I think you'll find most cars have electric seats. Perhaps most people are lazy, incompetent idiots?

The Tesla has, of course, got massive battery power - it's a battery vehicle. Adjusting the seat makes no difference to the range, nor does putting on the Sat Nav, aircon, wipers or heated seats.

Like Peter's previous Mercedes, the seat position, the side mirrors, A/C settings and other things are personalised to the phone that's opened the car. A very useful function if your wife or anyone else drives the car.



That's really interesting. Air con saps about 10% of a petrol car's power and reduces range I think. How does the battery system avoid that?
