Unparalleled True Technology

Chapter 182: End and Expectation

The statement that Jeremy hates touch screens did not dissatisfy anyone, including Wen Ming.

Because this is only a subjective shortcoming, it will not have any impact on Tesla's future sales. Now that we have decided to use a full touch screen, we must give up those consumers who like physical buttons. At this time, there is really no way to have both.

If it is forced to have both, it will make the center console of model-s nondescript.

"Before I start testing the car's cruising range and acceleration time from 100 kilometers, I need to test a few other functions first."

Jeremy said to the camera: "To be honest, I don't think these few functions are useful. After all, for an old driver like me, the driving experience with full control is the most real and the ability to attracted me."

After saying this, Jeremy lightly stepped on the accelerator, allowing the model-s he was driving to enter the parking area of ​​the test track, but he did not directly let the vehicle go inside the standard parking line, but It was very casually parked at the side of the parking line.

"Yes, the reason why I stopped here is to verify the automatic parking function of model-s. To be honest, I think this function should not exist in the car, because it can't even park well, so why still What about driving?"

In the shot, after Jeremy finished complaining, he issued an order to Siri to start automatic parking, and the camera in the car was already aimed at the large central control screen. At the same time, a picture taken from outside the vehicle appeared on the projection screen at the press conference.

It can be seen from the picture outside the car, behind the transparent front windshield, Jeremy is sitting in the driver's seat, raising his hands high.

Jeremy's voice can also be heard: "They made me raise my hands like surrender, what the hell, I think my appearance fee is a bit low today."

In the picture inside the car, a panoramic image around the model-s appears on the central control screen. In 2010, this technology was absolutely rare among the rare.

Jeremy raised his hands and exclaimed: "It's so clear? However, since there is such a clear reversing image, and it is panoramic, why do we need the automatic parking function? This kind of reversing image appeared, my primary school kids can put their car in the garage."

At this time, no one paid any attention to Jeremy's complaints, because the audience at the press conference were all attracted by the movements of the model-s. Obviously, Jeremy in the driver's seat raised his hands high, while the passenger in the co-pilot was The cameraman is carrying a video camera.

But,

The model-s outside the parking line moved relatively slowly but methodically.

It was as if there was an old driver in the car and started to back into the garage. The car moved forward, found the correct position and angle, turned the wheel and reversed. In minutes, Jeremy was driving, no, it was the model he was riding in— s, it has already parked in the parking line very standard.

Jeremy put his hands down on the driving seat, and said helplessly: "Okay, let's start another stage of testing of the automatic parking technology."

And another paragraph?

The audience at the press conference were curious, and Jeremy drove the model-s to another area of ​​the parking lot, where two Teslas had been parked side by side in the parking space. However, the parking of the two cars was not standard, which made the parking space between the two Tesla cars extremely narrow. If the car was parked in, people would not open the door and get out of the car.

Jeremy parked the Model-S he was driving in front of the two Teslas and got out at the same time as the cameraman.

"If this function can really be realized, I think I will also like this automatic parking function. Even if I like the feeling of driving myself."

Jeremy, who got out of the car, took out an iPhone under the lens of the cameraman, and then opened a Tesla T-logging software.

"They said that this is a piece of software specially designed for Tesla, which can start Tesla cars remotely and turn on the air conditioning function in advance. Of course, this is abnormal whether it is used in summer or winter."

"However, what we are going to test today is not this function, because this function is actually not new. What we are going to test is the automatic parking function that comes with it."

Under the camera, Jeremy pressed the button on the iPhone, the Tesla-specific transfer auto-parking button, and then, the empty Model-S started to move.

After a near-perfect move, the model-s parked between the two Tesla cars without any scratches.

There were exclamations again at the conference site. Many people will encounter this situation while driving. Some people parked in a good parking space because some people parked substandardly, so they could drive in, but they couldn’t get out of the car.

And now, this problem is solved.

Jeremy's performance, or the performance of model-s, is not over yet. At this time, model-s has turned off after completing the automatic parking.

And Jeremy began to demonstrate the remote start function he just mentioned, not only starting the car, but also using the automatic parking technology to let the model-s parked in the gap run out by itself.

The exclamation sounded again, and after Jeremy got into the model-s, the audience could see that when Jeremy started the car, the air conditioner had been turned on according to his command.

Full of sense of technology, this adjective model—s really deserves its name.

Many people at the press conference had this feeling in their hearts. However, this is not the end.

"The merging assist system allows us to avoid accidents even if we are negligent during driving."

"These systems are integrated into the collision avoidance warning system by Tesla. If there are obstacles or pedestrians in front of the vehicle, then the model-s with this system enabled will forcibly Cut the power and apply emergency braking. In other words, in this car, it is very difficult for you to hit someone even if you want to."

In order to demonstrate this system, Jeremy stood on the road in a very crazy manner, and then asked others to drive the model-s to him.

"I personally came to experiment with this system because Tesla bought me an accident insurance worth 300 million U.S. dollars. So, audiences, please don't imitate it easily."

The model-s drove towards Jeremy at a speed of 70 yards. When it was 8 meters away from Jeremy, the model-s made a harsh sound, which was the sound of the tires rubbing against the ground after emergency braking.

At the same time, on the projection screen at the press conference, the picture under the driver's seat also appeared.

In the picture, the driver does not put his foot on the brake, but on the accelerator.

The model—s stopped in front of Jeremy, and there was warm applause at the press conference. All the audience, whether they were industry professionals or not, stood up and applauded.

Afterwards, the mileage test and charging time test conducted by Jeremy were all completed in fast-forward playback.

In fact, these latter evaluations are irrelevant, because the cruising range and charging time are the last things to be faked.

"After I finished this period of evaluation, I hope that Tesla can give me this model-s. Of course, I am not trying to rob Tesla, but I hope that I can use my appearance fee in exchange for this car." A model—s."

Jeremy said at the end of the video: "As we all know, my appearance fee is actually very high, and although this model—s is a top match, it can't deduct my appearance fee at all. But my request was rejected Now, can you imagine?"

"Well, in fact, I still don't like this car very much. At most, after it goes on the market, I will buy one and keep it at home as a collection."

No one cares about Jeremy's feelings anymore. All the audience are wondering how much this car sells for and when they can buy it.

After the evaluation video is over, it is also the end of the press conference.

Wen Ming returned to the center of the stage and said to the audience: "This is all the functions of the new pure electric four-door coupe model-s launched by Tesla. We Tesla strives to create new energy vehicles. At the same time, create a truly high-tech car. In the near future, Tesla will definitely be the first company to launch a truly driverless car."

After people are amazed, there must be a goal that people look forward to. This is the operation of the product launch conference.
