EEVblog 1570 - Tesla DIESEL Electric Train FAIL at Belin Gigafactory

(1/4) > >>

EEVblog:
Tesla unveiled to much fanfare, a DIESEL electric train to carry workers to and from their Berlin Gigafactory. LOL!
Dave runs the numbers on whether or not they could have used a Battery Electric Train (BEMU) instead of diesel electric. And could they have powered it from the solar panels on the train station roof?

But, but, but… Elon told us self-driving electric cars are the future of high-capacity point-to-point transport! Are we being lied to?

Where is an Hyperloop train when we need one? /sarcasm filter on.

The train set in the last video appears to be a refurbished S-Bahn.

Hyperloop is not suited for short distance travel. Also this is temporary solution which will be replaced after a few years and is not operated by Tesla. Just an extension of existing train network.
