A new official video shows European field quality engineers driving the Model Y and Model X in temperatures as low as -16 degrees.
are put through their paces in the icy regions of Norway, just a couple of miles away from the Arctic Circle, where the company’s European field quality engineers seem to make do with few instruments. For example, the Model Y in the video was at one point fitted with a makeshift sensor that measures the temperature, humidity, and pressure inside the taillight, to see what this particular component goes through and to find out how it could be improved if potential issues are discovered.
Inspections are also performed inside a workshop, but as one of the engineers puts it, they try to move as quickly as possible in this heated environment to prevent the ice from melting. One thing that’s checked in this portion of the video is the windshield wiper fluid hoses, presumably to see if they cracked from the cold.Temperatures can go as low as -16.
“The typical day here is a very harsh environment for the cars because you have a lot of temperature differences, as well as elevation changes,” said Andreas, one of the field quality engineers in the video. “So, you can really stress the car in this area, simulating a complete winter in a couple of weeks.”
