Futhi u-Elon Musk wavuma. I-CEO kaTesla yayithembise ukuqala ukukhiqiza iModel 3 ngenyanga kaJulayi futhi lowo mgomo wafinyelelwa. Kule mpelasonto, emcimbini wabezindaba, unikeze izikhiye ze-30 Model 3s zokuqala kubanikazi bazo abasha.
Laba ngabasebenzi bakwaTesla uqobo, abazophinde basebenze njengabahloli be-beta, okungukuthi, abashayeli bezindiza bokuhlola abazokuvumela ukuthi ulungise yonke imiphetho enzima ngaphambi kokuba ukulethwa kokuqala kumakhasimende kuqale ukwenziwa ngo-Okthoba.
Uhlu lokulinda lude. Ukwethulwa kwe-Model 3, ngo-April 2016, kwaholela kubantu abangu-373,000 abenze ukubhuka kwangaphambili - cishe ama-dollar angu-1000 - into efana kuphela nokwethulwa kwe-iPhone entsha. Kodwa lelo nani alikayeki ukukhula. UMusk uvumile ukuthi inani lokubhukha ngaphambilini njengamanje lifinyelela ku-500,000. Ngamanye amazwi, ngezinhlelo zokukhiqiza ezimenyezelwe, ukulethwa okuningi kuzokwenzeka kuphela ngo-2018.
Izinhlelo zikhomba izimoto ezingaphezu kwe-100 ezikhiqizwa ngenyanga ka-Agasti, ezingaphezu kuka-1500 ngoSepthemba futhi kusukela lapho kuqhubeke ukukhulisa i-cadence kuze kufike ezinkulungwaneni ezingu-20 zamayunithi ngenyanga ngoDisemba. Umgomo wezimoto ezingu-500,000 ngonyaka kufanele ube nokwenzeka ngo-2018.
Ukungabaza kusaphikelela mayelana nekhono likaTesla lokugxuma kusuka kumakhi omncane kuya kweyevolumu ephezulu. Hhayi nje ngenxa yobukhulu bomsebenzi wokufaka umugqa wokukhiqiza okwazi ukukhiqiza izimoto eziyingxenye yesigidi ngonyaka, kodwa nangenxa yomthamo wokubhekana nokuthengiswa ngemuva kokuthengisa. Izinkinga ezike zabhekana nazo iModel S neModel X ziyaziwa, ngakho-ke kuphoqelekile ukuthi ukwethulwa kweModel 3, ezokwengeza amakhulu ezinkulungwane zezimoto ezintsha ngonyaka, kube ngcono. I-Model 3 iyisivivinyo sokugcina se-litmus sikaTesla.
Intengo yokufinyelela ye-$35,000? hhayi impela
Njengoba kunikezwe inombolo yokuqala yama-oda okufanele agcwaliswe, kwakudingeka ukwenza lula umugqa wokukhiqiza ngangokunokwenzeka. Ngalokho, ukucushwa okukodwa kuphela kwe-Model 3 kuzokhiqizwa ekuqaleni futhi kuzobiza cishe ama-dollar ayizinkulungwane ezingu-49, ama-dollar ayizinkulungwane ezingu-14 ngaphezu kwezinkulungwane ze-35 ezithenjisiwe. Inguqulo yokufinyelela ebangeni izofinyelela kuphela emugqeni wokukhiqiza ekupheleni konyaka.Okunye okungu-$14,000 kuletha ibhethri elikhudlwana - elivumela ukuzimela okungu-499 km esikhundleni sika-354 km wenguqulo yesisekelo - nokusebenza okungcono. I-0-96 km/h iqedwa ngemizuzwana engu-5.1, imizuzwana engu-0.5 ngaphansi kwenguqulo yokufinyelela. Ibanga elide liyinketho ye-$9000, ngakho-ke i-$ 5000 esele izoholela ekwengezweni kwephakheji ye-Premium. Le phakheji ihlanganisa izinto ezisetshenziswayo njengezihlalo neziteringi ezishintshwa ngogesi, izihlalo ezifudumalayo, i-panoramic roof, i-audio system yekhwalithi ephezulu kanye nokumboza okungcono kwangaphakathi, njengokhuni.
Ngisho nalapho ukukhiqizwa kusejubaneni lokuhamba futhi konke ukulungiselelwa kukhiqizwa, uTesla ngokwakhe ulinganisela ukuthi i-Model 3 izoba nenani lentengo eliphakathi nendawo elilinganiselwa ku-$42,000 ngeyunithi ngayinye, ikubeka ezingeni, e-US, lesigaba se-premium D, lapho singakwazi khona. thola iziphakamiso ezifana neBMW 3 Series.
Imodeli 3 ngokuningiliziwe
Ngonyaka odlule sazi ama-prototypes okuqala kanye nemodeli yokugcina yokukhiqiza ye-Tesla Model 3, ayihlukile kakhulu kubo. Ikhala le-Model 3 eligxekiwe selithambekile, i-trunk ibone ukufinyelela kwayo kuthuthukisiwe, futhi izihlalo zigoqeke zehle zibe ngu-40/60. Ngomzimba inkulu kune-BMW 3 Series – ingu-4.69 m ubude, 1.85 m ububanzi no-1.44 m ukuphakama. I-wheelbase yinde, ifinyelela ku-2.87 m futhi ithembisa amanani wamakamelo afana nemodeli yaseJalimane.
Okwamanje ifika kuphela nedrayivu engemuva - wonke amasondo izotholakala ngo-2018 - futhi isisindo 1609 noma 1730 kg, kuya ngebhethri pack. I-suspension yangaphambili inama-double wishbones, kanti ngemuva isebenzisa isakhiwo esinezingalo eziningi. Amasondo angama-intshi angu-18 njengokujwayelekile, nama-intshi angu-19 njengenketho.
Kodwa kungaphakathi lapho iModel 3 igqama khona, ithatha i-minimalism iye ezingeni elisha. Ayikho ideshibhodi evamile, isikrini esithintwayo esikhulu esingu-15 inch nje esimaphakathi. Amabhathini akhona yilawo atholakala esiteringini kanti ngemuva kwawo kukhona izinduku njengakwezinye izimoto. Uma kungenjalo, yonke into izofinyeleleka kuphela futhi kuphela ngesikrini esimaphakathi.
Njengenjwayelo i-Model 3 iza nazo zonke ihadiwe ezidingekayo zamakhono athile azimele - amakhamera ayisikhombisa, i-radar yangaphambili, izinzwa eziyi-12 ze-ultrasonic. Kodwa ukuze ufinyelele amandla aphelele e-Autopilot uzodinga ukukhokha okwengeziwe. THE I-Autopilot ethuthukisiwe iyatholakala ngenani elingeziwe lama-$5000, okuvumela ukulawula okusebenzayo kohambo lwesikebhe nosizo lokuhlala emzileni. I-Model 3 yokuzimela ngokwayo izoba inketho yesikhathi esizayo futhi isivele inentengo - enye i-$ 3000 ngaphezulu kwe-$ 5000. Noma kunjalo, ukutholakala kwalolu khetho akuxhomekile ku-Tesla, kodwa kunalokho ekusungulweni kwemithethonqubo ezothinta izimoto ezizimele.
KumaPutukezi abhukhe kusengaphambili i-Tesla Model 3, ukulinda kusazoba kude. Ukulethwa kokuqala kuzokwenzeka kuphela ngo-2018.
