Getting the chance to jump into a blank-sheet design might sound like heaven to some creatives (and hell to others, to be fair) but Jenkins thought that brainstorming Lucid's theoretical foundation actually made his job a little eas
The Mazda MX-5 Miata has consistently been one of the best driving and most popular sports cars to ever hit production. It's small, light weight, perfect 50/50 weight distribution and high level of feedback make it an absolute dream to drive. For those who want a bit more out of their Miata, the aftermarket industry follows their popularity. With anything from various suspension upgrades to turbo LS engine swaps , the sky is the limit for the little roadster. One company, however, has decided to do something different and turn the popular sports car into the perfect driver's
As daunting as the job might sound, now consider that the modern automotive industry as a whole finds itself upended by the rising tide of electrification—notably spearheaded by Elon Musk and his growing crop of Tesla E
To my eye, even before I’d done my prep and discovered that Jenkins worked on the second-gen A8, I thought the Air’s side panels resembled that sedan’s smooth yet substantial aesthetic—and that the rear canopy strongly hearkened back to Freeman Thomas’ first-gen Audi TT concept, too. Jenkins agreed, saying that, "The surfacing is just very simple but underneath it is still muscle and stance. I think those are the things that make a car look really good. Modern car design has gotten really complicated, unnecessarily, a lot of styling and a lot of lines, holes, scoops, and ven
To "soft reboot" a Model 3, the driver must press both scroll wheels on the steering wheel for five seconds which momentarily turns off the infotainment. The process can take up to two to three minutes. This can be done while the car is driving as it does not affect critical syst
Instead of working with that same recipe, Jenkins explained, "We had to put a clear line in the sand, in a way, and say what aesthetic elements belong to the internal-combustion era and what aesthetic elements belong to this new era of electrification. Things like this long, powerful hood, big grilles, big air intakes, big exhaust pipes to the rear of the car, angry-looking faces. All the current internal combustion aesthetics, we thought we needed to move beyo
The reason why 80% is the recommended limit is that past that point, charging mechanisms must work extra hard to stuff the last few percentage points into the battery. It’s why it only takes about half an hour to go from zero to 80% battery charge but it takes an hour and a half to go from zero to 100% battery cha
"Obviously, the big focus is launching Air," he replied. "Getting it into production, making sure all our stores are open, making sure our online digital platform for customer experiences is bulletproof and working well. We’re trying to give our customers the best possible online experience and the best possible ownership experien
Thanks to its advanced impact protection, the Tesla Model 3 got a stellar score of five stars in crash-test safety ratings. As it doesn’t have an engine at the front, the empty aluminum and steel at the front of the car draw the shock of a crash. Also, it received top marks in several other safety areas, such as its roof strength and driver-assistance sys
UK based Zero EV specializes in EV conversions, setting out to prove just how great electric cars truly can be. Their goal with this Miata project was mainly to test out its EV setups on small, lightweight roadsters such as the Miatas and MGBs. They wanted to have all the fun and benefits of an EV without loosing any of the joyful characteristics of driving the original car. After all, it is a worthy reminder that the first Tesla, was a converted Lotus Eli
While we loitered in the open-aired showroom waiting for our car being readied, one salesperson joked he'd only let us test drive the Model 3 without supervision if we promised to floor it. "Don't worry, we will," Ryan assured
Tesla, fronted by the often-controversial Elon Musk, is a brand that you hear of just about every day. Recently, it was for the unveiling of its upcoming SUV, the Tesla Cybertruck. The American automakers have completely redefined the electric Car Updates|Https://evinsightzone.Com/ car segment, with the capability to do things that were previously thought impossible with an electric mo
Some might think that since the Model 3 is an electric car, it can’t possibly go that fast, but it is actually as quick as a Ferrari 488 GTB. Also, the range is often an issue in electric cars, but the Model 3 can travel up to 310 miles per charge, and it only takes 15 minutes to recharge to 172 miles. We really are living in the future! Today, we have compiled a list of 15 amazing things that the Tesla Model 3 can do. Let’s get straight to
The Tesla Model 3 features 3 unique drive modes: Chill Mode, Drive Mode, and Track Mode. The Chill mode is meant for energy savings, and it makes the Model 3 much slower, but more efficient. Drive Mode is the standard mode, while track mode allows the car to control whether torque goes to the front or back wheels, which decreases rotation when corner
