• It sounds difficult but The Man behind the Tesla is Elon musk & you already know that nothing is impossible for him !
• But now we can only hope that Tesla will successfully completes the target.
• Since there are not too many other automobile manufacturers like (Thor Truck) who have an all-electric car portfolio!
• Tesla still has rule over them,It is king.but at least for the new few years when there will be multiple offerings to rival Tesla.

The new range of Tesla cars are must have larger capacity batteries with equally longer ranges at low cost.

5 description of Thor Truck ,Compete to Tesla - Tesla Crunch

Thor Truck 5 description you should know.

A startup with Los Angeles, said they wanted to bring an electric truck to the market,
They even want to offer a service in the form of converting existing trucks to use electricity instead of fossil fuels.
                   Can it beat Tesla ?
by-Nihar Raval

# Basics 

Last week, Thor Trucks released the first official photos of their Transformers-inspired truck, and we have to admit, even here at Engineering Things !

• The look of the truck is really cool! Thor Trucks uses the ET-One chassis from Navistar, 
• A Dana axle and
• An electric motor from TM4, 
• The Hydro-Quebec subsidiary, on its prototype electric truck ET-One.

From a Side

# Competitor of Tesla Semi ?

If we talk about to completion between This trucks and the Tesla semi, it's difficult to guess from now.
The Semi trucks is already taken it's place,
But Thor Trucks are become a topic of discussion.In other hand thor Trucks are far behind the Tesla semi in technology.

So,what are the thoughts of company for taking market ?

Thor trucks is the most focused on battery development and its integration into existing trucks,
so as to be able to convert fossil fuel-fueled trucks into the use of electricity with the help of these technologies.

On the road !

I'm sure they will find interesting their efforts to convert existing electric trucks, But it's hard to imagine that their prototype ET-One will be able to compete with Tesla Semi.
Their truck has several times less race at the same price, even though it can carry the same weight.
And especially when their 480-kilometer version is a few tens of thousands more expensive than the top-of-the-line Tesla Semi with up to 800 km.
The company now has a working prototype of its ET-One, and offered to prospective buyers, and expects to be able to produce the truck in 2019.
 However, there's no indication what the time to ramp up production might be for this 18-person company if some of the big fleet customers place initial orders to trial the trucks, as they have with Tesla.

In parking lot

# The Price.

At this point, however, the company focuses primarily on their prototype. 

ET-One should come to market rather than  The Truck is so powerful be able to carry a 36 ton load.

Price should start at 148,000 $. it's most expensive version should be worth 249,000 $.

This can be improved for taking the place of Tesla semi truck,they should not be so expensive, because the as this same price Tesla semi has more upgraded technology and the main thing is a trust.

So,if Thor want to become the boss they must have to reduce their prices,and should improve their automatic systems.

# Power of this truck.

The plan is to release many versions, which should be differentiated not only by the design & size of the battery,
They also have to work on the increasing the capacity of batteries & reducing the weight of batteries.
But also by performance & also good for company. ET-One will produce the power of 300 to 700 horsepower.
I think the war of taking market has been started.

Basics let's talk.

What seemed like a frivolous idea just a short while ago is looking more and more like a very viable future for transportation fleets, and although Tesla, as always, gets the most coverage for Tesla semi truck,there are a number of other companies building their own electric cargo haulers. 

Among the latest to surface in the news is the startup Thor Motors, which just announced its own offering, the ET-One, said to be available as soon as 2019.

The Class 8 ET-One is claimed to have a hauling capacity of 80,000 pounds and a range of about 300 miles per charge, with a 90-minute charge time.

According to Bloomberg one of the founders of Thor Trucks, Dakota Semler, managed the fleet of trucks at his family's vineyard, first converting them to run on waste vegetable oil, and then turning his sights to the electrification of semis. Instead of building an entire vehicle from the ground up,

 Thor Trucks focuses on what it believes it can do best, which is to optimize its battery packs and electric drivetrain, as well as work on the software that helps to make the most of the capacity.

The price is expected to be about $150,000, which is significantly cheaper than the presumed $180,000 Tesla Semi, but they're also two completely different animals, so to speak. 

It intends to deliver a 70% savings in fuel costs per mile, as well as 60% lower maintenance costs, with the intended market being short-haul and regional fleets. Even aside from the differing specs on the two models, the companies themselves are virtual opposites.

