1.its not 3 in 40k... its 3 in the number of teslas that crashed, we dont have numbers for that, but it cant be that high. 2.and no, burning long after the crash is possible when batteries and the cooling system are damaged. the risiko can be minimised, but its still there, gm had to hold sales of a E-car because they ha a faulty design that made cars burn up to 3 weeks after a crashtest. tesla will maybe never make these errors, but some company will do em and a lot of people will die because of that. 3. they invest in production and services, but not so much in r&d. i dont have high hopes in tesla, they dont turned a profit ever and burn money with every sold car. they ust have money because they are cool and can get a lot of money from investors, but that will end at somepoint, nobody like too burn money for a long time |
- your initial statement was 3 in a fleet o 21k cars. . and now your are switching it to only the cars that crashed? well you should have been more clear.
- like every kinda new tech advancements will be made. you cannot have progressif attempts are not made to begin with. and why I say you don't seem to know what you are talking about, you do realize gm owns Chevrolet. do you also know that the Chevy volt, is made by Chevrolet. unless you are referring to the ev-1 announced way back in the 90s that was just an electric concept car. you know what concept cars are right?
- and pls, show or point out a link where electric cars are known to burn 3 weeks after a crash test. damn where do you even come up with these things.
- and drop the Tesla not investing in r and do. that's just wrong. they manufactured and make their own electric motor. they also designed and asslmble their battery packs. and came up with the idea of laying the batteries flat in the car. they supply electric vehicle components to toyata and Mercedes. they are the industry leaders in electric vehicle research, development, design and implementation. the sister companies of Tesla is space x, which is designing the grasshopper rocket launches stuff into space for NASA or the iss and is planning on going to Mars, the other one is solar city, which is one of the biggest solar companies in america. I could go on, so pls, just stop.
- they just have money cause they are cool and can get money from investors? wow..... OK. I give up.

1. i dont have the newest numbers, so its 3 cars that burned after a crash in a fleet of 21k. and i was hoping it was clear that we are talking about cars that burned after a crash.
2. it was a volt that burned 3 weeks after a crashtest.
3. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/01/05/chevy-volts-called-back-recalled-gm-batteries_n_1186253.html
they recalled it after the cars from the crashtest catched fire up to 3 weeks after the incident...
4. they invest realy little in r&d, and they are just leading in range because they use the biggest batteries and they like to lie like every other car company, you dont get 350+km out of the car if its cold or if you drive a bit faster... some test say it doesnt even gets you 200km if you drive like a normal person, above 160km/h the range is just a joke, travelling a longer way will must be a pain in the ass, because you have to stop at allmost every freaking stop if the autobahn is free and you can drive 180km/h or above. i cant imagine how people that travel alot can stand such a car. its maybe a good car if you live in a country with girly laws like the us, but not i country with good roads and good laws like germany. 85mp/h on a interstate highway? you kidding me?
