Tesla, which came to the fore frequently in this period when the automotive industry began to electrify, is considered one of the pioneers of this change. Although the company has recently recalled approximately 1 million vehicles due to various problems, it has also succeeded in being a source of inspiration for automobile manufacturers that have been operating in this field for years with its new technologies.
As it will be remembered, Elon Musk had a small argument with US President Joe Biden, who ignored Tesla in his social media sharing about electric cars recently. The businessman has now made important statements about the 1,000 km range Tesla, which has come to the fore at regular intervals.
Will Elon Musk shut down Tesla cars in Russia?
Russia, which is one of the most important markets for Tesla, may temporarily bid farewell to Tesla cars within the scope of sanctions.
Elon Musk explained: Can Tesla with a range of 1,000 km come?
After the widespread use of electric cars, some car manufacturers have tried vehicles with a range of 1,000 km. We can cite the Vision EQXX, which Mercedes showcased before the CES 2022 fair, as an example.
With the talk of cars with a range of 1,000 km in the industry, Tesla’s attitude on this issue became a matter of great curiosity. The CEO of the company, Elon Musk, clarified this situation in the past hours.
Elon Musk, on Twitter, stated that they had a chance to produce a Tesla Model S with a range of 1,000 km 12 months ago, but they did not do this. The businessman used the following expressions;
We could have produced a Model S with a range of 1,000km 12 months ago, but this step would have deteriorated the car drastically, as there would have been unnecessary battery mass, which would have adversely affected acceleration, handling and efficiency. For now, our cars with a range of 600 km or more are sufficient.
