Autopilot Features & Capability Tesla Motors Model S D

With all the hype of Tesla Motors latest model "the D", is the autopilot feature really capable of handling itself the way it's promoted? I believe the answer is yes... and no. 

At the moment, it is one of the most advanced cars available with some of the greatest safety features ever built in. The autopilot used a system of new radars, GPS, and camera sensors to run on the road. These features are unmistakably impressive, but the reality of it is that it's more of a turbo charged driver assist feature as of now. Musk has reveled future plans though for the vehicle that will improve it's autopilot functions as time goes on. 

Although, when the vehicle is described by Musk as, "this car is nuts. It's like taking off from a carrier deck. It's just bananas. It's like having your own personal roller coaster", I would want to feel the power transferring into my hands on the steering wheel, non-stop. 

Autopilot & Power - Tesla Motors Model D

Tesla Motors has been leading the outbreak of electric vehicles for almost a decade now with Elon Musk at the helm. This latest model, the Dual Motor Model S, was introduced today after weeks of speculation.

Musk states that his vehicle is, "taking technology to the next level". It certainly look like it too. The Dual Motor Model S has Autopilot features like no other. The new system will move the vehicle over lanes with ONLY the flick of the wrist, moving the turn signal. That's right, the foot isn't on the pedal and the hands are completely free of the steering wheel. Naturally, this is all done while obeying the speed limit . This new model can read incoming speed limit signs and adjust accordingly while on the go. In a future updates, the car will be able to park itself in the owners garage or driveway while the driver is dropped off at the front door. This also works in the reverse scenario, slowly making its way to the driver wherever they may be.

The newest Tesla addition is incredibly fast, matching the McLaren's 3.2 second dash from 0-60 mph. "It's like having your own personal roller coaster," said Musk.
