[B]-[/B]Notably absent from the vehicle are side view mirrors. Musk didn’t reference them during the Tesla shareholders meeting where the photo was released, but the design could indicate plans to replace them with video cameras, if regulations are updated to allow it. [B]-[/B]The Model Y will be built on an all-new platform, rather than the Model 3s. The Model Y will use a next-generation platform that not only uses new technologies, but will be cheaper to produce than the Model 3 and may require an all-new factory, although specific plans for one were not revealed.

what happens when they run out of letters

Elon's a cheeky bastard.

[QUOTE=ScottyWired;52323024]what happens when they run out of letters[/QUOTE] Elon Musk achieves the highest state of inner Chi. [editline]7th June 2017[/editline] According to the article Tesla is planning on unveiling a pickup within the next two years, I really want to see what kind of capabilities that has since more industrial equipment require a heavy body.

[QUOTE=ScottyWired;52323024]what happens when they run out of letters[/QUOTE] Change alphabets.

[QUOTE=ScottyWired;52323024]what happens when they run out of letters[/QUOTE] They probably should have started at the beginning to delay this problem.

[QUOTE=ScottyWired;52323024]what happens when they run out of letters[/QUOTE] They'll have to use an upcase letter, a lowercase letter, a number, a symbol, and have it be at least 8 characters long

Hard to get behind the removal of side mirrors. The ability to move your head around to increase your field of view is important to me. I suppose if they've got a normal lens camera and a fisheye camera it could work.

Tesla Model 💯

[QUOTE=James xX;52323174]They really need to hire a better photography, can't tell a thing from this picture[/QUOTE] That's the point.

From the foggy picture, the front kinda looks like a [URL="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/97/Aston_Martin_DB9_-_Flickr_-_Alexandre_Pr%C3%A9vot_%2816%29_%28cropped%29.jpg/1200px-Aston_Martin_DB9_-_Flickr_-_Alexandre_Pr%C3%A9vot_%2816%29_%28cropped%29.jpg"]DB9[/URL] with a bigger windshield and a shorter hood.

[QUOTE=Janus Vesta;52323068]They probably should have started at the beginning to delay this problem.[/QUOTE] And then get sued into oblivion by Ford's lawyers. They made enough of a stink about Ferrari's F1 car a couple yeara ago to get them to change the name, they will eviscerate Tesla for releasing a model A or model T. Musk knows that, I'm sure, so he wont be using those badges. No, it isn't logical, nobody's going to confuse the first and second models Ford ever sold commercially for a 21st centurt BEV, but then again that didnt stop them going after Ferrari regarding the F150 name.

[QUOTE=ScottyWired;52323024]what happens when they run out of letters[/QUOTE] Ford's been stuck on F for a while All they need to do is stick to a letter and increment the number, or add another letter like the tesla xz

Does it have a gull-wing hood too?

Not a fan of no mirrors

[QUOTE=Grenadiac;52323116]Tesla Model T[/QUOTE] Honestly I'd imagine they're saving that title because of the expectation itd have to live up to :v:

[QUOTE=SirJon;52323754]Not a fan of no mirrors[/QUOTE] Probably will actually have mirrors. The Model X concept didn't have mirrors either.

[QUOTE=Karmah;52323630]Ford's been stuck on F for a while All they need to do is stick to a letter and increment the number, or add another letter like the tesla xz[/QUOTE] I like Lexus' system. IS = intelligent sedan ES = executive sedan GS = grand sedan RX = radiant crossover LX = luxury crossover GX = grand crossover RC = radical coupe LC = luxury coupe The suffix then specifies the engine. IS350 would be a 3.5L i6, a RC200t would be a 2.0 turbo 4cyl, the GSF would be a 5.0L v8

Had to opt for 3 to still make it fit as S3XY.
