Roulezelectrique.com: Une hausse majeure du prix de vente de la Tesla Model S au Canada

Tesla Motors est reconnu pour ?chambarder? l'ordre ?tabli dans l'industrie automobile. Contrairement aux manufacturiers traditionnels qui diminuent le prix de leurs mod?les ?lectrique (ex: la Volt baisse de 5000$, la Focus ?lectrique baisse de 4000$), Tesla augmente le prix de leur unique mod?le ... et pas ? peu pr?s! En effet, en vigueur depuis le 1er ao?t 2013, c'est le prix des options surtout qui augmente parfois de plus de 100%!

tesla model s

Selon le site am?ricain Plugincars, le mod?le Performance Plus avec toutes les options de choisies, co?te la modique somme de 132 070$ USD (avant taxes et avant les rabais gouvernementaux). Au Canada, les Tesla S sont plus dispendieuses: c'est 143 120$ que co?te la Tesla Model S la plus ?quip?e!

Mais concr?tement, par rapport au prix pay? par les ?early adopters?, les consommateurs pr?coces comme moi-m?me, quelle est la hausse de prix exacte?

Je rappelle au lecteur que je suis propri?taire d'une Tesla Model S que j'ai r?serv? en juin 2012 et que j'ai re?u en mars 2013. J'ai la plus grosse batterie (85 kWh) avec beaucoup d'options, mais je n'ai pas la version Performance ou Performance Plus.

Donc, j'ai ressorti ma facture et configur? une Tesla Model S exactement identique sur le site de Tesla Motors (version Canada). Voici les r?sultats de mon calcul: en incluant les taxes, il y a une augmentation de 11 500$ (si vous voulez voir le d?tail des chiffres et du calcul, le tableau comparatif se trouve ici).

De plus, le 1er janvier 2014 (c'est dans moins de 5 mois!), le rabais gouvernemental sera diminu? ? 4000$. Donc, en supposant que Tesla n'augmente pas ses prix d'ici l?, un nouvel acheteur qui voudra s'acheter, apr?s janvier 2014, une Tesla S avec une configuration identique ? la mienne, devra d?bourser 15 500$ de plus.

Et pour quelle raison Tesla Motors se permet-elle une telle hausse de prix?

Apr?s des ?changes avec d'autres propri?taires Tesla au Qu?bec, nous en sommes arriv?s aux hypoth?ses suivantes:

  1. L'offre et la demande: la capacit? de production est limit?e actuellement (environ 600 voitures par semaine) et la demande est beaucoup plus ?lev?e, surtout avec le d?but des livraisons en Europe (?a commence en ao?t) et en Asie (plus tard cette ann?e).
  2. Le PDG de Tesla Motors, Elon Musk, a promis aux actionnaires que les marges b?n?ficiaires brutes seraient d'au moins 25%. Une des fa?ons simples d'atteindre ces marges, c'est d'augmenter le prix de vente!
  3. Le prix de vente de la Tesla S est inf?rieur aux voitures comparables (et ? essence en plus): la Audi A8, la Mercedes S, la BMW s?rie 7, la Porsche Carrera ou la Maserati Quatroporte.
  4. En plus, la Tesla S a re?u des ?loges de la part des ?experts?: Motor Trend lui a d?cern? le titre de voiture de l'ann?e et Consumer Reports la notre presque parfaite de 99%! Alors, quand on ne re?oit que des ?loges d'un produit, il est tentant d'en augmenter le prix!

? mon avis, c'est une mauvaise nouvelle pour l'augmentation du nombre de voitures ?lectriques sur le march?, car la voiture ?lectrique de r?ve est encore moins accessible. Est-ce que les ventes de Tesla S diminueront au Canada avec la hausse des prix? Probablement, je suppose. Selon les derni?res donn?es, la Tesla S est en 2e position dans le palmar?s des ventes au pays ... tout juste derri?re la Chevrolet Volt (et il semblerait que la Tesla S est tr?s pr?s du num?ro 1).

Une chose est certaine: ? 15 500$ de plus, je n'aurais pas eu les moyens financiers d'acheter cette voiture. Actuellement, j'?conomise environ 200$ par mois par rapport ? mon ancienne voiture (une Fusion 2010 4 cylindres), car je consommais 1000$ de p?trole par mois en plus du pr?t-auto et des nombreux entretiens.

Mais avec le 15 500$ additionnel, ce 200$ par mois dispara?t! Est-ce que j'aurais enlev? des options? Peut-?tre. Pourtant, le toit panoramique qui se contr?le avec l'?cran central est tellement g?nial ... et les si?ges d'enfants, obligatoire pour moi si je veux ?tre capable de transporter ma famille au complet! C'est la seule consolation, le prix de base a peu augment? (voir tableau).

