Get-ie an extra large mirror in the sun visor?

Silliness, of course, because Tesla’s godfather Elon Musk is referring, of course, on the design of the exterior. His opinion was the popular Model S is too much aimed at men and so is the upcoming SUV more the wife/metroman. Indeed, à la Range Rover Evoque. You know, that thing where posh spice Victoria Beckham one and the other.

This tactic appears to have paid off, because according to Musk more than half of the persons who already have a Model X ordered blessed with, um, a woman’s body. It may be that the practical applicability there is also something to do with it. The electric SUV that offers a place to seven persons (just like the Model’s) and a lot of stuff. The sprint from 0-100 km/h would still be at the same time in 5 count behind the back, the maximum range is somewhere above 350 km.

When the Model S was, incidentally, about 86% of the buyers in 2013, of the male gender. But it is also just a bit of a mannenauto, just like most of the voitures of the same format (A6, E-class, 5-series, etc).

It is expected that the Model X within a few months being introduced. We can at that time, nice is itself a judgment about the appearance, provided that the new fiscal rules are not too much of a spanner in the works throw.
