there are several threads which cover a lot of interesting technologies, you can use volkerize.com to search for them on this forum.
The first link you included is already covered here: http://www.teslamotors.com/en_EU/forum/forums/super-supercapacitor

The second link... well, to be honest... looks nice, I could imagine it in movie however I am not so sure about it for real life scenario...

You seem to be under the impression TM is using or in the market for cutting edge tech. Nothing could be wronger. It looks for best of breed proven tech and integrates it to best advantage. The whole is then greater than the sum of the parts; the parts are not the issue or crucial.

Next gen touch screen that you can actually feel?

Hello!

Small electric accumulators lifetime significantly constrains the mass use elektromobiley in the world!

But out there!

Already have battery power for an indefinite period of use!

This superflywheel!

Such systems are already using Formula 1,

Why in Tesla mobiles do not use superflywheels?

Sincerely.
Victor.

My guess is that they're mechanical, and if they fail the consequences could be disastrous.

If you visit a Tesla store, one thing that is not uncommon to see is people being amazed by the fact that there's "nothing" under the hood (or in the trunk) and then thinking the car is just some sort of mock up or something.

So to make people more comfortable and endulge their expectations, they should put a big one of these in the frunk of every Model S.

Or a hamster wheel...

How about this tech?

Tesla should tr to incorporate a generator into their their car :
As the thingy spins for the wheels add a magnet and copper coils to produce a electric current to power and charge the battery pack.

In my mind a car that is almost self-sufficient and a self-charging vehicle would almost have unlimited range, and the faster it goes the more power it makes in itself.

Thank you just an idea

Perpetual motion AGAIN.
This has been discussed and debunked several times dude, it's not happening.
Got the links handy Volker? I can't dig them out on my iPhone.

Don't bother.

Enthusiast, stand on one end of a towel. Grab the other end and lift yourself off the ground. Report back when successful. 'Bye!

I wonder if Tesla considers using 3D printing to produce components of future models...

Some prognosticators are prognosticating that 3D printing will soon be the end of reliance on big foreign factories and suppliers. And since TM is gung-ho for vertical integration ...

Question: Will we see induction technology in the future have us drive electric cars without battery packs? I think this could be verry real if alroads had this tech in them but (second question) is it had or expensive to get it in to the roads?

Sure, road paving will be done by giant 3D printers on wheels, and they'll lay down the circuitry as part of the pavemen. Real soon now.

Actually not a bad idea, that one could work as high-tech road builder. Not quite same thing as creating small parts at home with 3D printer though. You need kind of factory on wheels for that.

I wonder when they start making pavement from carbon nanotubes...

(reacting to "real soon now", people overestimate short term development, and underestimate long term)

There are some awesome ideas here!

A special kind of paint is being developed. This paint has got the ability to turn sunlight into electricity (just like solar panels). This could be extremely helpfull for all Electric Vehicles. Because the car will be charging itself during daylight. I think this is a great idea. Don't you think so?

Benz;
Please don't cross- and double-post. Almost everybody here reads every thread every day, usually several times.

I apologise for that.
