Week 12 [18.06-24.06.2018] Tesla Inc.

Tesla company was founded in 2003 year by Elon Musk, Martin Eberhard, Marc Tarpenning, Ian Wright and JB Straubel. Company specialized in production of cars, Solar Roof, superchargers (SolarCity) and Tesla Powerpack. They make huge progress in electrification of cars and cities. At this time we know about such cars manufactured in Tesla like Tesla Roadster, Tesla Model S, Tesla Model X, Tesla Model 3 and truck Tesla Semi.
Tesla Roadster
Tesla Roadster is the first car produced by Tesla Motors and also the first car in a SPACE! Official presentation of it was in 19 July 2006 year in Santa Monica. It has been assembled in Great Britain. Tesla Roadster was as start for Tesla company because they have business strategy to make first expensive electric car to make money for future cars development and production.
In 6th of February 2018 Tesla Roadster has been launched into space to Mars orbit instead of usual beton brick to demonstrate opportunities of Falcon Heavy rocket. Elon Musk commented this decision and he told that it’s more interesting to launch car in to space first of all because they are the first who made this and there are nobody wanted to launch something on first rocket.

Tesla Model S
Tesla Model S introduced in International Motor Show in Germany in 2009 year. It was the second car produced by Tesla Motors and the first part of business model to sell high-price car and get money for cheaper car development.
Tesla Model X
Tesla Model X introduced in 9th February 2012 year in Los Angeles. This is the only fully electric luxury crossover provided in a market. It has big panoram-window and doors that open up. This is the fastest crossover of planet after the moment when it won Lamborghini Aventador SV.
Tesla Model 3
Tesla Model 3 is a third car in Tesla business strategy. Tesla company had problem with name of third car because they had plane to name “Tesla Model E” to get models name sounds like “S E X” but Ford not allowed name of the car by this name argue this as they have rights for this name so Tesla had no way and they named this car “3”. Elon Musk  told that “Ford killed all SEX”. Tesla Model 3 is a first model oriented for global user marked first of all because it costs $35 000.

At this time tesla presented new roadster and Tesla Semi truck and they also developed level 5 autopilot. Tesla opened their patents for everyone to make electric car usual fenomen for us.

I'm a petrolhead so electric cars aren't the ones I like the most because I love the smell of petrol but I like gadgets and technological things and I can say that I'm keen on electric cars to some extent. It's very futuristic and I'm willing to see what more will be achieved. I've tried to drive both, the hybrid and the electric car and it's funny new experience. Maybe some time I will bu one electric car just for fun but I will always be petrol fan.

I really like the idea of efficient and eco-friendly electric cars, but the concept itself is not new. There was an attempt in the late 90's to start mass production of electric cars like Tesla but it failed. I guess the reason the whole idea with electric car failed back then was due to high costs of producing one and experimental nature of such cars.
No, unfortunately, I 've never had an opportunity to drive an electric or hybrid car.
Not sure, If I would buy an electric car, but I would like to have a hybrid for sure. In my opinion, a car which can run both on petrol and electricity is more convenient than a regular electric automobile.
Honestly, i believe that one day we will have only electric cars around the world and i hope that this future is closer to us that we can't imagine. Yeah, i had an experience to drive a fully electric car and that feeling was really awesome. I have never tried to drive hybrid cars and i don't believe in them. My dream for today is to buy tesla, don't know about exact model but it would be breathtaking moment for me

I am very interested in electric cars. Electric machines have fewer pellucid burns because they do not create air pollution, and they have many fans in the world.
Yes, I've driven an electric car. It's very attractive to them, while I was having a different feeling than driving a gasoline car.
Yes, I'd love to have one of these cars, maybe I bought one of them in the near future.

1. I think that the electric car is very progressive and economical and does not harm the environment.
2. I have not tried to drive yet, but I hope that soon I will have such an opportunity.
3. Yes, of all electric machines I would like Tesla. I really like Tesla Roadster.

I love sound of a powerful engine and always will. However, if petrol cars will be replaced by electric cars, it won't be a problem for me. But for now, they are still not enough popular, and there isn't enough of infrastructure to support them, at least in Poland. Their current technologies don't offer the same level of convenience as petrol cars when it comes to charging batteries. So i would like to try to drive an electric car, but I wouldn't buy one at this point.
It's your choice. But I'm not agreed with you.
I think hybrid is a good choice for now but in future better to have electric car.
This fans is crazy but I love them :)
Yes, one of benefits of petrol cars is sound but not always, especially in the city where a lot of sound pollution.
Marcin Mróz said…
The idea of electric cars is very good and I think that everyone should start using an electric car as it's more economical and ecological. But unfortunately the world is probably not ready for this. There are a lot of petrol stations on the road, but where you would charge your car when you would need to? I guess that hybrid cars are the more realistic option for now for people to use and they could be a thing in the near future. Recently, I got into hybrid bus and I was really surprised how quiet it was comparing to the normal ones. I don't know if it was a matter of being hybrid or not but it really surprised me positively.

