Elon Musk unveils Tesla’s fastest car Tesla CEO Elon Musk showed off the Tesla Model S Plaid, the electric car company’s fastest car to date, at a customer event at the company’s plant in Fremont, California, late on Monday. Yesterday Thursday.
Elon Musk unveils Tesla fastest car
“Why are we making this really fast car that’s crazy fast?” asked Musk, after he drove one of the cars onto the stage and took it around the test track.
He replied, “It is very important for the future of sustainable energy. We must show that the electric car is the best car, without any effort.”
Tesla currently makes four models of electric vehicles: the S, X, 3, and Y, but the 3 and Y account for the vast majority of global sales.
Tesla car model
- The Model S Plaid has a range of nearly 400 miles per charge, a top speed of 200 mph, and the car can go from 0 to 60 mph in less than two seconds, Musk said.
- “This is what I call engineering the frontier of physics,” Musk added.
Indoor Entertainment System
- The stunning Tesla Model S sedan, first delivered in 2012, has been a long-awaited update. The phrase “Plaid Mode” is a reference to the 1987 comedy Spaceballs starring Mel Brooks.
- Musk has promoted the in-car entertainment system, saying it’s at the PlayStation5 level, while the audio system has a home theater experience.
- Musk also said, “If you think about the future of the car, mostly in autopilot mode or autonomous driving, entertainment becomes increasingly important.
- You’ll want to watch movies, play games, and use the Internet.”
Delivery times
- With the event over, Musk said they will deliver the first 25 vehicles now, and will soon be delivering several hundred per week and 1,000 per week in the next quarter.
- The electric car market leader, whose eight-fold rise last year helped boost the stock of many new entrants to the sector, has seen a turn of the tables during 2021.
- Tesla hosts one or two related events each year, and it usually keeps customers excited.
- It assures investors that the future is bright while generating a torrent of media coverage, which is critical for a company that doesn’t spend any money on traditional advertising.
