Model S is the most technological model of electric cars.
Tesla electric cars that can be ordered in autoenterprise.com.ua/tesla-model-s/ clearly stand out against the background of all previous requests for the creation of an electric car. The company not only made an electric car, but also brought its characteristics to the level of cars equipped with an internal combustion engine. 416 horsepower, acceleration to 100 km/h in less than 5 seconds, maximum speed: 210 km/h (the limit is set by the electronic system), a range of 400 km, good controllability and effective braking - all this is the Tesla Model S. The biggest This electric car gained popularity in Norway, which was significantly helped by the preferential system that applies when purchasing.
Engine and on-board computer
The heart of the machine is a simple three-phase asynchronous engine, which receives power through a converter from a lithium-ion battery located in the floor. A single-stage gearbox transmits the rotation of the shaft to the rear axle of the machine.
On-board electronics of the car are also of interest. Instead of many buttons, switches, displays – a 17-inch touch screen that supports work with other electronic devices. This on-board computer contains all service functions and is supplemented with some entertainment ones. The absolute absence of buttons is impressive, except for the buttons for opening the glove box and the emergency alarm. This feature has become a Tesla tradition, and perhaps thanks to it, the company's persistent association with smartphones arises. But as a filling, a four-core NVIDIA Tegra 3 processor is used, which again speaks of the connection of the machine with portable computers. Two applications, be it navigation maps, a web browser or a media player, can easily be placed on the huge screen. Climate control parameters are constantly displayed in the lower part.
Design and interior
The driver's display displays the status of the car and all the data necessary for the trip. When you press the quick access keys on the steering wheel, a list of functions that can be adjusted without leaving the controls opens on the right.
The exterior design of the car resembles European rather than American models. In the lateral curves and proportions of the car, you can guess the outlines of Jaguar and, perhaps, Mazda - the leading designer of the model worked there before joining Tesla.
The only thing that indicates the American origin of the car and the small volume of production is the quality of assembly. In some places, the interior details are poorly joined, the gaps are not completely uniform. Yes, the car will not be called a premium class car, but that was not the main goal.
The interior is quite minimalist: a compact three-spoke steering wheel, the front panel is decorated in leather and supplemented with lacquered and silver inserts. The salon is quite spacious, but the descending roof over the rear passengers may cause some inconvenience to tall people. However, there is enough legroom. With the almost five-meter length of the car, one would expect more space. A nice addition: a spacious trunk: in addition to the main rear one, there is another luggage compartment under the hood. The total volume is almost 1000 liters.
Prospects
As always, the main disadvantage of electric cars is the lack of charging stations for them. The charging station for this electric car assumes the presence of a 32 A line. Only such current is capable of charging the batteries for several hours.
Unfortunately, at the moment the infrastructure is not sufficiently developed for the large-scale implementation of electric cars, but in the foreseeable future they may displace the usual internal combustion engine from city roads.
The most interesting thing about the project is the fact that in his official statement, Elon Musk spoke in favor of open access to Tesla's developments: so anyone can use the company's engineering solutions. This is another step towards the world of accessible information.
