Model S is built from the ground up as a formidable electric vehicle, with high-strength architecture and a floor-mounted battery pack allowing for incredible impact protection. 

Model S sets an industry standard for performance and safety. Tesla’s all-electric powertrain delivers unparalleled performance in all weather conditions – with Dual Motor All-Wheel Drive, adaptive air suspension and ludicrous acceleration.

Tesla is the only company with the technology that provides dual motors for an AWD which instantly controls traction and torque independently for both front and rear wheels in all weather conditions. Versatile handling and aerodynamics marks the top speed of the car up to 163 mph.

Autopilot advanced safety and convenience features are designed to assist you with the most burdensome parts of driving. 360 degree cameras facing all sides results in maximum visibility. 12 ultrasonic cameras detects nearby cars, prevents collisions and assists with parking.

The car can be recharged up to 163 miles in 15 minutes. 17,000 +superchargers have been placed across well-travelled routes around the world. One can travel up to 402 miles with a single charge.

An expensive 17 inch touchscreen display has been placed within the car to monitor the features. The model comes in 5 signature colours covered in multi-layered paint. It has one of the lowest drag coefficient on Earth making it aerodynamically smooth. Expansive glass roof provides more headroom and UV protection. Advanced noise engineering creates sound dynamics comparable to a recording studio. 5 adults can be seated comfortably in the car

MODEL-X:


The Tesla Model X has been rated with a 5 star safety making it a trustworthy ride for the customers.. Built from the ground up as an electric vehicle, the body, chassis, restraints and battery technology provide a very low probability of occupant injury making it one of the safest SUVs ever to be manufactured.

Model X has the most storage room (88 cubic feet) of any SUV in its class, comfortable seating for up to seven adults and the capability to tow up to 5,000 pounds. Falcon Wing doors, which enhances the accessibility to back doors and opens in the tightest parking spaces are equipped with sensors to monitor the proximity of surroundings, and can open in even the tightest parking spaces.

MODEL – Y:


The Model Y is manufactured with 68 cubic feet storage space, AWD dual motor and an EPA range of 316 miles. 

Like every Tesla, Model Y is designed to be the safest vehicle in its class. The low centre of gravity, rigid body structure and large crumple zones provide unparalleled protection. Model Y provides maximum versatility—able to carry 7 passengers and their cargo. Each second row seat folds flat independently, creating flexible storage for skis, furniture, luggage and more. The lift gate opens to a low trunk floor that makes loading and unloading easy and quick.

Tesla All-Wheel Drive has two ultra-responsive, independent electric motors that digitally control torque to the front and rear wheels—for far better handling, traction and stability control. Model Y is capable in rain, snow, mud and off-road. All new Tesla cars come standard with emergency braking, collision warning, blind-spot monitoring and more. Model Y will have Full Self-Driving capability, enabling automatic driving on city streets and highways pending regulatory approval, as well as the ability to come find you anywhere in a parking lot.

MODEL-3:


The Model 3 cruises from 0-60 MPH in 3.2 seconds. Made with AWD dual motors, it has a wide range of 322 miles.

Safety is the most important part of the overall Model 3 design. The metal structure is a combination of aluminium and steel, for maximum strength in every area. In a roof-crush test, Model 3 resisted four times its own mass, even with an all-glass roof: that's the same weight as two full-grown African elephants.

Model 3 comes with the option of dual motor all-wheel drive, 20” Performance Wheels and Brakes and lowered suspension for total control, in all weather conditions. And a carbon fibre spoiler improves stability at high speeds.

Tesla All-Wheel Drive has two independent motors for improved redundancy, each with only one moving part for minimal maintenance and maximum durability. Unlike traditional all-wheel drive systems, they digitally control torque to the front and rear wheels for far better handling and traction control. The inside of Model 3 is unlike any other car. You can use your smartphone as a key, and access all driver controls in the central 15-inch touchscreen. The all-glass roof extends from front to back, creating a sense of openness from every seat.

WHY ATLANTIC AND PACIFIC OCEAN ARE NOT MIXED?

Nearly 72% of the earth is filled with water and it is present with different names- oceans, seas, rivers. Why are they named differently? There are five oceans namely Artic ocean, Atlantic Ocean, Pacific Ocean, Indian ocean and Antarctic ocean . All the oceans are different in their physical and biological character called ocean clines. When we look at the Atlantic and Pacific Ocean junction, they do not mix. Is there any invisible Wall in between them? Many scientists have conducted research to solve this mystery. The Atlantic and Pacific Ocean have different chemical composition. The salinity of the water in the Atlantic Ocean is five times more than the Pacific Ocean. The density of water is also different, so even marine animals in Atlantic Ocean will not go to the Pacific Ocean. They cannot survive in other oceans. Atlantic and Pacific Ocean meet at Cape Horn. The narrow straight line formed by the water bodies is called Drake Strait. The Pacific Ocean is ...
