The Tesla Model S electric sedan may have an impressive claimed range of over 400 km, but it appears that there are customers who still have doubts as to whether their cars are able to go the distance, and the company is aiming to dispel these fears.
In a recent tweet, CEO Elon Musk said that Tesla will announce a software update, which he claims will “end range anxiety,” at a press conference on Thursday. No details as to how the update will do that have been released so far, but Musk did say it will be pushed out to the entire Model S range.
This dovetails nicely with another tweet from Musk earlier in the year, saying that the 691 hp, all-wheel drive P85D model will go even faster via a forthcoming update – shaving 0.1 seconds off its 0-100 km/h sprint time to 3.1 seconds – thanks to a tweak to the inverter’s algorithm.
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
Too bad that most typical Malaysian only interested on cars like Honda or Germans which still lack of innovative to shape the cars industries like Tesla does.
From KL can”t even reach Alor Setar?
The Tesla electric cars are built for some specific purposes in mind and it requires a different set of infrastructure compared to the regular car. If you need to drive from KL to Alor Setar and can’t/won’t stop somewhere to recharge then I suggest you don’t buy a Tesla and buy something else instead :)
A car with a centre console display screen that big, I think it would be quite hard to keep small kids from playing/keep touching the display, thinking it is an ipad.
Small kids should sit in child seats and be unable to reach the touchscreen.
