Musk: Model 3 is just a smaller, lower-priced Model S

About Tesla Model 3, which is about to start production in the second half of this year, at least 400,000 fans are looking forward to it like me?

Before last Friday, how many fans, like me, felt that Model 3 should be extremely cool, integrating all the latest technology and the most inspiring ideas of Tesla?

In everyone's good imagination, it should probably be like this: a solar-powered glass roof with heads-up display, a console with the same technology as the space capsule, fully automatic driving It must be properly, there are quite a few Model S, except for the Eagle Wing without Model X...

Iron Man came out to speak: Wake up and wake up! Mdoel 3 is not an iterative product, just a cheaper, smaller product! Before the next generation of Roadster came out, Model S was our flagship!

A small translation: I feel that many people think that Model 3 is the next generation of Tesla products, just like the relationship between iPhone 2 and iPhone 3, but not ~

Musk: Model 3 is just a smaller, lower-priced Model S

When the words came out, the fans said that the little heart couldn't stand the excuse to ask Musk to give an explanation (seeing the good joy, decided to release the gossip screenshot small benefits)

Musk: Model 3 is just a smaller, lower-priced Model S

Musk quickly gave an explanation:

Musk: Model 3 is just a smaller, lower-priced Model S

Small translation: Model 3 is just a smaller, lower-priced Model S. It's not as good as Model S in terms of mileage, power and configuration. Model S has more advanced technologies.

There are some details about Model 3 in the communication of fans:

→ In 2017, the dual-motor full-drive version will not be produced. In the second half of this year, the single-motor rear-drive model will be produced. The dual-motor version will not be launched until 2018. The purpose is to reduce the complexity of the configuration version, so that mass production can be promoted as planned.

→ Under the wheelbase limitation, Mdoel 3 has a maximum battery capacity of only 75kWh

→ Like a large variety of C-Class cars, the trunk can be placed in the next freezer, and optional luggage racks are available.

→ Autopilot hardware is also available

→ Mileage is definitely longer than Bolt (Bolt is 238 miles)

→ Model 3 still surpasses rivals such as Audi A4 and BMW 3 Series in terms of acceleration and other performance, but still not as good as Model S

I don't know if it was boring on the early flight. Musk chatted with fans on Twitter... In addition to revealing the basic progress and details of Model 3, he also said that his Boring Machine has arrived and will start digging tunnels next month. .

The comments behind this tweet all revolve around the positioning of Model 3. Since it is not an iterative product like the iPhone's more advanced mobile phone, is it a low-priced version like the iPhone 5C? Everyone started to discuss why it is called 3, a misleading name. This kind of digital naming is easy to create associations between generations and generations, both in the automotive industry and in the mobile phone industry. Musk then explained the origin of the Model 3 name:

Musk: Model 3 is just a smaller, lower-priced Model S

Love small translation: Model 3 was originally called Model E, because of the obvious reason for spoofing (Muske plans to combine several car names into SEX), but Ford came out to do things (Ford registered the model E's name very early, always Not used, and refused to transfer to Tesla), so now only S3X, the style is completely different :)

Tesla made a special design for the Model 3 car name trademark. The number 3 looks a lot like the letter E. Last month, because of the three bars that provoked Adidas, Adi said that Tesla's Model 3 trademark infringed on its own. Three bars. Tesla later changed the trademark

I don't know if I thought of this, the netizen started to musket Musk and called him 3lon (he called Elon, I laughed and died)

Then Musk sent a small video, Mdoel 3 road test screen.

To be honest, I have not been able to provide more information. But the chat is better than nothing.

Why did Musk suddenly have to explain the positioning of Model 3 and said that he would continue to open Model S every day? Emphasize the positive status of Model S?

A few days ago, Tesla announced that it would stop accepting reservations for the Model S minimum S60 and S60D after April 16, on the grounds that most consumers who purchased the 60/60D version eventually chose to upgrade their battery capacity to 75 kWh. So they simply canceled the 60/60D version and sold it directly from the 75/75D version, making the booking process more streamlined. Of course, this will also increase the starting price of Model S by more than $6,000, from 62,000 to 68,500 (pre-subsidy prices).

Considering that Model 3 will be available in the second half of the year, the price is expected to start at $35,000. The price of its dual-motor/high-performance version is likely to approach the price of Model S, so canceling the Model S low-end version will also free up space for Model 3. Thereby maintaining the independent market space of the two models.

Of course, I know that there will be no fans of the Model 3 dual-motor four-wheel drive version this year. They are starting to discuss how full-drive is necessary for the cold regions, and if the federal government’s subsidies for electric vehicles begin to withdraw next year, it will be launched. The Model 3 high-end version won't be bought by itself... This kind of concern is also justified. The electric vehicle subsidy policy just introduced in New York City has significantly increased the mileage and price of the subsidized vehicles, which makes it eligible. The subsidized models suddenly lost a lot.

In any case, through these revealed details, I think Tesla’s earlier Model 3 production plan is more reliable, clearing the Model S’s flagship status, and guiding the Model 3’s market expectations. After all, the higher the level of the model, the greater the profit, if the Model 3's limelight is too much, affecting the sales of the Model S, it will not be worth the loss.
