    • @Thatdavemarsh
      @Thatdavemarsh 2 года назад +8

      It’s definitely a change to the whole decking process, and greatly improves the ergo for seat and floor buildup. I’ll wait to see the details analysis, but the labour savings are not likely significant but rather small efficiency pickups. You wont save “hours” as the whole assy process is only likely 12-15 hours in total labour. Even still, if you can save 20 min, that’s 10-15$ per car and that’s huge.
      It’s a lot of labour to get there, but seeing the access under the dash from through the floor was wild.

    That is a real smart way of doing the interior, instead of going through the doors you can come up underneath to put in the back seats, front dash and trim it out then lastly lift the floor in. Would make much more ergonomic sense in the production line. You even see the workflow that they have first you lift the dash in and hookup all the wires, lights etc from the front to the back. Then you trim out the roof and pillars. Lift in the back seat frame and seats. Finally lift in the floor, slide the center console forward bolt is and cover it and the inadie is done.

    1200 lbs weight for the pack with seats and all attached is pretty impressive. Compare that to the 2012 Model S “85 kWh” pack, which weighed 1200 lbs by itself. Total energy was about 82 kWh for the Model S, and this pack is at least close to that much total capacity. Maybe equal capacity if it is software limited. Compared to the Model S pack this new 4680 Model Y pack also includes the on-vehicle charger, DC-DC converter, front seats, center console, carpet, and some of the BIW structure!

Great move to utilise RUclips in this manner, you have a really great specialty to bring to the table.

    As they started, I was immediately concerned about the compression of that elastomeric seal in some spots. Glad it was mentioned. Wiring is being reduced, but would like to see it reduced even more. Somehow that focus was dropped, but I can imagine dropping the amount of wire by at least 2X compared to now. Obviously other things were more critical to focus on. But do expect major improvements to continue with time. Just love these tear downs. Great job!

      @@rogerstarkey5390 No, the improvement we are looking for is reduction in total wires, not wire gauges. Tesla was supposedly to reducing the total amount of wiring by a lot with single wires going to components and daisy chaining. This most likely introduces reliability problems so they are progressing towards it over time instead of trying to do an immediate jump to the endgame.

The single wire solution is far bigger for weight reduction than going from 12v to 48v. It is why 48v is on the back burner, it isn't that important.

      Presumably, the "single wire" architecture will rely on unibody frame for current return and daisy chained addressable loads and/or current distribution hubs where wire gauge will change. Some of the constraints on wiring are built into legislated regulations so, like cameras replacing side mirrors, it will require a lot of lobbying and probably tortured test beds.

I am in my 60s with a very bad back so it allows me to get out and be in fresh air since I cant walk or pedal. I cant wait for my first opportunity to dive a new electric car.

    Oh man, I do understand why you are asking $800.00 for an individual battery cell. Just WoW though. For those whom think that this is a crazy high price, consider the total costs involved with both purchasing the vehicle and the human hours needed to, with skill and precision to pretty much deconstruct such an incredibly complex machine.
    I would compare this successful endeavor to asking a child to completely disassemble an old school copy machine or video cassette player/ recorder, without damaging it and preparing a doctorate level analysis with related insightful knowledge of such.
    Very difficult. Impressive.
    The team represented in this video is absolutely top notch.
    For those persons who just think this is easy, go ahead and try it for yourselves.
