[Music] all right uh thanks for coming and thanks for tuning in with plaid we've managed to break the uh the two second barrier if you will the no production car has ever done 0-60 in under two seconds in addition to uh it's a crazy performance it's also got a longer range even with the tri-motor high performance it's got almost a 400 mile range and in the dual motor configuration it's got a 412 mile range and we've also improved the supercharging speed so you can get 187 miles of range in 15 minutes in terms of additional stats uh it's also the the fastest production car to complete a quarter mile so 9.23 seconds uh it's got a 200 mile an hour top speed uh a thousand over a thousand horsepower almost 400 mile range like i said uh charges uh so fast uh you know it'll be probably done by the time you have a coffee basically uh we have an all-new battery pack um and then something we're really proud of is the new carbon sleeved rotors for the motor and this is it's single speed from zero to 200 miles an hour i mean you can pick this motor up with your hands and and it can accelerate a two ton car to 60 miles an hour in two seconds it goes up to 20 000 rpm and maybe a little more we also were able to achieve the lowest drag coefficient of any car ever made we also have the latest and greatest in heat pump which is the basically hvac system for the car it's 30 better cold weather range and requires 50 less energy for cabin heating and freezing conditions and the radiator is twice as big for heat rejection so you'll be able to actually do back-to-back 0-60s go on the track just whole ass and as you'll see tonight this car is going to do over and over again and it doesn't get winded and then it's it's also engineered for maximum safety as well so we think we can get the the lowest probability of injury of any car ever tested and then the design we've obviously made a lot of refinements to the exterior and and then we've made we've completely redone the interior as you can see we changed the orientation of the main screen so it's easier to watch movies and that kind of thing um in landscape in other notes we have ventilated front seats um we have the this yolk steering wheel which is a little different but i think once you try it you'll think this is it's great the visibility of the the main screen is super clear especially for uh autopilot so you can see the entire panoramic view like you know i think generally all input is error so we want if you have to do something that the car could have done already that should be taken care of the software should just do it so you can actually just literally walk up to the car it senses that you're approaching unlocks the car based on your phone it just basically pairs with your phone knows that you're coming to the car opens the door it opens extends the handle you sit down and you just drive you don't you don't have to uh press the drive or anything like that the car knows you want to drive it will just keep minimizing the amount of input that you need to do until the car just reads your mind so it's gonna be great uh we've redesigned the the remove the interior so that the front ip is actually uh slimmer and thinner so we were able to move the uh the front seats forward giving more room to the vaccine and we reclaim the back seat more and reduce the interior trim dual inductive charges for your phones in the back and dual inductive in the in the front similar to the model 3 and why we instead of having air vents we use intersecting uh columns of air so and we just vary the the speed of the air and then the 17 inch touchscreen is it feels like a movie theater the the sound is incredible we have an all new uh sound system designed by tesla audio um with uh and we have acoustic glass throughout the car so the car is very quiet when going down the highway even at very high speeds like you're like doing like 100 miles an hour still quiet and then we've got an all-new ui so so anyway the uis like basically easy to move around uh expand contract uh shift music to the left to the right um and we're gonna keep improving it so uh it basically feels like a like a modern tablet or phone and then uh it's not ps not ps4 ps5 it can play cyberpunk so the i think this really illustrates the difference it maintains uh a thousand horsepower all the way up to 200 miles an hour all right and deliveries begin now so we're we're in production uh we're going to deliver the first 25 cars now and uh and then basically we should be at uh you know several hundred cars per week soon and a thousand cars a week probably next quarter my hat is off to tesla engineering production design the whole the whole the whole group uh they really put their uh heart and soul into this so uh hope hope you enjoy it so let's deliver some cars
