Ukuze uqhubeke ukhula kwaye ufikelele kwiimarike ezininzi apho izithuthi zombane zingekabikho, uTesla uphuhlisa injini entsha yepetroli eqhutywa kuphela ngamafutha okwenziwa, eya kwaziswa kwangethuba ngo-2025.
Isigqibo esikhuthazwa ngokuchanekileyo kukufika kwamafutha enziweyo aya kuba nawo ngenxa yoko, ngokutsho kwabahlalutyi, ukuhlehliswa kwenkqubo yokufakelwa kombane yemoto kumashumi eminyaka emininzi, kuqikelelwa ukuba kuya kuphela kwinkulungwane ezayo.
Amafutha e-Synthetic aqinisekisa ukukhutshwa kwegesi encinci ye-greenhouse - emva koko, basebenzisa i-CO2 ebanjwe emoyeni njengenye yezithako zabo eziphambili - ukuphelisa ezininzi iingxaki zokusebenzisa i-fossil fuels kunye nokwenza "indoda endala" yokutshisa injini inendima ebalulekileyo ekunciphiseni i-greenhouse. ukukhutshwa kwegesi.
Ihlabathi lemoto lisebenza ngezantya ezahlukeneyo kwaye ngelixa eYurophu naseTshayina imoto yombane ibonakala "njengesiqhelo esitsha" kwi-10 ezayo ukuya kwiminyaka eyi-20, kwezinye iindawo zehlabathi imoto yombane isengumanga kwaye iya kuqhubeka. ngoko ixesha elide. Izicwangciso ze-Musk zokwandisa iTesla ziphazamiseka.
Ukuba awukwazi ukuboyisa, bajoyine
Ukugubungela zonke iziseko, u-Elon Musk unike ukukhanya okuluhlaza kwiiveki zamva nje kuphuhliso, abanye banokuthi bangakholeleki, yenjini yepetroli engazange ibonwe ngaphambili eTesla.
Intshukumo engazange ibonwe ngaphambili eshiye abathengi bolu phawu kunye nabalandeli bemangalisiwe, kodwa hayi iimarike - izabelo zikaTesla kulindeleke ukuba zithathe elinye inyathelo kwiintsuku ezizayo.
Nangona kunjalo, sukulinda imodeli yexesha elizayo evela kwi-100% ye-brand… ukuvutha. Iimodeli zexesha elizayo ezine-injini yepetroli ziya kuqhubeka ziqhutywa ziinjini zombane. Ewe, le njini yepetroli iya kusebenza njengejenereyitha, ithatha indawo yeebhetri. Ngamanye amazwi, iya kuba yimoto exutyiweyo, njengoko sibonile kwezinye iibrendi ezinjengeNissan kunye neHonda.
Okwangoku, ulwazi lusanqongophele kakhulu kwaye akunakwenzeka ukwazi ukuba luhlobo luni lwe-injini: ingaba i-stroke ezimbini okanye ezine? Ngaba yi-cylinder okanye injini yerotor? Ingqikelelo iphezulu, kodwa ivela kuTesla, ngokuqinisekileyo iya kuba sisisombululo "esingaphandle kwebhokisi".
Siyazi kuphela ukuba lonke uphuhliso luya kulungiswa ukusebenzisa i-fuel synthetic, kule meko i-petroli ye-synthetic, ethi ngenxa yobume bayo ayinayo ukungcola okufanayo ne-petroleum-derived petroli.
Nangona kunjalo, kutshanje, sibone iprototype ye-Model 3 (kumfanekiso oqaqambileyo) ngamagama athi "Hyper Hybrid" ecaleni - yindlela iteknoloji eya kwaziwa ngayo? Ngokutsho kwemithombo yangaphakathi, iprototype yokuqala apho injini encinci yokutshisa yangaphakathi yongezwa (kodwa kungekhona enye iTesla ephuhlisayo) kunye neebhetri zisusiwe, eziye zabonisa ukusebenza kwenkqubo yonke.
Injini yepetroli enembambo yesiPhuthukezi kunye nobuchwepheshe bendawo
Akukho ndawo kwihlabathi apho isiPhuthukezi singathethi, kwaye kunjalo naseFremont, eCalifornia, apho iTesla isekelwe khona. Iqela elihlanganiswe ngu-Elon Musk ukuphuhlisa le injini yepetroli ikhokelwa ngumPhuthukezi: Álvaro Cambota.
Unyana wabafuduki basePutukezi, le njineli yomatshini yabamba ingqalelo kaMusk kwi-SpaceX, apho u-Álvaro Cambota wayebandakanyeka ekuphuhliseni inkqubo ye-rocket ye-Falcon 9.
U-Musk wamkhetha ukuba akhokele iqela, njengoko ukubandakanyeka kweCambota ekuphuhliseni iinjini ze-Falcon 9 kuye kwakhokelela ekuphuculeni okubalulekileyo kwezobuchwepheshe obuhambelana nokutsha, ezinezicelo kwiinjini ezinokuthi ziqhube iimoto.
IGigafactory yeenjini zepetroli zeTesla kwindlela eya ePortugal?
IPortugal inokuba nendima eyongezelelweyo ngokunxulumene nenjini yepetroli kaTesla. Uqhagamshelwano olusekwe phakathi kweTesla kunye nePutukezi State ngexesha lenkqubo yokukhetha indawo yokwakha iGigafactory eYurophu - yaphela ukuya eBerlin, eJamani - kuthetha ukuba iPortugal ngoku iphambili ekwakheni iGigafactory ... kwiinjini zepetroli.
Inkqubo yesigqibo ayikapheli - amazwe amaninzi ayaqwalaselwa -, kodwa isibhengezo esisemthethweni siya kwenzeka kanye ngonyaka omnye ukususela ngoku, nge-1 ka-Epreli 2022. Injini yepetroli kaTesla iya kubetha kwintengiso ngo-2025, ngoko ke umzi-mveliso kuya kufuneka ulungile kwakamsinya, ngo-2024.
Siyathemba ukuba uyonwabele eli bali ukususela ngomhla woku-1 ku-Epreli, uSuku lweZidenge zika-Aprili. Ngoku ukuba sonwabile, qhubeka ujonge amanqaku ethu aqhelekileyo apha kwaye ubhalisele ijelo lethu likaYouTube.