What do you think about electric cars?
I'm excited that we live at time when electric cars become a mainstream.

Have you ever tried to drive hybrid or electric cars?
No I don't, but I'll be glad to try.

Do you want to have such type of car?
Of course, and I even planing to acquire such car in future.
Filip Sawicki said…
I think that electric cars is the future of motorization and we’ll se less and less petrol cars as the time goes on. No unfortunately I haven’t but I’ve seen many on streets. What is quite surprising is that they are so quiet to such an extent that it can be dangerous to walk on the street. Yes of course I’d like to have electric car, there are many benefits ranging from ecology to using bus lanes or reduced price of parking tickets.
Electric cars are what should have become of carmaking industry years ago. Instead of using some middleage technology of burning substances, polluting air and enriching ground drilling economies, we could make not polluting technological cars. I do not have driving license and not really going to get one soon. If i am going to get a car it would be an electric one, just hope to that time there will be enough charging stations.
Kristina Moroz said…
What do you think about electric cars?
I think this is the future and I love it. Electric cars are green and easier in use.

Have you ever tried to drive hybrid or electric cars?
I don't have driven license, so I haven't got an opportunity to drive hybrid or even electric cars. But I totally want to try.

Do you want to have such type of car? Yes, of course. Tesla is a little bit expensive but there are a lot of another good and cheaper options.

What do you think about electric cars?
I think electric cars are inevitable in cars manufacturing but I'm not a fan of them.
I love the sound of V8...
Have you ever tried to drive hybrid or electric cars?
Yes, I drove few hybrid cars and driving experience is the same as normal car, the only difference are sound, acceleration and fuel consumption.
Do you want to have such type of car?
Nope.
I am really like electric cars! I believe that this is the best invention in recent times. They are really can improve our life and the ecology around us. But while corporations and countries make big money in the oil market, they will not give electric cars to develop! Yes, electric cars are expensive, but saving on gasoline will very quickly pay off big expenses for buying the car. Unfortunately, I have never tested an electric car.
I would like to have a similar car, perhaps in the future with sufficient zeal, I can afford it.
I think in near future electric car will be main part of our life instead of extra :) But at this time while infrastructure is not so good it will be on second place.
Yes, I think hybrid is our now time but in future we will be use electric cars I think.
Yes, magic time right now :)
Yes, quiet is positive and negative side of this cars but some companies decided to imitate sound of car or any other.
Yes, charging station must grow as mushrooms after rain.
I believe that Tesla became much more cheaper soon so we will be able to buy it :)
I have never drive electrical or hybrid car on my own but I hope it will be unforgettable experience. People who drive one told me a lot of stories about its hilarious momentum and 0-100 acceleration. To my mind electrical cars will be the dominating ones in the future. The amount of petrol and diesel is limited but people did manage to produce electrical energy and the problem of global warming is getting more and more serious each year. That's why I think that electrical cars will be in almost every single driver as their main car.

Of course I would like to have one. Such combination of acceleration consumption and price is definitely for me. The only thing that I miss in such cars is sound. You can always generate such sound that petrol cars have but you won't be able to make your brain believe in it.
As much as economic and comfortable to drive electric cars will never take over as long as we have any oil to come by on earth. Thats my opinion. I like Tesla vision, i like how they try to change the way we commute i dont really like the big damn screen in the middle but i understand its concept but ill never say i wish i was driving an electric car as long as powerfull normal cars exist they are just too much fun.
I mena having an electric car for daily use would be great but if i had to choose "one" im not giving up my fun from driving an conventional car for that.
Oh gosh, im dreaming about tesla model 3. I think the desing is awesome and whole idea that comes behind tesla is huge. I have never drove a fully electric car but i think i wont mind the difference. Ive watched many videos how it is to have tesla as daily car even in poland and still i hope ill get one of those. But for model X, blah its aweful. Sure Features are cool, but i dont like its design.
Unknown said…
Electric cars are the future. I like tesla but only the S model. Tesla Model X is terrible. I have not seen this new model yet. I've never driven a hybrid car. I wanted to buy a hybrid, but when I saw the price, I gave it up. The burning that they give us is cheated. I checked the new Audi a3 E-tron that burned 2l in reality burned 8l and costs 180,000 zlotys. For this price you can have a really good car and a bigger one that will have the same or less burned.
Marcin Górski said…
I think that electric car is a good solution but I have never tried it. It can be our future! I have read about that a lot but I'm still waiting for my first ride. Do I want to have such type of car? Yes, of course! Nowadays, it's too expensive for me but I hope that one day Tesla cars will be for daily use.
Patryk Górski said…
What do you think about electric cars?

