In a recent interview on Dutch television, Elon Musk Tesla predicted that cars would be travel far to more than 1000 km range, which doubles the distance of what an all electric cars can now travel in one or two years. Model S now able to travel 452 miles or 723 km on a single charge, but he could not move at an average speed of 24 mph.

In addition, Musk believes Model S range could be improved by about 5% and 10% annually in battery technology also improves. Autopilot, a feature that allows drivers to make hands-free driving in many situations is reported to be commissioned within a month. Moreover, Musk suggested that cars full autonomy would be available in the next three years, which is earlier than analysts' expectations, which is in 2020.

As for the future coming, Musk counted it would still take 20 years to fully replace all the cars and trucks with electric vehicles. It seems a lot of time to wait, but the replacement of a car is not as easy as replacing a smartphone as it will take about 5 to 10 years to design a car from scratch and perhaps a or two years to do the test and the end of mass produced.

Tesla Model X, an all-electric luxury SUV start to be delivered to early adopters in October while the model 3, will be revealed in 2016.
