Tesla's entire product lineup consists of pure electric vehicles. Tesla is an American electric vehicle and energy company that manufactures electric cars, solar panels, and energy storage equipment. Elon Musk joined the company in 2004, led its initial round of financing, and became its chairman, naming the company Tesla. Currently, Tesla offers three models: the Model Y, Model X, and Model S, all of which are pure electric vehicles. The main component of a Tesla is its battery, which is composed of 7,000 individual 18650 cells, with a total weight exceeding 900 kilograms. It has a maximum power output of 85 kWh and a range of 440 km. However, Tesla's motor and motor system are distinct concepts, eliminating the wear and tear associated with components like lubricants, clutches, and belts. Unlike fuel-powered car engines, the degradation of power batteries is irreversible, necessitating battery replacement when needed. In the field of new energy vehicles, Tesla excels in both aesthetics and performance, boasting outstanding technological maturity, stability, and durability. Additionally, Tesla provides users with high charging efficiency through its dedicated charging stations.

As an ordinary person who loves studying automotive technology, let me tell you that Tesla is definitely an electric vehicle, with its full name being electric car, because it's powered by batteries and electric motors. There's no internal combustion engine - just plug it in to charge and you're ready to go, with lightning-fast acceleration and super quiet operation. From what I've read, Tesla's battery pack design is quite advanced, like the new 4680 battery cells which have high energy density and can deliver 500-600 kilometers of range. However, range may drop in cold winter conditions and requires some preheating. Regarding charging, home slow charging takes overnight, while fast charging stations can replenish most of the battery in about half an hour - slightly slower than refueling but much more economical. For maintenance, don't go to regular repair shops as there's no engine oil to change; the focus is on electrical systems and software checks. If you're considering buying one, the driving experience is exceptionally smooth - the only thing to watch out for is charging planning. Overall, the technology keeps advancing, and Tesla leads in both safety and performance.

Starting an idle car for 10 minutes a week is sufficient. Occasional starting: This not only allows the engine to charge the battery but also checks for any abnormal engine phenomena. It also ensures that various fluids are fully agitated, providing better lubrication for the engine and preventing tire deformation due to prolonged unilateral pressure. Disconnect the negative terminal: If the vehicle needs to be parked for an extended period and there is no time for regular starting, the negative terminal of the battery can be disconnected to prevent excessive power drain. Regular maintenance: Many people believe that as long as the car is not driven, the engine oil remains unaffected. In reality, engine oil degrades over time.
