Tesla Motors has a prototype of a new electric-powered car, the Model X, will be presented. The zevenpersoons vehicle will get a 17″touch screen with most likely features of a 3g connection, hd-picture and satellite radio.
The buyer of a Model X can choose from three different accupakketten with a capacity of 60 or 85kWh. The range is due to Tesla not known, but with Model S Model X about 60 percent of the components share, is this between 225km and 450km. Due to the fact that Model X is about ten percent heavier than the Model S expected Tesla that a rider about ten percent less far away will be able to come on a full battery.
Despite the higher weight, it would be the prototype despite this, in less than five seconds from 0 to 100km/h, accelerate, claims the manufacturer according to the New York Times. In addition, there would be a Performance variant that provides even better performance.
Because there are two small electric motors inside that separate the front and rear wheels steer, there is more room in the chassis. This is not only on the back, but also under-the-hood space for a trunk. Model X has also been called the ‘Falcon Wings’ or ‘Gull Wing’ doors which are vertically upwards in the open. Unlike many other prototypes, it is intended that this is also their way will find it to the production stage.
The production of Model X in late 2013 and the first models are likely to be at the beginning of 2014 delivered. The starting price would be in line with that of Model: 49.900 dollars after deduction of tax, converted 37.600 euro.