Bien s?r, pour les gens riches et c?l?bres, la hausse n'est peut-?tre pas un probl?me (tant que le prix est comp?titif par rapport aux autres voitures de luxe et de performance).

Une consolation: Pour une fois que c'est payant d'?tre un ?early adopter?. Alors que toutes les voitures ?conventionnelles? perdent 20 ? 30% de leur valeur d?s qu'elles quittent la cour du Concessionnaire, c'est probablement le contraire pour ma Tesla S ... elle vaut peut-?tre plus que le prix que j'ai pay?!

Historiquement, les consommateurs pr?coces (early adopters) paient tr?s cher pour ?tre les premiers ... et lorsque le produit atteint le consommateur de masse, le prix baisse dramatiquement ...l semblerait qu'avec Tesla, c'est le contraire qui se passe ... mais avec eux, il faut s'habituer ...cette entreprise ? l'intention de red?finir l'industrie de l'automobile ... mais ?a ne se fera pas sans ?brasser la cage?!

Note: Propri?taires actuels de Tesla S et futurs propri?taires, SVP n'h?sitez pas ? commenter et ? partager votre propre exp?rience.

Gunmen abduct 2 Turkish Airlines crew in Lebanon

(AP) ? Gunmen ambushed a van Friday carrying a Turkish Airlines crew in the Lebanese capital, kidnapping a pilot and a co-pilot in an attack that appeared linked to the ongoing civil war in neighboring Syria.

Six gunmen stopped the vehicle on an old airport road in Beirut, abducting the two Turkish nationals and letting the rest of the crew go, officials said.

The van was travelling between Rafik Hariri International Airport and a Beirut hotel when the ambush took place, said the Lebanese officials, speaking on condition of anonymity in line with regulations.

Lebanon's state news agency said a group called the Zuwaar al-Imam Rida claimed responsibility for the kidnapping. The group, which was previously unknown, said in a statement carried by the National News Agency that the pilots "will only be released when the Lebanese hostages in Syria return."

The civil war in neighboring Syria has deeply divided the Lebanese. The Syrian rebels, who are backed by Turkey, have been holding nine Lebanese Shiites hostage since last year. There have been other kidnappings on both sides since the war began.

A representative for the Lebanese hostages' families said that there was "no relationship between the kidnapping of Turkish pilots and case of Lebanese hostages in Syria," the NNA reported. However, Sheik Abbas Zougheib of the Higher Shiite Councils said if the abduction "is to settle the question of Lebanese abducted in Syria, we support it," according to the news service.

The Turkish crew had landed a Turkish Airlines flight from Istanbul early Friday morning, the Lebanese officials told The Associated Press. Authorities were investigating and the road where the kidnapping occurred has been closed off with several police checkpoints, the officials said.

The NNA reported earlier that the driver of the van was being questioned and that eight gunmen were involved in the abduction. The difference in the number of the attackers in the report and the Lebanese officials' account could not immediately be explained.

In Turkey, Foreign Ministry spokesman Levent Gumrukcu confirmed the kidnapping. He said the rest of the crew was still in Beirut but were leaving to return to Turkey on Friday evening.

"We don't know who did this and for what purpose," Gumrukcu said. He said the Turkish government was in close contact with Lebanese officials over the abduction.

Turkey supports the Sunni Muslim rebels fighting to topple the regime of Syrian President Bashar Assad, which is dominated by Alawites, an offshoot sect of Shiite Islam.

A spokesman for Turkish Airlines Ali Genc identified the two pilots as Murat Akpinar and Murat Agca. Genc did not offer any other information.

The Lebanese are deeply divided over Syria's civil war, with Shiites largely supporting the regime in Damascus and Sunnis backing the rebels. Both Sunni militants, and fighters from Lebanon's dominant Shiite Hezbollah group, have been fighting on opposite sides in the conflict.

The conflict in Syria that has claimed more than 100,000 lives since it erupted in March 2011. The fighting frequently has spilled into Lebanon.

Mexico releases drug lord behind 1985 DEA agent killing

MEXICO CITY | Fri Aug 9, 2013 5:05pm EDT

MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - A Mexican court on Friday freed notorious drug kingpin Rafael Caro Quintero, who was convicted of ordering the killing of a U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration officer in 1985.

Caro Quintero was freed after the court decided he should have been tried at a state level, rather than federal level, a court official said, ending his 28-year stay behind bars.

"There are various factors, and among them the fact that he already served his time for drug trafficking," the court official said.

