- Oct. 10 (Bloomberg) -- Elon Musk, chief executive officer of Tesla Motors Inc., takes Bloomberg's Betty Liu for a test drive of the Tesla Model P85D, including using the car's autopilot feature.

Bloomberg Television offers extensive coverage and analysis of international business news and stories of global importance. It is available in more than 310 million households worldwide and reaches the most affluent and influential viewers in terms of household income, asset value and education levels. With production hubs in London, New York and Hong Kong, the network provides 24-hour continuous coverage of the people, companies and ideas that move the markets.
I am not trying to bash on anyone but, could Bloomberg have sent someone who is less interested in this technology to cover this? This woman shows no joy in the tech inside the car and what it's actually doing. 2:33 "and I've seen that a few times" come on.
She was acting as a reporter trying to get information on features. The demo was done over and over again for the press, and she was being told what anybody who had seen the demo already knew. I didn't get much information, but then again I don't need to see a cheerleader either.
To be fair, she's probably a bit intimidated by Elon's technical knowledge and wanted to show that she's not completely unable to keep up. (That she understands what's going on)
Bloomberg is all about the benjamins. Her job is to figure out whether or not people should invest money in TSLA, which has gone up 524% in the past two years. The only performance they care about is stock performance.
Also, she seemed to enjoy the ride.
Yea that comment was dense as fuck. Show some appreciation asian lady, you're sitting next to a genius.
That is taking it too far, guys give it a break she makes mistakes like you and me.
"what technology is in this car?" - ALL THE TECHNOLOGIES!!! :D
+Pete Molkenthin hahahahahah
I am buying this car over a Porsche 911 Turbo!
Good stuff! Nothing in the automotive world is as exciting as tesla right now! I just ordered one last night but I'm keeping my gt3. But it definitely makes the p car feel outdated.....
Was your choice really between a Turbo and a P85D? No comparison whatsoever. Turbo is faster and more than double the price.
I do not know what country you are from, but in the US, the Turbo is only a 30 grand more for a base price comparison. I own many other sport cars and luxury/sport sedans. I can choose to get another luxury sedan over a sports car and still have plenty in my stable. I just want this car since it is quite a leap for electric cars and a move towards self driven cars. Motors have so much more potential than engines. BTW 0-60 in the Turbo is slower than the P85D, only the Turbo S can match it.
good choice. we ordered a tesla model s aswell. best car ever.
mathlover101hotmail The other benefit is it's a four seater vs 2 for the Porsche. Just saying.
Did I see a second of worry on Elon's expression when he first floored the accelerator and nothing happened because the car was on park? ;)
I hate that she said she's seen it a few times like it's no big deal. I'm still in awe and I've seen it a few times as well haha.
Andrew Bow Yea she didn't appeciate it at all.
That acceleration is insane! Love it and the new features added. Made the car worth more. I admire this man a lot.
Absolutely amazing. I feel Elon Musk is doing more than any other single person alive to bring the world into the future.
Tesla is like Apple and Google
BMW and Mercedes is like Nokia
I know what you mean, but the logic is not fully there...
just look at all the management people who work at mercedes and bmw. they are all over 50 years old. all the tesla management is young.
Ah! That angle makes more sense
Actually although the Model S and X has Google technology inside Elon Musk basicly said he didn't like Google and last time I checked he was looking to move in an Apple direction which I think is a shame as Google is better than Apple in every respect in my opinion. Anyway, a while ago he liked both.
Does Tesla even show a profit? What sort of sales would be required for their production to be in line with market cap? When the market crashes expect Tesla to go bankrupt.
How the car accelerated and how it sounds is awesome !
The Future Brought to you by Elon Musk !
He's so cute when he says "it braked by itself by the way".
That part where the guys in the back seat slide over always gets me 😂
Elon Musk = Future Bond villain
Looks like Elon pulled an all-nighter at the airport. Wearing the same clothes from the presentation the night before at the same location.
