A special alloy was developed for the big metal castings so that they wouldn’t flex.
And here is where the video embedded above comes into play, where the firm’s vice president of vehicle engineering, Lars Moravy, explains in short what went into making the crossover EV such a big hit.Titled “Engineering From First Principles,” the two and a half minutes-long video mentions how a lot of people love crossovers, and for the right reasons, like storage space and utility. But for the Model Y, the notion of a traditional crossover SUV was blown up.
Moravy goes on to say that at Tesla, they always use the first principles approach to come up with innovative solutions to simple problems. This applies to the cost-cutting and time-saving metal casting for the rear portion of the vehicle. But as Lars Moravy puts it, the problem with making huge pieces of aluminum is that they warp when being heat treated.
