Drive anywhere in the US using the Supercharger network, now in all 50 states
@Tesla Serious question. How do you plan to deal with the blackouts across the country from the strain on the already outdated power grid made for gas cars. The amount of power you would need to charge a city of electric cars is insane. Charging stations would basically be substations
@goldraven623 @Tesla Solar has an answer. The sun gives free energy every day. Power walls store the power for use at night. Mini wind turbines can dot your backyard and charge when possible.
@goldraven623 @Tesla Answer is tesla solar panels and power wall which will cost YOU 70k(atleast for my house)
@goldraven623 @Tesla That is an interesting question…also I notice the cost of charging is going up rapidly. Oil companies are buying up charging station companies and charging non-Tesla types a small fortune. Perhaps they will have to reinforce the electric substructure of our cities.
@goldraven623 @Tesla Don't forget the the amount of electricity used by the oil refineries will reduce too, the whole planet needs to just massively reduce burning stuff for the easy option. We don't go to the moon because it is easy !
@goldraven623 @Tesla It requires 3-5kW to refine a gallon of gasoline. That's = 20-25 miles of EV range - almost even-steven. Grid had to grow for billions of cell phone charging and i5/i7 processors, so it did. Any sig price increase in kW will hasten roof-top solar. Tell FUDsters to "Go fish!"
@goldraven623 @Tesla And the winter storms that stranded everyone in VA last week for a full day, Imagine if everybody had electric cars... The thought is nice and good for an alternative car but not practical for everyone to have.
@goldraven623 @Tesla Many (all?) Tesla-built supercharger stations are solar powered. Also, there are tons of EVs all over the world already and the electric grid has yet to implode because of it.