Probably filed before the presentation.
I choked when she said " What Technology is in here ? " LOL
All I ever wanted was an automatic car that was promised to me in the 1980's... drop you off to go shopping then parks itself. Call it and it picks you up wherever you are...drives you home from the bar when you're drunk or sleepy. Picks the kids up from school. A 100yrs from now a history teacher will try to explain to his students how early man once manually manipulated cars and portable computing devices. ......And the students will gasp at the thought.

richystar2001 You have to use your hands... that's like a babies Toy.
There should always be a demand for manually-operated cars - in particular motorsport. There'll always be those who either love driving too much, or those who live down roads that you simply wouldn't trust to an AI, no matter how advanced.
What would you say if an AI drove faster than any driver alive. And was capable of winning any race without fail.
Be careful what you wish for. What happens when you owe back taxes or do not comply with big government? No more free movement for you. 100% digital = slavery.
Wow, now that is serious acceleration. Should be able to embarass a GT-R, at least off the line.

Not quite.
patrick drew Thanks for the info, I am aware of the stats. Real world, however, I believe the results will be surprising. Many are saying Tesla's 0-60 numbers are on the conservative side. Mind you, the P85D has almost 700 hp and torque available from 0 rpm! While the GT-R driver fiddles with launch control and bringing up revs and boost, the Tesla will be gone.
G8GTJav I speculate the new gt-r would be a hybrid like porsche 918 and have even better 0-60 times. Note that the gt-r has had low 3 second times ever since it has launched and has gotten better every year to a 2.9s currently if i recall correctly.
um what? dude... you realize this isn't even a car, but a driverless taxi
patrick drew Atleast Telas won't need to replace a new transmission every time you use Launch Control.
I think her last question is quite valid. Where I live, birds and animals are often walking into the road and dicking around. If I'm being tailgated real closely at 60 mph, I increase the gap to the vehicle in front to give myself plenty of time to brake gradually if need be; to avoid being rear-ended. If I have to emergency stop, then so be it, I have to.
BUT if it's just some stupid squirrel in the road and I make the mental decision that stopping for it (which we're not even supposed to do) would cause more problems than just carrying on, I wouldn't want the car slamming on the anchors and getting me rear-ended just because of a stupid squirrel.
this can easily be implemented as a squirrel filter in the software
An auto-pilot system would be able to make this decision in a better way then a human ever could because it could actually calculate in real-time things like mass and velocities. It would know that if it slowed down at a certain rate that a rear collision would occur. This is even more important when humans are involved because a lot of human drivers some times tend to lock up or freeze when faced with difficult decisions, this is why anti-locking brakes were created.
Most people who don't believe in automated driving attempt to bring up impossible scenarios that no human could deal with either as a way of invalidating automated systems. The problem is automated systems can do things that humans can't for instance calculating velocities in real-time to avoid getting t-boned by someone running a red light.
***** And next, your car tells you "Sorry Dave, I am not letting you inside. You disgust me, I refuse to drive you anywhere".
*****
you would trust your life and familys life to the brain of a machine you are fucking nuts
Yeah when my 02 Honda Civic ECU went out on the freeway, I almost got rear ended by a Semi truck when I lost power and had to coast to the side of the freeway. Good luck controlling this thing when the same thing happens, some of them want to remove the steering wheels from the cars all together. Some cars with Electric Steering Assist have been known to have issues of Steering Wheel Lock up so you can not turn the wheel even if you lost power. Acura has a car that has the OLD fashioned steering gear backup in case the Electric Steering computer fails you can still steer the car. It is a new Safety Feature they need to advertise more often.
"Look mom, no hands!"
F**king amazing. I love how calm Elon is :-)
Lol the girl in the passenger seat is nodding her head acting like she understands what he is saying.
Why did they need the camera team in the back, when the GoPro on the dashboard gives the best shots?
They just really wanted to be there for the ride...
