Gittin Jr. and Jonny also discuss how although the body is an actual production Mach-E, the aero is a fully functional system capable of generating 2,300 lbs of downforce that was designed to be effective on both a road course and drifting, featuring a lightweight hood made from f
Power is serious too with the Hummer as the top of the range model is rated at 1,000 horsepower and 11,500 lb-ft of torque. The motors will propel the vehicle to 60 miles per hour in just 3 seconds. That's good enough to keep up with the other big players in the space and for the first time, a company with more history than Tesla is in the sp
Leaving the irrelevancies of past ICE design behind, Jenkins believed Lucid could entirely rework the basic notion of what a car’s form can achieve. For luxury brands in the 1990s and 2000s, Jenkins felt, "It was often about tradition and brand legacy, how many times you’ve won Le Mans. And I just don’t feel like that kind of legacy is nearly as relevant these da
Did you know that the Tesla Model 3 was an insanely fast car? It can zip from 0 to 60 miles per hour in only 3.2 seconds, making it almost as fast as a Ferrari 488GTB. It comes equipped with a carbon fiber spoiler, which makes the car more stable when driving quickly - and it looks kinda styl
They get to talking about how unlike most production EV cars, the Mach-E actually has seven motors – three stacked in the front and four in the back. Concering the motors, while Gittin Jr. claims that "when they go, they’re whining like crazy," they still wanted to create a sound that would help the Mach-E stand out from the pack. The pro drifter confirms two ways they did this: first, teaming up with Harman for the speakers; second, working personally with American rapper T-Pain to develop the sound its
While iterating new design details in VR, Jenkins and the Lucid Air team constantly kept real-world sales in mind. Lucid’s ethos is upscale, luxurious, performance-oriented, elegant—all words Jenkins repeated frequently. And the decision to go upscale—rather than produce a Model 3 competitor, for example—was purpose
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
"There’s always a temptation with electric cars to go super futuristic, like taken from a Tron movie," he explained. "We felt like we can dabble in that a little bit but most luxury buyers today—and in a couple of years—don’t necessarily want a piece of science fiction in their driveway. They want something relatable, clearly future-focused but still elegant and sophisticated, as we
"Obviously, Tesla Model S started out with a big grille type aesthetic and later on evolved away from that. But that was our focus, from day one: to really avoid all the traditional elements of luxury and luxury sport sedans and try to bring something more modern to mark
Gittin Jr. gets to talking about what the vehicle is like to drive and how it compares to his Formula Drift Mustang. Gittin Jr. mentions that when he first felt the immense acceleration, he thought that something was actually wrong because it felt so unnatural to
After driving the prototype Miata, Jonny mentions just how much the EV still feels just like a regular automatic Miata. He mentions how it is just as agile and joyful to drive as the original, saying it's just like driving an automatic NB without the terribleness of realizing you made the mistake of buying an automatic Mi
UK based Zero EV specializes in ev game Tips|Https://evinsightzone.com/ 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
Yes, as we mentioned, the Tesla Model 3 has the ability to drive itself. It is not fully autonomous yet, but according to the American automakers, it will become more capable with time. It can drive itself, park, change lanes, and soon, it will be able to recognize and react to traffic lig
As everything can be controlled via the touch-screen and voice command, there are only 2 physical buttons in the entire car. Some have criticized this, but this allows you to change settings far more intuitively. Remember when people first criticized the touch-screen on mobile phones? Now, it’s on almost every phone out th
The giant size of the Hummer provides ample space for batteries and with 350 miles available of range per charge, it should be capable of taking most owners anywhere they might want to go. When hooked up to a quick charger, the EV truck can charge to 100 miles of range in just ten minutes. That's clearly enough for the average consumer who travels far less than that each
