    Tesla Model Y-LR in Australia

    I am contemplating to buy MY LR under finance. This is due to just a 7% interest rate, which is only 1.5% higher than my mortgage. I had a few questions based on your experience and knowledge: 1. Is the lender of Tesla’s finance trusted? 2. Will the interest rate fall once RBA reduces in future...

    Model Y review from an mechanical and software engineer's standpoint.

    Thats what im referring to, Tesla cars dont lose control like that and self correct, unless you run off the road or hit something early I suggest you watch actual testing:

    Model Y review from an mechanical and software engineer's standpoint.

    Agree. I saw a massive dead roo on the middle of highway lane at night, and I played enough car racing games to instinctively know to take the hit straight on. My Ford Focus jumped all 4 wheels off the road. If i went over it on one side it would have definitely flipped me over.

    Model Y review from an mechanical and software engineer's standpoint.

    The Tesla cars can’t flip over while swerving right? Pretty sure I’ve seen moose test where it was the best SUV in that regard due to its low COG and stiff suspension

    Model Y / 3 comparison - same same but different?

    Agree with most of your observations after my MY RWD test drive. Seat height was not a surprise but as others said its the entry and exit that is significant between any sedan and SUV. The ride quality seemed really good to me and didn’t understand all those negative reviews, although i come...

    Don’t doubt it obviously, my petrol car made me forget the feeling. Still surprised at how nippy the MY RWD is.

    Tesla Model Y in Australia

    I just test drove a Model Y RWD and it was a lot better than my expectations! For reference I currently drive a Renault Koleos 2015. The major surprises: - The ride quality is great! Much better than my car which is softly sprung but still jarring over bumps and loud. The Model Y is much more...

    Tesla Model Y in Australia

    No. From what I know, the lithium ion battery technology is approaching its peak and we should only expect gradual improvements in cars over the years. Same goes for 4680 when it comes to Aus cars, Tesla will software lock its full capabilities initially till they get comfortable with it.

    Nope, will take a few years before Shanghai makes them.

    Tesla Model Y in Australia

    Are the comments valid that LR is a few weeks away? After household negotiations, decided to wait for LR, but was seriously considering Aug SR delivery.

    Tesla no longer including mobile charger bundle?

    The outrage over this is wasted, this is a non-issue as long as you can buy the mobile charger with the car and it’s not out of stock. It can save people some money that don’t need them.

    Tesla Model Y in Australia

    My main want for a Tesla is the acceleration, hers is price / practicality. LR seemed to be sweetspot

    I've been waiting years and years for fsd, and still zip, nada. Not even offered a beta test...

    Nah there is plenty of proof out there , only your post is opinion. 1. Actual historical FSD price increases 2. CEO of company disclosing this 3. Only a brain dead person can not see that if something gets better -> it’s value will rise