The guy's reaction in the back seat was great.
dude is so damn calm!
I love the Tesla Model S! It's just so cutting edge cool, ecologically practical, plain smooth! In our most sincerest thoughts, Tesla will supply the world with a new generation of electric nonpolluting
vehicles affordable to everyone. After all can we afford to not go electric & solar!
Really impressed with this electric car - I was always naively given the impression that electric cars were incapable of reaching this type of performance. I can see a bright future ahead for Tesla.
He may be the coolest guy that's ever lived. He's like a super hero.
He seems like the kind of guy you could meet at the pub ,and he would talk cars all night ,I wish tesla well ,there has never been a car company to shake up the status quo so much so quickly
I like how he ignored her dumb questions and gave some good info about the car.
drinking and driving has a whole new concept
This is hilarious from a production standpoint, lose the two man cam crew and get a GoPro, lol.
I want to bring Betty Liu for a ride in my 2007 Saturn Ion!
2.4 liter, 175 hp....whaddaya think Betty Liu?
I think the main problem with car autopilot systems is that the the traffic networks are not enclosed systems, which means that at any time, anything unexpected, outside of the normal driving parameters can occur. This is where a human driver makes the difference, between a human which is paying attention to his environment all the time, can observe things that are likely about to happen.
A human can spot other drivers that are driving erratically, they can spot pedestrians on the ground which are not paying attention or are about to jump in front of the car, and so on.
An autopilot can do a better job at actual driving than the human itself, however, the autopilot does not have an instinct, it cannot predict what other traffic participants are going to do, which I think is a major problem with fully implementing autopilots in the near future, at least within the current traffic grid.
A good driver, with good instincts and awareness, will be able to anticipate and avoid potential accidents before they happen, this is something an autopilot will never be able to do.
Practically, the only way we'll be able to fully trust autopilots with driving would be on a traffic grid specifically created for auto-piloted vehicles, think Minority Report. You need two things, you need the roadway to be fully enclosed so that nothing except cars will ever be on the road, and the second condition is for all cars which drive on that roadway to be autopilot driven. So basically in order for a fully automated driving environment to function safely, you need to fully remove the human element from it, no pedestrians, no human drivers.
Obviously meeting these two essential conditions is relatively hard. I guess we can start by building dedicated highways for autopilot only driving. Since highways are already relatively enclosed, it would be easiest just to consolidate a highway's enclosure (make it more restrictive and secure), and then only allow autopilot cars on them.
Then as time passes and transition to EC progresses, at some point all highways will be autopilot only, which will greatly speed up long distance traffic. However, in order for all this traffic to be absorbed you'll also need to have autopilot traffic grids inside cities, otherwise all that traffic from the highways will get choked up in city entrances.
The problem with cities is that they are already built, and they are built bad, it would be impossible to convert current city traffic infrastructure to the conditions required by the autopilot grid. So you can convert the existing infrastructure into parks and pedestrian walkways (eco way, and much more expensive) and then you create a layer of suspended roads above the ground (this will go well with the future urban development since as time passes we build taller and taller buildings, so instead of driving the car to the ground level and then going 200 floors up, you'll drive it at level 100 and then only have to go 100 floors up or down), but this is already very high-tech and very expensive stuff.
A cheaper and much more realistic approach would be to just double up all roads by building another road above them. Then, instead of having two lanes cramped up next to each other, you'll have two one-way dedicated lanes, on top of each other. This will give you the space needed to fully enclose the lanes and since they will be one-way and autopilot only, it will give you that extra traffic flow speed. Obviously doing this would also allow for more pedestrian space around the new stacked one-lane roads, which can be used as green space or wider sidewalks, which will benefit and enable future individual transport technologies like electric bikes, segways, hoverboards or whatever the future brings.
Yes I like my comments nice and big!
GoodGameHunter WTF did I just read? LOL
Anticipatory flinch at 1:36. Oops, gotta put it in drive first.