 Whereas Tesla has not only its vehicle production facilities up and running, as well as its own battery production pipeline in place, Thor Trucks is operating out of an LA-area warehouse, where it currently takes existing truck platforms and retrofits an electric drivetrain and battery pack into them according to the needs and specifications of customers.

About Tesla Semi Truck,Facilities, price, First customer - Tesla Crunch !

Tesla semi truck.

by- Nihar Raval

Tesla semi truck is the fully electric power truck but have the enough power to compete typical Diesel trucks.

The Tesla Semi has enough power to go up-to 100 km/h within 5 seconds,which is like a typical sports cars. 
This timing with its max payload of 36,000 kg stands at 20 seconds. 
The Semi truck can even climb up a 5 % gradient at 105 km/h, something a diesel-powered competitor will accomplish at no more than 72 km/h. 

Tesla Semi Truck 

# facilities 

* MWh battery
*It's range is about 800 km.
*Acceleration from 0 to 100 km / h with a fully loaded  in 20 seconds.
*Armored glass for superior driver protection & Assist autopilot
Built-in all the necessary systems
* Tesla semi has large monitors in the driver's cab.
* And a futuristic automatic driving mode.
* Central cab driver seat for thier safety.
This feature are the most most unique from Another electric Trucks. depending on this features Tesla can won the truck markets easily.
You can imagine about a truck with autonomous technology,How awesome thing is that.
On the base of this features Tesla should won the hearts of A "typical diesel truck drivers"and can convince them to buy their semi truck for save environment and their Mony too.

#Who is the First customer of Tesla semi.

From the Launch date the demand for Tesla semi truck is increasing, More  companies are becoming more and more interested in this electric truck.
Beacause it is very cheap in running cost and it is available at very affordable price. first company to order several electric trucks from Tesla is the American Walmart supermarket network .

 The first customer to use Tesla Semi on the road is Tesla itself.
 Jerome Guillen, Vice President at Tesla Inc., confirmed that Tesla will be the first customer to use its electric truck to transport cargo between its Fremont and Californian factories in Nevada.
Tesla Semi. Earlier on the stage, he welcomed Elone Musk, who quickly passed through all aspects and parameters of the Tesla Semi trucks and quickly surprised the evening, revealing  Tesla roadster, a madly fast convertible with an acceleration from 0 to 100 km / h in 1.9 seconds and 100 km range.

# First large scale order.

 Semi truck get the first large scale order from Budweiser. It will be carrying Budweiser beer
Anheuser-Busch has decided to order 40 units for the start.
Electric trucks also help to reduce their carbon footprint by 30% by 2025.
Taking into account the size of their distribution network, they will reduce the annual emissions equivalent of 500,000 passenger cars with incineration engines.
Which is a very big thing to defend the day-by-day spoiled environment.
which is very big step for environment.

#price of the electric truck.

Tesla said during the presentation that for the operation of their electric truck Tesla Semi,
 companies will have to spend an average of 0.77 dollar per kilometre.
At these operating costs, we expected the prices of trucks to be around $247457.77 
This is little bit costlier than the typical diesel trucks, but after use of several years it can becomes cheaper than old one, because the running cost of the Tesla is very low.

Let's talk about batteries..

The other losses are listed for both an interstate driving cycle and an urban cycle. Note from figure 2 that braking losses are fairly minimal for the interstate driving cycle but are a big loss in an urban cycle where we have lots of starting and stopping.At current MPG of around 6.5 MPG this super truck program demonstrated around 10 MPG (1.5 times better mileage).

Cummins published a breakdown of all the losses in a semi truck: engine, aerodynamic, rolling, drive train, aux loads and braking

In other words, at 100 BTU of input energy to the diesel engine, 58 BTU’s is rejected in waste heat.Aerodynamic losses have the reverse effect. Aero losses are minimal in an urban cycle but a big contributor in an interstate cycle where we run higher speeds.

3 Things About New Tesla roadster - Tesla Crunch

  ABOUT TESLA ROADSTER

  Written by : Nihar Raval

                               Tesla Roadster

 

Here is what we know about the prototype ,

unveiled along with the semi truck ; it's 

a four seater convertible that advertised

as $200 thousands and promised for 2019 or

2020.Tesla roadster become the 3rd fastest vehicle on the earth.
 Hears very interesting, Right ?? 
Check the planning of Tesla for 2018.

