今天(10月1日),特斯拉分享了一个关于新款特斯拉 Roadster 发布会的惊人消息。特斯拉官方账号发布了一段预告片,配文是“and go for launch”(准备发射),并公布了正式日期。这让主讲人想起了之前“一位名字有三个词的人”(some guy with three first names)发布的一篇帖子,他曾暗示此次发布会具有双重含义。
目前,在 tesla.com/roadster 网站上可以看到一个倒计时,在录音时显示为 18 天 20 小时 11 分 33 秒。该预告图被普遍认为是新款特斯拉 Roadster 的车尾,显示了四个向上倾斜的冷气推进器。主讲人预测这些推进器旨在迫使车辆紧贴地面以增加牵引力,并可能具有万向节功能。
主讲人确认这款车“显然”能够飞行,这意味着可能不仅仅只有车尾的四个冷气推进器。通过在 Photoshop 中处理预告图发现的一个彩蛋揭示了短语“where we're going we don't need roads”(我们去的地方不需要道路),这是对电影《回到未来》(Back to the Future)的引用,进一步暗示了该车的飞行能力。
冷气推进器的主要目的预计是实现“快得不可思议”的 0-60 英里/小时加速时间,主讲人强烈怀疑其加速时间将低于一秒。为了安全飞行和着陆,主讲人尽管不是工程师,但预测每个角(左前、左后、右前、右后)必须至少有四个额外的推进器,从而使总数可能达到 8-10 个推进器。这些额外的推进器可以实现垂直起降、悬停和长距离跳跃。
此外,这些向上指向的推进器,在产生向下力以增加牵引力的同时,也可以用于提高操控性和过弯速度。如果底盘推进器也具有万向节功能,它们可以通过喷射气体将车辆推入弯道,从而实现弯道处“令人难以置信的愚蠢速度”(unbelievably brain dead speeds)。推进器还可以用于大幅减速,使其成为制动最快的汽车。
主讲人预测新款特斯拉 Roadster 将是历史上加速最快、制动最快、过弯最快,并且是唯一一款会飞行的汽车。他们预计在发布会上会有一个“飞行/临时悬停演示”(flying slash temporary hovering demo),他们认为这将“极其疯狂”(batshit insane)和“不可思议”(bonkers)。
主讲人还指出,新款 Roadster 的设计自多年前首次亮相以来发生了变化,特别是冷气推进器的位置,之前它们似乎更靠近牌照下方。主讲人相信这次活动将是“史诗级的”,并使 Roadster 成为“有史以来最炫酷的车辆”(most badass vehicle of all time)。
主讲人还加入了对 AG1 (Athletic Greens) 的宣传信息,称其是他们半个十年来日常健康方案的一部分,强调其富含维生素、矿物质,支持能量、消化、免疫功能,以及含有益生元和益生菌。他们鼓励观众访问 drinkag1.com/smr 网站试用 AG1,以获取免费欢迎套装和旅行装。
Amazing news from Tesla was shared today, October 1st, regarding the launch of the new Tesla Roadster. The official Tesla account posted a teaser with the caption "and go for launch" and the official date. This reminded the speaker of a past post from "some guy with three first names" who suggested the launch event would have a double meaning.
Currently, on tesla.com/roadster, a countdown is visible, showing 18 days, 20 hours, 11 minutes, and 33 seconds at the time of recording. The teaser image is widely believed to be the rear of the new Tesla Roadster, featuring four cold gas thrusters angled upward. The speaker predicts these thrusters are designed to force the vehicle to hug the ground for traction, and potentially gimbal.
The speaker confirms the vehicle will "obviously" be able to fly, meaning there will likely be more than just the four rear cold gas thrusters. An Easter egg discovered by manipulating the teaser image in Photoshop reveals the phrase "where we're going we don't need roads," a "Back to the Future" reference, further hinting at the vehicle's flying capability.
The primary purpose of the cold gas thrusters is expected to be achieving an "impossibly quick" 0-60 mph time, with the speaker strongly suspecting a sub-one-second acceleration. For safe flight and landing, the speaker, though not an engineer, predicts there must be at least four additional thrusters on each corner (front left, rear left, front right, rear right), bringing the total to likely 8-10 thrusters. These additional thrusters could allow for vertical take-off, hovering, and long hops.
Furthermore, the upward-pointed thrusters, which create downward force for traction, could also be used to increase handling and cornering speed. If underbody thrusters also gimbal, they could enable "unbelievably brain dead speeds" around corners by blasting gas to push the vehicle into the turn. Thrusters could also be used for dramatically slowing the vehicle, making it the fastest braking car.
The speaker predicts the new Tesla Roadster will be the fastest accelerating, fastest braking, fastest cornering, and the only flying car in history. They anticipate a "flying slash temporary hovering demo" at the launch event, which they expect to be "batshit insane" and "bonkers."
The speaker also noted that the new Roadster's design has changed since its initial peek many years ago, particularly the location of the cold gas thrusters, which previously appeared lower near the license plate. The speaker believes the event will be "epic" and make the Roadster the "most badass vehicle of all time."
The speaker also included promotional messages for AG1 (Athletic Greens), mentioning it as part of their daily health protocol for half a decade, highlighting its vitamins, minerals, support for energy, digestion, immune function, prebiotics, and probiotics. They encouraged viewers to try AG1 by visiting drinkag1.com/smr for a free welcome kit and travel packs.