+Philip Fox lol right
This dude is so chilled
I think the reporter just didn't understand a word.... LOL
"mitigate the impact velocity" I doubt the reporter knows what that phrase means.
Undder
@3:00 I did propose the crash bag years ago.There would be air bags that proximity sensors would activate in the front (and if necessary rear) of the vehicle to mitigate the damage to both parties (imagine an air bumper)..
The air bag(s) would cushion the impact to living things especially and thus reduce injury.
Insurance companies should like this feature.

SwisssBolla Yup, Volvo's got that.
That new model with the autopilot is something else. Wow future scifi tech, in an electric car that moves like a F1
this is like one of the most friendliest CEO
The problem with Tesla's that have been crashed lately, the owner's assume you can PUNCH IT when you're already doing 60mph on the freeway. This only works from a standing start. If you did this while you are already going 60mph you would hand your ass to your hand and end up in a ditch or worse. Only Formula 1 driver's would be good enough to recover and then you would need something like an Airport Runway to save your ass.
Seeing him just let go of the steering wheel. That is so AWESOME.
the facial expression of the guy in the back at 1:40 lol
she sounds like a weird person. the car cant do impossible things lol
That launch is just scary... nothing like linear torque, the gap between ICE and electric keeps widening.
Everyones gonna be driving one of these soon
What is wrong with this reporter? Elon shows off some pretty damn impressive features like autopilot and she has no reaction. Maybe Bloomberg should have given a dude to cover this story, he might appreciated it more. I was excited to see the acceleration from my computer desk! Great car Elon Musk!
You get a chance to ask Elon Musk basically any question, and they send this reporter.
Why in the hell would they bring that huge camera and not even publish this video on TH-cam in full HD ?!
Think about the insurance aspect of this car. If it was stolen you can locate it with your phone, also the possibility is there to disable the car from your phone.
Then with these autopilot systems coming down the line, we may live in a future where you cannot crash a car or run a red light. Many new things to reconsider in this digital world.
Elon should have been interviewed by a person that was knowledgeable about cars (particularly electric) . She didn't ask very intelligent questions. But this car is fucking incredible.
1:38 Oops! Forgot to put it in D. LOL
I love the moment he floored it and nothing happened haha
Despite all the pros and cons. Tesla truly brought electric car to a whole new level. From its comfort level and its performances, you could never found it from other electric vehicles. Some might say its overpriced, its not worth for over 100 grands. Its true that you could've so many options of choosing a nice car if you are willing to spend this much money. However, tesla model s is truly worth to buy it. Its so hard to describe how fun it is to drive a model s, especially when you realize this is a electric car. Its acceleration is absolutely incredible from 0 to 60. The car itself is quite heavy compare with others, but you won't able to feel any lags when you step the acceleration pedal. Overall, i think tesla model s is just like a first or second generation of iPhone. It changed the use of our cellphones into a new era. Its not the best yet of course, but you probably can imagine how tesla is going improve, develop and change over the next few years. I mean model s is not the first generation of electric car, yet its the best so far.
OMG.... Elon is my hero!
The tesla is good because it can decrease road kill if you agree like this comment
Super systém, fandím Tesla a už ho len vlastniť:)
Greener than a Prius. Faster than a Porsche Panamera.
Tesla and electric cars FTW!
I feel like my local news weatherman would have done a better job.
JUST AWESOME! NEXT YEAR, I GET MINE!
Beautiful. This thing is a showcase of engineering common sense.
The look on the woman's face says it all. While he's explaining the features of the car in detail, all she hears is, "Blah blah blah blah-blah, you see blah blah..."
This car is on fireeee
I hated every electric car or hybrid especially the Toyota Prius untill the introduction of the Tesla S. It looks like a Jaguar and drives even better....
Showing the world what can be done and how to do it.
Hilarious how Elon prepares for a fast acceleration at 1:37 then realizes he forgot to put the car in Drive.
