- Teslas Vice President of Vehicle Technology Lets Slide About Update
- Recent Model 3 and Model Y -Update is likely to affect upgrades
- Could Plaid+ Variant return to Model S?
Tesla can be credited by spearing the electric vehicle revolution, which is now undoubtedly in full swing, but it can also be criticized for resting on its laurels when it comes to introducing new products and refreshingly old.
Both Model S and Model X have waited four years for an update, with even the previous 2021 adjustments that turn out to be underway. Instead, Musk’s company has been dependent on over Air (OTA) updates to add new software features to keep things interesting.
However, Lars Moravy, Vice President of Vehicle Technology, revealed on the Lightning Podcast (via Electrek) that both Model X and Model S would receive “some love” later in the year, not stopping revealing full information about what it can cause.
We all know that Tesla operates outside the car standards and turns off the older product life cycles that tend to see models updated or updated two or three years after launch before a replacement model is announced a few years thereafter.
To put together cases, this traditional life cycle has been accelerated in an era of battery packs and electric motors, such is the advancement of advancement in battery technology, range and performance.
As a result, Tesla is not only facing much stiffer competition from co -producers, many of whom now offer a whole range of electrified passenger cars and even vans, but also the threat of more predictable facelift and update cycles that help keep PR and marketing production in full effect.
The newly updated Model Y shows that change is very welcome when it comes to Tesla’s pretty much aging line-up. If we are witnessing much needed updates to Model S and Model X this year, here are the 5 things we would like to see.
1. Sharper styling from Model Y and Model 3
Tesla’s treatment of the front and rear bumper as well as the rear light beam in full width of the newly refreshed model Y has made a night-and-day difference for the way the vehicle looks.
It is generally slimmer, more targeted and simply cuts a more modern form on today’s ways, which is now filled with exciting EV design from Kia, Lucid, Rivian, Renault, Peugeot and many more.
Although Model S still looks pretty good today, it would take advantage of updated exterior styling, while Model X, complete with its Falcon-Wing doors, could take advantage of the various innovations in mass production to introduce a completely more forward approach to design For design.
Something that will keep up with the rapidly progressive car design trends that seem to remain in the foreseeable future.
2. Improved suspension and refining
Often the ass of the jokes of the automotive industry and Jibes, Tesla’s models have long a bit of relatively poor quality control, a fidgety trip and a general lack of refinement that Mercedes-Benz and BMW are famous for.
Again, the newly updated Model Y and Model 3 have made huge improvements when it comes to the silence of the cabin, the vehicle’s body control and general handling dynamics thanks to chassis and suspension innovations made during the development of cyber truck.
3 .. Better interior quality and more technical
Small things, such as ambient lighting and heated seats everywhere, helped lift the interior quality of the newly refreshed model Y. Next to this Tesla also added another screen at the back (as it did with Model 3) so passengers can Enjoy entertainment on the go.
This update could also take advantage of ditching the out-style steering wheel found in Model S and Model X, replacing it with something more traditional, complete with proper indicator stems rather than cumbersome buttons.
As with all Tesla’s recent model setup, Model S and Model X will greatly benefit from the latest Hardware 4 (HW4) setups that allow the vehicles to effective functions.
4. Exciting Plaid -Models
Tesla Model S Plaid already has a number of sought -after lap records, including being one of the fastest production cars to deal with Germany’s notorious Nurburgring, but it has not stopped the puns that want more.
The rumor mill has worked overtime too late, talking about a Plaid+ variant returning to Model S, which would see acceleration and top speeds lifted, as well as improvements that were introduced to handling.
5. Faster charging and better battery range
Although Tesla improved the electrical interval in the refreshed model y, the numbers were not exactly mind. The official EPA-classified range sneaked up from 311 miles for the outgoing model to 320 miles.
In addition, the Tesla 800V has electric architecture in its Armory, which means it could offer versions of Model S and Model X with fast charging ability, which greatly reduces the amount of time sitting on Teslas admittedly brilliant Supercharger network.
