    Wij hebben een Cybertruck reservatie...

    To all of you who have a reservation from Europe that you may not be able to turn into an order, in Europe, anytime soon: see here :)

    Looking to buy an early Cybertruck to bring to Europe

    Yeah – that’s not going to happen. At least not until Tesla brings it to Europe officially, but that’ll be 1-2 years at least. Mostly warranty I mean. No warranty work in Europe, until the CT is sold here. And even then most likely not for US sold vehicles. So if in that case you would be...

    Looking to buy an early Cybertruck to bring to Europe

    Yep – warranty we have considered. Our solution: if there is a warranty event that cannot be handled any other way than at Tesla in North America, like for instance a recall, we will ship it back there. And then back to Europe, again. That we have not considered... but I'm positive there might...

    Looking to buy an early Cybertruck to bring to Europe

    Hey guys, A car dealer I work with is considering buying an early Cybertruck, and shipping it to Europe. He sells a lot of pre-owned Tesla, and the idea is to have it serve as a lighthouse, to bring new customers to his business. Which it definitely would! So I am looking to buy an early...

    EU Level 2 Chanrging - Single Phase, Three Phase

    Ciao.. um, you! So you had the EnelX Wallbox first? Which means that it can't do power sharing with the Tesla Wall Connector; at least not natively. Since the Smart can charge on the TWC (as you know – but in the US that's a problem, because of the different plugs), you could hypothetically get...

    Building wide load sharing for EV charging

    Yes, currently it's up to 3 – but with a future firmware update, as I mentioned, it'll be up to 16. So the hardware is there; and we know that Tesla actually delivers on software.

    EU Level 2 Chanrging - Single Phase, Three Phase

    Ciao! Do you live in Rome directly? You mentioned an apartment. But you do have your own charging spot, with your own Tesla Wall Connector? How is public charging, in Rome? For those who don't have their own solution? Oh, and congrats to your Model Y!! 🥳

    Building wide load sharing for EV charging

    Tesla's own Wall Connector might just be able to do that. It says that Power Sharing for up to 16 units will be supported in a future firmware update... maybe someone else knows more about this? Have a look in the user manual – Power Sharing starts on page 23.

    Interested in renting a Model S in Germany and Italy

    Hi! I just stumbled upon your thread. About renting a Tesla in Munich, I suggest you drop the guys at NextMove a line (in English) at [email protected] . They are commercial, but their mission is to educate the public about EV's and to give people a chance to test them in-depth, more than it is...

    Used Tesla Inspector in Southern California?

    Here's what I would do; it'll cost you $250. Go to your local Tesla Service Center. Speak with the Service Concierge (= front desk) and explain your situation. Tell them that you'd like an experienced Service Technician to have a look at the car in their free time, and that there's $200 in it...

    Processing Speed of Touchscreen in Model X/S vs. Model 3

    Tesla will never offer such an upgrade for already sold cars; for the same reason they will never offer a battery upgrade: they want to sell new cars. I was asking to see if it was possible to create such an upgrade card independently. If it brings MCU performance on par with Model 3, I am sure...

    Processing Speed of Touchscreen in Model X/S vs. Model 3

    But is it possible? What would the CPU for such an upgrade be? And would it work with the rest of the MCU (without a firmware update that would require Tesla's support)? What would be the total cost to manufacture such an upgrade board?

    Hello from the Netherlands!

    Be advised that the free unlimited supercharging may end after April 30th. Even if you don't plan on driving long distances a lot, the peace of mind of not having to worry about how much it costs when you do is, in my opinion, priceless.

    The Optimal vs Less than Optimal Time to Buy a Tesla

    This. For everyone else: The perfect time to buy a Tesla is during the end-of-quarter sales push in September. It started on August 25th, when the prices on all inventory S 100D in Europe were dropped by €12k (~$14k). Tesla Inventory Search Go.