Range of a Tesla roadster.

The declared range is about 620 miles , which are approximately 100 kilometers.
Not bad,But driven hard i'd been amazed if   anyone got 150. That $29000 80kwh upgrade is allegedly good for 340. 
It's very good afford from the company & now they are working on the batteries for reducing their weight and increasing their capacity. 
We will hope that this technology can prevent us from using of fossil fuels.

Did you cheked Tesla semi Truck ?

           

Performance

performance mode will do 0-60 in 3.7seconds.standard mode is also good for 3.9 This was supercar territory back in the day,But a new mode s will beat it.Top speed is limited to 125mph beacause it is electronically oprated. 

What does Elon musk think about tesla ? 

He loves it,mean he loves it so much.Infact he want to releas roadstar 2 after tesla semitruck & model y.  

After a successful launch of roadster Elon musk want to send it on Mars from falcon heavy Rocket.
And than Tesla will become the first company & Roadster will become the first car of Mars.
This is such a ridiculous thing that A man made car will reach before man !!

                                                     

This car, available in 2020, will be the fastest production car ever made — and that’s just the base model. Musk explained the idea behind making a car like this is: “The point of all this is just to give a hardcore smackdown to gasoline cars.”

Driving a gas sports car will be like driving “a steam engine with a side of quiche,” Elon added.

The Tesla CEO has long said he doesn’t want to make the best electric cars around, but the best cars, period. Introducing this new wonder-beast, he took on a bolder tone. 

“The point of this is to give the hardcore smackdown to gasoline cars.” He also said it’ll make driving a gas car feel like piloting a steam engine with a side of quiche.

When you make cars this outrageous, you get to make up your own metaphors, apparently.

The original Roadster was Tesla’s first car, the proof of concept it built from 2008 to 2012. 

It was the young automaker’s way of showing that electric cars could be cool, not just overgrown golf carts. People had long asked Musk when he would revive the model to go with his sedans and SUVs, he says. Now he’s making it happen—come 2020.

He then revealed the Roadster isn't a two-seater as you would expect - and as the pictures would suggest - but a 2+2. Musk conceded that you cant won't be able to fit tall people in the back, but he said the rear seats are useful. The new sports car is also said to have ample storage space, meaning it's not just fast and fun, but also useful.

Well, not yet, but at least we know what to expect from the Roadster when it starts production in 2020. The company's plans for the next two or three years seem pretty well laid-out with the Semi coming in 2019, though Musk should squeeze the Model Y somewhere in between as well. Whatever the case, the company's stock should go through the roof in the coming days because saying both these products look promising is a gross euphemism.

Unlike the Semi, Musk did reveal one actual figure about the new Roadster. He told the audience it had 10,000 Nm. of torque (7,375 lb-ft), which, as he himself acknowledged, was "stupid." 

That will come from three motors - one on the front axle and two on each of the rear wheels.

A customary word of caution: Tesla has a history of over-promising and delivering late, 

if ever. Musk is struggling just to produce enough (now quaint-seeming) Model 3. 

The car that should appeal to the masses and make Tesla more than a niche automaker—and finally make it profitable. 

A sports car won’t fix its problems—but it might make one hell of a getaway car

The Roadster should also make drag racing quite boring and repetitive. Knowing all too well that the quarter-mile time is just as important as a Nurburgring lap time, the Tesla CEO revealed the Roadster would clear the distance in 8.9 seconds, making it the first 8-second production car.

At this point, the presentation felt like a rock concert with lots of wooing, clapping, and whistling. 

But probably the best part was yet to come. Musk revealed the sports car (only by looks because otherwise, it's fully worthy of the "hypercar" description) would use a 200 kWh battery pack good for 620 miles of range (1,000 km) at highway speeds.

 That had an even greater reaction from the crowd than the 0-60 mph acceleration.

At one point during the presentation, somebody in the audience yelled "Elon for president!" to which Musk smiled and replied, "Huh, miserable job." Of course you would rather continue making crazy-fast electric cars and space rockets, right?

Musk was obviously feeling quite confident tonight, and for a good reason.

 He put on one of his better performances and delivered a very punchy line that sets Tesla apart from the rest of the car manufacturers (if there was any need for that). 

Talking about the Roadster's performance, he said: "the point of all this is just to give a hardcore smackdown to gasoline cars." Point achieved.
