Tesla conducts tests to demonstrate how the features of the HEPA filter in the Model X, including the Model S' latest version, work. According to the company, this will show the effectiveness of the new technology, as it can clean the interior side as well as the air around the vehicle.
Referred to as Teslas' Bioweapon Defense Mode, the new car feature appears to sound like a type of technology from a sci-fi film. But according to Tesla, this new feature is the real thing, and not just a marketing statement, citing its ability to protect the passenger from a grade bio attack by only sitting inside the vehicle.
Tesla's HEPA filtration system functions by refining the air that comes inside the car, hence eliminating the pollution, pollen and bacteria. In addition to this, it can also clean out every piece of contaminant that can be found in the interior, thereby ensuring air quality, BGR reported.
To assess the in-house, Model X is placed inside a bubble with the highest levels of pollution: the index limit of the good air's PM2.5 of the EPA is 12 µg/m3,,, while the air inside is 1,000µg/m3. When the Bioweapon Defense Mode had been turned on, the air inside the Model X became notably clean based on the instruments that was used to gauge the pollution, finding no traces of contaminants. The HEPA filters were placed as well in the actual driving conditions, and also passed the tests.
According to the electric vehicle manufacturer, the system employed in the hospital and space industry, has inspired the new technology. Meantime, Tesla CEO Elon Musk gives credit to Google co-founder Larry Page, who, according to Musk provided all the essentials from the beginning, Tesla Motors reported.
Tesla's Bioweapon Defense Mode test is an indication that the extent of the engineering technology at the company is going to move forward, although not everyone would be needing a borderline clean air all the time.
