There are only two companies in the world that can generate this much hype around a launch event... Apple & Tesla
Agreed 100% haha. I would honestly say, owning a Tesla is one of my only materialistic dream purchases that I would ever want. Nothing else. The car, the mission, the makers mean a lot to me and they inspire me to press on. My goal is to get one by the age of 25, but I'm hoping sooner, fingers crossed! Who knows, maybe if my projects like the gag site that is being featured on here today takes off, I will be able to accomplish this dream in months time ;) hahaha Work work work work!
Exactly. Design and the perfection.
so true
Except that.... Apple isn't generating any hype anymore. I mean, come on. iPhone SE?
I mean I hear that, I do. On the other hand, everybody gave them a hard time about the iPhone 5c but that thing outsold the 5s. I definitely agree though that they do not have the same panache of old.
This is my favorite GIF of the night
awesome gif! Been starting at it for 5 minutes!
SPECS: Autopilot Hardware incl. Supercharging 0-60 in under 6 seconds 215mil/ 338km+ range Sits 5 adults Deliveries in 2017 $35,000USD +130k pre-orders in 24 hours
"only" $35,000? That's surprisingly cheap for a Tesla or am I missing something here?
You should watch the announcement. Tesla explains why.
you should see the presentation; the base model includes this (base version). Additional features & options are extra (additional range, wheels, sport version, etc.)
"Autopilot hardware" is included, not all of Autopilot. Yes, the safety features are enabled for free but we'll probably have to pay $3K for the full self-driving and self-parking experience. I've ordered mine!
thanks Philippe, made a correction. Same here, ordered 2x.
I'll have the space grey one please
Not sure how i feel about the front. Seems like something is missing where the grille use to be.
Understandable, I mean..it *is* missing something.
Was also my first impression. But the numberplate is missing, too. Might look better with it ;-)
I think it's a good thing. It should look different than reflexes somehow
I mean... there doesn't need to be a grill. I think we're just used to seeing the grill and naturally, we're just like, "What?" But I think with time (and more electric cars on the road), we'll start thinking a grill is weird :P.
Precisely. I find this quite unsettling. Sure, it doesn't *need* a grille, but both the S and X gave the impression of a grille. However, accordingly to Jalopnik, the design issue is the trunk:
The #TeslaModel3 is the nicest $35,000 car you will see.
indeed it is
does it price with tax?
Love the new car, though a few interior shots would have been nice. Here are best moments from the unveiling video: Model 3 Website: First Look:
Amazing 150K ordered before seeing it. Apple has lost the lust that Tesla has. Apple should buy Tesla
just imagine if Tesla had a talented presenter unveiling the product. Elon is pretty awkward up there..
Adds to his charm though :)
Elon isn't as charismatic as Steve Jobs but I still trust him all the same. You can tell he believes 100% in the companies he's building and there's no one else I'd rather see presenting for Tesla.
I'm actually a huge fan of the owner coming out and presenting it himself. Humanizes the company.
I think the number was 115K, but very impressive nevertheless! It shows that the world is ready for electric cars (and trusts Tesla to deliver), which is huge.
I love Tesla and have huge respect for Elon. But the presentation style and audience reaction is very hard to watch. And why does Tesla force the Preorder-Form on the website visitors instead of showing the event-video? ...Exactly... Well I guess Europeans who didn't get up at 5 in the morning to watch live, have to watch the recording of a periscope stream on YouTube.. Anyway! The Model3 is a better looking car than I expected with the excepotion of the nonexistent Dashboard.
You can watch the full presentation here, not from a Periscope steam.
Finally - Thanks.
Put the $1,000 down the second the cars came rolling out. Needless to say.. I love it
Ya, I want this car pretty bad too. Too bad 18 months is sooooo frickin long away.
