Tesla tested Model X's bio****** defense mode, and it performed admirably

One of the most surprising features of Tesla's crazy-expensive, crazy-fast electric SUV, the Model X (http://mashable.com/category/tesla-model-x/), was its bio****** defense mode — an air filter so powerful it can save you from a biological attack.
On Monday, Tesla published a blog post (https://www.teslamotors.com/blog/putting-tesla-hepa-filter-and-bio******-defense-mode-to-the-test) detailing a test the company had performed to show how well the bio****** defense mode works in extreme conditions.

The test was simple: a Model X was placed in a sealed plastic bubble, which was contaminated with what Tesla calls extreme levels of pollution or*1,000 µg/m3 of PM2.5. That's a very large concentration of tiny particles, 2.5 micrometers in diameter, which are particularly dangerous for human health. For comparison, WHO lists average annual PM2.5 levels at*16 µg/m3 in London and*56 µg/m3 in Beijing. Read more... (http://mashable.com/2016/05/03/tesla-model-x-bio******-defense-mode/)