He was released from the Puente Grande prison in the western Mexican state of Jalisco on Friday morning, according to the state attorney general's office.

Caro Quintero, who is believed to be in his 60s, holds a special place in Mexican drug lore and was one of the leaders of the Guadalajara cartel, a forerunner of the Sinaloa cartel which is currently led by Joaquin "Shorty" Guzman, the country's most-wanted drug lord.

Caro Quintero was convicted of ordering the 1985 kidnapping, torture and murder of Enrique Camarena, an undercover DEA agent behind a number of successful drug busts.

At the time, the United States expressed anger at a perceived lackluster effort to catch Camarena's killer and the episode marked a low point in Mexico-U.S. relations. Caro Quintero was caught in Costa Rica in 1985.

According to a source from the Mexican attorney general's office, Caro Quintero cannot be extradited to the United States because a decision by Mexico's Supreme Court bars extradition of Mexicans to countries that may impose the death penalty or life imprisonment - punishments excluded by Mexican law.

A spokeswoman for the U.S. Department of Justice declined to comment on whether the United States would seek his extradition.

More than 70,000 people have been killed in drug-related killings in Mexico since 2007 when the government launched a militarized attack on the warring cartels.

President Enrique Pena Nieto, who took office in December, has shifted the focus away from going after cartel bosses to tackling violent crimes such as extortion and kidnapping.

BEIRUT (AP) ? Syrian troops ambushed a large group of rebels Wednesday trudging through what once was a secret route through a desert road northeast of Damascus, killing more than 60 fighters in a barrage of machine gun fire and leaving their bodies in the sand.

State television claimed those killed came from an al-Qaida-linked group that has joined the battle against President Bashar Assad, whose troops are trying to drive opposition forces from areas surrounding his seat of power in the capital.

There were conflicting reports on the attack in Adra, which lies on a supply route between Damascus and rebel-held areas to the east that is often the scene of heavy clashes between the two sides. The dawn attack dealt another heavy blow to opposition troops following a string of recent regime successes.

Syrian troops have been on the offensive in the past few months in an attempt to clear out Damascus suburbs held by opposition fighters.

Syrian state-run media showed footage of bloodied corpses lying on the ground, some wearing camouflage gear with their weapons scattered around in the sand. One picture showed gas masks next to the weapons.

The state-run SANA news agency said "dozens" of rebels were killed in the ambush as they were on their way to attack an army post near Damascus. SANA identified the dead as members of the al-Qaida-linked Jabhat al-Nusra, and said some were foreign fighters.

Broadcaster Al-Ikhbariya also showed a Tunisian passport, Islamic headbands and automatic rifles apparently carried by the rebels.

Some activists disputed the account, saying those killed were Syrian fighters from a mix of brigades delivering aid to besieged areas.

Mohammed Saeed, an activist based near Damascus, told The Associated Press that 65 rebels were on their way from Damascus' eastern suburbs to Qalamoun nearby. Saeed said rebels walked the 30-kilometer (19-mile) route because it is dangerous to drive in the area as it is watched by Assad's forces.

"It seems that the regime discovered the secret road that the rebels were using," Saeed said via Skype. "The regime forces riddled them with heavy machine gun fire."

He said 62 died and three escaped to Qalamoun.

Another activist said the rebels were on their way to deliver medicine, flour and other foodstuffs to the Eastern Ghouta region, which has been besieged for months. He said the rebels were a "mix of fighters," including some from Nusra Front. He spoke on condition of anonymity out of fears of retribution.

The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said at least 62 rebels died in Wednesday's ambush. It did not report any government casualties.

In the north, a missile struck the rebel-held city of Raqqa, killing three people and wounding dozens including children, the Local Coordination Committees activist group said. The Observatory said that two children were among the three killed.

Amateur videos showed at least three children who suffered wounds and were rushed away in a pickup truck.

A boy, with minor wounds to his mouth, knees and feet, screamed as he was held by a man in the pickup truck and shouted "Dad!" The man holding him tried to calm him down, saying: "Dad will come soon."

The videos appeared genuine and corresponded to other AP reporting on the events depicted.

Wednesday's missile attack came after Human Rights Watch said missiles fired by the Syrian army into populated areas have killed hundreds of civilians in recent months.

Meanwhile, the Observatory said that Kurdish gunmen captured about 70 government troops Wednesday who fled the air base of Mannagh in the northern province of Aleppo. The base was captured by rebels Tuesday after months of fighting.

The Observatory also reported fighting and shelling in the mountains of the coastal province of Latakia, an Assad stronghold. Rebels captured 11 Alawite villages in an offensive earlier this week and troops launched a counterattack to retake it.