I'm quite hyped about them, but I think that we need some time to introduce them in our country. For example, we don't have a lot of chargers for them, especially in a smaller cities. Also, when we have the charger, it's usually already taken by another electric car, or it charges so slow, that it's better for you to find another one.

Have you ever tried to drive hybrid or electric cars?

I've tried hybrid cars. It's a weird feeling, when you are driving slowly they're making almost no sound :D

Do you want to have such type of car?

In the future - yes, but only when the technology of the batteries will be better.
Unknown said…
I like the idea of electric cars and I am in love with Tesla design. I hope in the nearest future people will drive only electric cars and I wish I would have one. I have never tried to drive it, but I think it depends on the model - some could be real boring, but Tesla is a real bolide, you may not even feel that it is electric, because that car is fast and it's a pleasure to drive it, I think. Electric cars are our future, for sure.
Unknown said…
What do you think about electric cars?
I think that they are very interesting choice. Maybe not Teslas, but BMW i8 is great!

Have you ever tried to drive hybrid or electric cars?
No, I were not given a chance, but I'll love to.

Do you want to have such type of car?
Yeah, as I said before - I love BMW i8!
Tesla P100D will be also great ;).
Peter Clemenza said…
First of all Tesla and his owner Elon Musk is a wet dream of young millennials who have faith in a lot of fake-ass projects that keeps on running on a stockholders money.

What do you think about electric cars?
The capacity of accumulators is still too low to consider it to

Have you ever tried to drive hybrid or electric cars?
No, but i have been driving on a alcohol when I was riding on a bike while being drunk. Does it count?

Do you want to have such type of car?
I don't have a car! That's a point of being eco-freak

Electric cars may be the future of travelling. Without pollution of the environment, we can move to different places. Nowadays the pollution caused by petrol or diesel cars is way too big. I think if electric cars were cheaper more people would buy it. I have never had an opportunity to drive such a car, but I wish I had. I was wondering about hybrid when I was buying a car but finally I decided to buy diesel. Hybrid was just too expensive to handle it. That is the main problem for casual person. Second problem is that there are just a few places where I could load electric car even if I live in the capitol of Poland. Until it is not solved people will buy petrol cars as I did

Week 12 (12.01-18.01.15) Are you an early bird or a night owl ?

Owls are nocturnal creatures. They’re wide awake at night and they sleep during the day. If this sounds like bliss to you, then, like about 20 percent of the population who find themselves most active at around 9 pm, you may fall into the same category as our feathered friend. Night owls often have difficulty waking up in the morning, and like to be up late at night.  Studies of animal behaviour indicate that being a night owl may actually be built into some people’s genes. This would explain why those late-to-bed, late-to-rise people find it so difficult to change their behaviour. The trouble for night owls is that they just have to be at places such as work and school far too early. This is when the alarm clock becomes the night owl’s most important survival tool. Experts say that one way for a night owl to beat their dependence on their alarm clocks is to sleep with the curtains open. The Theory is that if they do so, the morning sunlight will awaken them gently and natura...

Week 11 [03-09.06.2019] The problem with ecological cars emission in UK

The problem with ecological cars emission in UK Since the adoption of the European Emission Allowance Directive in the European Parliament, all car makers have tried to submit. Since 1992, the Euro I standard has been in force, which limited the emission of carbon monoxide to the atmosphere. The Euro VI standard currently applies, which limits the series of exhaust gases. These include: hydrocarbons, nitrogen and carbon oxides, and dust.   The most significant change was brought by the Euro IV standard. For the first time it introduced the limitation of nitrogen oxides, which are responsible for the harmful compounds of smog.   What is smog?   Smog consists of sulfur oxides, nitrogen and carbon. In addition, solid substances such as suspended dust (PM). Dust suspend in atmospheric aerosols may be in liquid and solid form. These can be particles of sea salt, clouds from the Sahara and artificial compounds made by people. These compounds...
