![]() With the Model X, Tesla put a lot of effort into developing a more powerful air filtering system in order to not only contribute to the reduction of local air pollution with electric vehicles but also to reduce the direct impact of air pollution on the occupants of its vehicles. ![]() One of Tesla’s goals is to improve overall quality by accelerating the adoption of electric vehicles, but Tesla owners who are doing their part should also enjoy good air quality in their own cars. Tesla has put a lot of emphasis on the air quality inside its vehicles. Tesla released step-by-step instructions, which includes removing some panels and screws, as well as a gif: Some things, like replacing cabin filters are a little more intricate and would have generally been handled by the service center. Most of the procedures consist of fairly simple maintenance or troubleshooting: Only perform a procedure if you feel comfortable doing so, and always follow all provided instructions.” “Tesla owners who wish to perform basic procedures or maintenance on their vehicle can do so without having to schedule a Service appointment. The automaker says that owners could avoid having to go to service centers: Now Tesla is also releasing a series of new instructions for ‘Do It Yourself’ procedures for Model 3 vehicles. Last year, Tesla released the parts catalog for Model 3, Model S, Model X and Roadster to the public. Over the last few years, Tesla has said that it’s working on opening up its service tools and helping owners repair their own cars, but we haven’t seen much evidence of that - though things have been slowly moving in the right direction. ![]() “In the future, we will also process other intermediate lithium feedstocks, including those from recycled batteries & manufacturing scrap.Tesla has released new ‘Do It Yourself’ maintenance procedure instructions to help owners work on their own cars. “Instead, the byproduct is a mixture of sand & calcium carbonate-a viable additive in the production of construction materials, allowing us to make use of this waste stream. “This facility will also prioritize the elimination of a challenging refinery byproduct (sodium sulfate). “Increasing lithium refining capacity is critical to a sustainable energy economy-today, we’re breaking ground on our in-house lithium refinery outside of Corpus Christi, TX. Here’s the shorter summary of what this entails, according to Tesla: The lithium refinery is in Texas, and you can watch the full groundbreaking ceremony below (via Twitter, of course). Probably the bigger news from Tesla is that it has broken ground on a lithium refinery. Can it rise to #1 in the world in 2023? Tesla Model Y Leads Global EV Sales Volumes The Model Y is already the best selling electric vehicle in the world, and in 2022 it was the 3rd best selling automobile of any kind (fueled by gas, electricity, or leprechaun charms). However, presumably, Tesla is continuing to ramp up production there and the number will be higher by the end of the year. ![]() If you extrapolate for the full year, 5,000 a week means 260,000 Model Y a year - just from Giga Texas. Giga Texas achieves production of 5k Model Y/week /WwZrv3CYaeįirst of all, Tesla announced a few hours ago that it has reached production of 5,000 Model Y electric SUVs a week at Giga Texas, it’s large and growing factory just outside of Austin, Texas. (Unfortunately, there’s bigger news out of Texas this week, but that’s not our topic of focus.) The big news on both fronts this week comes from The Lone Star State. It has also just broken ground on a lithium refinery project. To keep up with its almost constantly growing sales, Tesla has been ramping up Model Y production at sites around the world. ![]()