Syria's conflict has taken on an increasingly sectarian tone in the last year, pitting predominantly Sunni Muslim rebels against members of Assad's Alawite sect, an offshoot of Shiite Islam.

Syria's crisis started as a largely peaceful uprising against Assad's rule in March 2011. It turned into a civil war after opposition supporters took up arms to fight a brutal government crackdown. More than 100,000 people have been killed in the violence.

The scale of that destruction could be seen in satellite images released Wednesday by Amnesty International. The images showed hundreds of damaged or destroyed houses and more than 1,000 roadblocks around the northern city of Aleppo, which has seen months of vicious fighting.

"Satellite images really speak for themselves," said Donetella Rovera, a senior Amnesty adviser who recently returned from a trip to Aleppo. "You can see really clearly buildings ? groups of buildings ? that were there a year ago that are no longer there today."

Mozilla's Firefox Phones Get Operator Billing Through Bango

firefox-mobileMozilla has signed mobile payments company Bango to allow operator billing on the Firefox OS marketplace. That means that users on the soon-to-be-released Firefox phones will be able to pay for their apps via their phone bills. This confirms a scoop that we had in February, where we first announced the Mozilla and Bango marriage. Carrier billing is still not a common feature in smartphone app stores, where billing is typically charged to user credit cards, as it is with Google Play and the iOS App Store. But it’s especially significant in emerging markets, where credit card penetration is far from ubiquitous, and the prepaid segment remains sizable. And as Mozilla positions its upcoming?mid-range devices?towards markets such as Latin America and Asia, the ability to provide carrier billing will help address the many unbanked users which don’t have credit cards. Bango isn’t a stranger to large telecoms deals. The Cambridge-based firm signed a deal with mobile carrier Telefonica in January?to power carrier billing for Telefonica’s services, covering the latter’s 314 million subscriber base. The anticipated Firefox OS is Mozilla’s smartphone operating system based entirely on open Web standards such as HTML5. Mozilla is positioning it as an alternative for powering low-cost and mid-range devices, in particular by offering carriers more control over the inner workings of the phone, compared with Android, for example. Bango raised $10.2 million in February 2013 to continue growing its customer base. It already provides carrier billing options to large clients such as Facebook, Amazon, BlackBerry and Opera, to name some, and says it has a reach of about a billion users.

Spain studies measures to pressure Gibraltar

By Dominique Searle

MADRID/GIBRALTAR (Reuters) - Spain is studying retaliatory measures against the British territory of Gibraltar in an escalating dispute over fishing grounds, Spanish Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Garcia-Margallo said in an interview published on Sunday.

"The party is over," Garcia-Margallo told ABC newspaper, referring to years of softer policy on Gibraltar under the previous Socialist government.

The minister said Spain was mulling a 50-euro border-crossing fee and tax investigations of thousands of Gibraltarians who own property in Spain. A border fee would affect tourists and Gibraltarians who cross the border for work.

Spain was also considering closing airspace to planes heading for the airport in Gibraltar and changing rules to wring taxes from on-line gaming companies based in Gibraltar, he said.

Spain disputes Britain's three centuries of sovereignty over Gibraltar, a territory on the southern tip of Spain that is home to close to 30,000 people with an economy dominated by off-shore banking, Internet gambling operations and tourism.

Gibraltar Chief Minister Fabian Picardo issued a statement attacking Garcia-Margallo's reported comments. The British Foreign Office said it would seek explanations from Spain regarding the measures it might impose.

"The statements ... are the most backward-looking and threatening since before the frontier closed and are clearly reminiscent of the politics and tactics on Gibraltar deployed by the fascist regime led by Franco in the '50s and '60s," Picardo said in a statement. He called the Spanish foreign minister's words "belligerent rantings."

The 1.2-km frontier between Spain and Gibraltar was closed for most of the 1970s and the first part of the 1980s due to the dispute over the status of the territory.

Under the previous Socialist government Spain softened its stance, discussing other issues without bringing up sovereignty while agreeing to give Gibraltar a voice in any talks with Britain over its status.

But the center-right government of Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy has taken a harder line regarding its claim on the territory.

The latest tensions between Spain and the British territory began 10 days ago after Gibraltar boats began dumping blocks of concrete into the sea near the territory. Gibraltar said it was creating an artificial reef that would foster fish populations.

Spain said the reef would block its fishing boats and ramped up border checks, creating long lines at the border between Spain and the territory.

Picardo called for proportionate customs and immigration controls at the frontier, saying they had been excessive in recent days.

On Friday, the British Foreign Office summoned Spain's ambassador for consultations. Britain said the delays, from July 26 to 28 and again on July 30, were unjustified.

