Electric cars, Bye Bye Fossil Fuels.
Where are the car enthusiasts at? Gather around
Ford, Toyota, BMW, Lamborghini etc, almost all car makers are either close to a century old, well except newbies like Koesniggag sic and Tesla. Elon Musk as a poor young boy in South Africa had big dreams, PayPal, SpaceX and now Tesla.
We all doubted full electric cars but now Tesla has proved as wrong and with the latest entrant, The P100D, hypercars are getting a run for their money.
The P100D is now the FASTEST production car, out of the blues, just like that, now the Buggati Chiron, Lamborghini Aventador, Mclaren P1,Porsche 911 Turbo S with all its cylinders and forced induction is trying to beat an electric motor.
But why would they P100D get off the line quickest, no turbo lag, no throttle opening, no transmission shifting, no motor waiting for the fuel to be delivered, just floor it and the motor reacts immediately, Ludicrous they call it.
A family sedan beating performance cars hands down. Data from 286 Tesla owners around the world shows that the battery degradation every 100k Kms is 5% and a Tesla at 300k Kms has a total of 6% battery loss.
Would I buy a Tesla? No twin scroll issues, emissions or valve tronic, electric literally eliminates 80% of all car problems we are facing. Your power bill also don't go up, rechargeable energy. Who I buy a Tesla?
Definitely YES but under 2 conditions, they build a service center in Kenya and if they make a poor man's version of the P110D.