"if you accelerating and its in auto pilot" too advance for her.
I may go-write a book: Tesla explained for dummies
the screen is nice the rest of the interior is ugly
We need this in South Africa Elon! Bring so paar huis toe man.
Mitigate the Impact velocity and reduce the damage! AKA for Betty... reduce the damage to my car from the item flying at my car!
My Biggest Fear: A hacker somehow reprograms the car so that when it is on autopilot and the radar is recognizing objects around it, the car accelerates toward the objects and not away from them. Isn't hacking a problem now with these new technologies or am I just stupid?
+C-Lux Of course it is. However you are actually surrounded by a lot of dangerous systems every day which could be hacked to cause you harm. Most of these systems don't have engineers who are a diligent as the ones at Tesla.
But yeah, of course it's a risk.
Imagine if Tesla makes a supercar! That will be insane!
She might as well have had a mouth full of marbles. Get someone with an engineering degree to ask him questions. Where's the halfway decent journalism ????!
+Sektion9 She's from Bloomberg - Business investors usually don't require a PhD in Mechanical engineering to understand how a company is doing.
Jayanth Kumar I'm guessing she didn't graduate at the top of her class in either business or journalism.
Sektion9 Even if she didn't - she has a job at Bloomberg, and is the one interviewing Elon. Say what you may about how she got there, she's there. It doesn't really matter that much. Did you see the CNBC debate? Wall Street is a different world.
Good point. Well it's off for another revolution of earth around the sun. Peace.
+Sektion9 Like she gives a shit about what you think, you ass!!
My new love Tesla!!!
That was nuts!!
Elon Musk. That's what I love to see, a person that gets rich by caring for the future. If only everyone was half of what he is.
She has a "I'm really dumb" look.
That guy behind the steering wheel sounds like Elton John..
Where is the rest of the video?
Elon !!! Your car is the best. I hope you can have your own Tesla financial bank. And it will sell like hot cake.
so all these massive cameras but they just use the gopro footage - makes sense
god the woman Bloomberg had for this is a complete dud
its a mobile-eye technology, I have same tech in my Genesis :)
Jeez the have a frickin telescope and film at like 240p
Having 2 induction motor redundancy isn't very relevant because if you take care of them they can last for 50 years anyway.
I feel really sorry for those roadster customers who bought the carbon fiber trim kits
The real question is:
HOW MANY PEOPLE WILL KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN a regular 60KWh and a P85D?
Most people won't even be able to distinguish this from a Jaguar XF.
All you really need to do is add the spoiler.
I just finished driving the P85D and aside from the need for AWD (for some buyers), the P85 is roughly the same.
Rather have a sleeper than to be a dbagger.
The TESLA model S is the ultimate sleeper.
Dead silent and they all look alike.
bigtruckseriesreview A Tesla is a sleek sexy sedan and looks like a Spaceship and the Jaguar looks like a generic boring sedan with death pipes
wheres the full vid?
And 10 months later, it's still not available in our Tesla's!
The whole issue of engineering or installing systems to assist drivers who are "distracted" or allows drivers to become complacent while driving bothers me.
i wonder if Saleen is going to build on this platform! since this cost $120 and their version of the p85 is $156 it should be a no brainer.
I wanna see the brakes in action
"what technology is in this car" ??
"Πlien Technology ""
Anyone else thinking the movie Demolition Man right now?
"Self drive, on."
I got a feeling the dual motor will solve tesla's problems with the motor breaking down from too much torque. With normal acceleration having only half the load on each motor it should leave to much longer life.
tf that guy with that camera haha
LOL, yes, that smile.
Awesome car!
A thorough Showman! Elon's charisma can be compared to Steve Jobs easily.
Waiting to hear about his Mars mission.
WAITING ON THE TESLA P85 T AS IN TRIPLE MOTOR ,,,,,,,.....
And so many people like me who would have actually enjoyed that little ride * _*