Gibraltar has complained to the European Commission over what it says are unreasonable controls at the border, saying they violate European Union rules on free circulation.

Canadian Olympians to march in Vancouver gay pride parade as Sochi outrage grows

Canadian Olympians will march in the Vancouver Pride Parade this weekend in a display of solidarity with the gay community that would land them in jail or kicked out of next year?s Sochi Olympics.

Alpine skier Mike Janyk and snowboarder Mercedes Nicoll, both members of Canada?s 2006 and 2010 Olympic teams, will join thousands of marchers in the 2010 Olympic city, adding their voices to the growing outrage over Russia?s anti-gay laws.

More Related to this Story

Foreign competitors and spectators at the 2014 Sochi Olympics will have to abide by a new Russian law banning ?gay propaganda.?

Russian sports minister Vitaly Mutko said on Thursday any athletes or visitors to the Winter Olympics found breaking the law would ?be held accountable?.

Foreigners can be deported from Russia, in addition to being fined up to 100,000 roubles ($3,000) or held for up to 15 days.

?Seeing what?s going on in Russia it does feel really cool to at least stand up and hopefully have a few people take notice of that,? Janyk told Reuters. ?The opportunity came up to go in the Pride parade as an Olympian and I thought, oh that?s a great idea and then all this other stuff came up and it is even more important now.?

Even before the Russian controversy the Canadian Olympic Committee (COC) had taken steps to raise its profile among the gay/lesbian community by taking part in a number of Pride events across the country.

Canada, winner of a Winter Games record 14 gold medals at the 2010 Olympics in Vancouver, is expected to send one of its biggest-ever contingents to Sochi with the COC expressing its disappointment in the Russian anti-gay position.

?Playing sports is a human right and should be available to all regardless of race, gender or sexual orientation,? COC spokesman Dimitri Soudas told Reuters in an e-mail. ?Since London 2012, the COC has been involved in more than 100 events, with approximately 800 Olympians.

?This year, for the first time ever, we added Pride festivals to our long list of community involvement.

?Our aim is to showcase athletes in ways highlighting Canada?s values and pride. We believe in the power of sport uniting individuals of all races, genders and sexual orientation.

?We oppose discrimination of any kind.?

The United States Olympic Committee (USOC) is also paying close attention to the controversy.

While the USOC has downplayed any suggestions of a possible boycott over the issue, it is making moves to ensure the safety of athletes and Americans travelling to the Black Sea resort for the Games.

In a letter sent to athletes and seen by Reuters, the USOC emphasized that it is closely monitoring the situation. admitting it did not know to what extent Russian officials will enforce laws that have a number of anti-gay components.

?The purpose of this letter is to let you know that we are aware of these laws and are engaged in active discussions with the International Olympic Committee and the U.S. State Department about how we can ensure that every American in Sochi and especially our athletes, are safe and secure at the Olympic and Paralympic Games,? said USOC chief executive officer Scott Blackmun. ?Every time we field a team, the safety and security of our athletes is a primary concern.?

Microsoft patents augmented reality Kinect Glasses

microsoft-kinect-glassesRedmond-based software giant Microsoft is working on a new multiplayer gaming device called Kinect Glasses to make gaming more immersive, a newly discovered patent suggested.

The patent suggested that Microsoft's augmented reality Kinect Glasses will reportedly come equipped with OLED display, gyroscopes, microphones, eye scanning technology, and accelerometers.

The new device would be capable of determining the view and position of the users as well as recognizing his/her voice and gestures.

The patent for Microsoft's reported augmented reality glasses states, "A system and related methods for inviting a potential player to participate in a multiplayer game via a user head-mounted display device."

The patent for Microsoft's augmented reality glasses has triggered speculations that the glasses in question are the "Fortaleza Glasses" that were outlined in the last year's 56-page leaked manual for Xbox One.

The roadmap as suggested by that leaked document suggested that the augmented reality glasses would hit store shelves by 2015.

BSkyB grants Microsoft temporary use of SkyDrive name in trademark dispute, allows it time to rebrand cloud service

BSkyB and Microsoft reach agreement over SkyDrive name dispute

BSkyB may have won the trademark case against Microsoft's SkyDrive cloud service, but there won't be any renaming going on just yet. Today, the British satellite TV provider has announced that it's reached an agreement with Redmond, allowing the software giant to temporarily continue using the name SkyDrive while it handles the transition to a new brand. The arrangement, which includes an undisclosed financial settlement, also means Microsoft won't appeal against the ruling. For now though, you'll just have to find your own way to tell the services apart, until Microsoft figures out what to call its cloud offering going forward.
