"People who contract the novel coronavirus emit high amounts of virus very early on in their infection, according to a new study from Germany that helps to explain the rapid and ef…

The solution as it relates to poor air quality from the toxic gases emitted from internal combustion engine vehicles in densely populated urban areas. Better? Mass transit will hel…

I've heard of market saturation, but market share bubble? Bloomberg is not making a simple point. The article is titled as if there is, without a doubt, a bubble. When a bubble pop…

"Electric-Car Bubble"... "EV sales make up just 4 percent of overall passenger vehicle sales of 23.7 million units, according to the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers."…

Based on what?

Everything is easier on a large display: navigation, browsing through music/podcasts, changing settings. Speed and range are really the only "gauges" you need and take up very litt…

Would be nice for them, probably not gonna happen.

However you feel about it, the bigger point is that none of big auto could do this even if they wanted to

The middle class can buy Model 3s and get the tax credit as well. And the top 25% paid 85.97% of total income tax in 2016. So I think you have it backwards.

Seems like anything else is just a roundabout way with additional layers of beaurocracy of doing universal basic income.

That's exactly my point. Seat belts are required by law. Obeying the speed limit is required by law. But users are not forced to obey these laws by restrictions placed on the vehic…

What precedence? If "it's up to the user" is not sufficient, then all vehicles should be speed capped at the legal speed limit and prohibited from moving if seat belts are not on. …

The entire video is Autopilot in city driving. Autopilot, at this time, is only for "driving on dry, straight roads, such as highways and freeways. It should not be used on city st…

Terrible analogy given that Tesla has created literally the best automobiles ever, and Theranos created nothing.

I wonder how many people see this headline but don't realize this happened over year ago when they also saw a similar headline for the same accident. Combine that with constant hea…

Well yes, of course those are valued highest. What's the point of auto lane changing if you can't ACC and lane keep?

Such as Navigate on Autopilot(freeway interchanges and exits), speed based lane changing, merging, object detection. There are 8 cameras, 12 ultrasonic sensors, and a radar. They a…

Openpilot is not on par with Autopilot. There's a long list of things Autopilot can do that Openpilot will never be able to do with existing hardware.

But no one else is mass producing EV's. VW is just starting to talk about building a gigafactory. Everyone is doing a lot of talking, but they are all years behind Tesla. And even …

This is just another negative Tesla article from the nytimes. Nothing new, and in the long run it doesn't matter. Elon and Tesla are changing the world for the better. Tesla is gro…

Uh, yeah, ok.

BO, lol.

Not much different? A car is about 10x the width of the scooter. And bike lanes in the city are wide enough to allow passing within the bike lane if the slower traffic stays on one…

I'm all for having more scooters parked on sidewalks and less Uber/Lyft vehicles blocking bike Lanes and adding to downtown traffic. The scooters are much needed, obviously. But, a…

"This remains a categorical advantage over BEVs, which even under fast-charging conditions typically require several hours to fully recharge." -That's BS. Should say 30 min. to 1 h…
