    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    I wouldn't call it the Lucid strategy as Tesla has been doing this since its inception, and it wasn't an original concept then either.

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    I believe they already realize they need better camera and radar resolution, however, they will do whatever is necessary to release 'Autoseet on City Streets' so that they technically fulfill the obligation to existing FSD customers before releasing any Autopilot hardware upgrades.

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    I am with you on that, 20k between the old 2021 LR vs Performance was an easy decision, the new gap is a bit harder to swallow especially now that LR is a satisfactory level of acceleration. Plaid+ is outside of what I will spend for a vehicle at this stage in my life, but then again I never...

    my S is a different car in winter vs. summer

    The Model S/X did not get 250kW capable charging until June 2020 via a software update, and it is not clear when the hardware related implementation was.

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Curious if anyone else got an S trade quote back yet? They quoted me $86,400 for a 2021 Model S Performance, White/Carbon interior, FSD & 808 miles (80% of which is driving back and forth to Tesla to address QA issues). So about 17% depreciation since December.

    Model S purchase

    Carbon Fiber Decor + how can you pass in Ludicrous+ w/ cheetah stance? No doubt the LR+ issa better value, but the thrill is so worth it. If I wasn't already spoiled by a Model 3 Performance, I might have been satisfied with the LR+.

    2019-2021 differences?

    By no means a comprehensive list, but here are some changes I am aware of after the initial introduction of the Raven powertrain Model S Performance. Telsa makes lots of minor tweaks we may never even know about. December 2019 - Lighter generation 5 seats made in-house introduced. January 2020...

    Any Model S or X received the Holiday update yet? What about external speakers on s/X?

    I think it started with this blog post, Model 3 achieves the lowest probability of injury of any vehicle ever tested by NHTSA, Elon has also Tweeted statements to this effect. The claim has been debated, perhaps not true, however, it was engineered with lessons learned from the S in mind. I...

    Major 2021 Model X refresh pending [Update: Unveiled January 27, 2021]

    There are few who can afford an S/X that would settle for a 3/Y. The 3/Y are a fantastic value proposition, but the suspension alone makes them a non-starter for the S/X target audience.

    Any Model S or X received the Holiday update yet? What about external speakers on s/X?

    I acknowledge there are many manufacturing advances in the 3/Y, however, pretend you never owned a Tesla and simulate a decision between the 3 and the S. They are different in that the S is similar to the 3 just better, and you pay for the improvements. Seems logical to me, and none of the new...

    Missed the Order Cutoff

    If you do not find a match for the configuration you are looking for Tesla's website will show you available options outside of the stated search range. You could also contact Tesla and they can look for you.

    Any Model S or X received the Holiday update yet? What about external speakers on s/X?

    There are hundreds of thousands of Model 3's that did not and will not get this 'feature'. My Model S did get the boombox feature, and I believe all EVs from all brands are required to have a PWS from September 2019 onward. What year/month was your Model S produced? You should be able to find...

    Horrible experience picking up my THIRD S car

    At my delivery appointment, I was told they cannot legally remove it as it is included when crash tested, which both sounded legit and BS at the same time, but nonetheless my detailer removed it when I took the vehicle for a ceramic coating. I am with you in saying Tesla customer service is hit...

    2021 Model 3 Perf vs 2021 Model S LR Plus

    The 3 is most definitely a better bang for the buck, but, they are also not targeting the same audience.

    New Buyer Questions

    Out of curiosity, why do you see people needing to travel so much further without needing to stop in the future?

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Tesla is a catalyst for change in the world and I strongly support their mission. I can't say that about the Girl Scouts, and I'd need to know about the magazine fundraiser before commenting on that.

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Thanks, since Tesla was unable to sell me tires they offer i ended up buying TSportline TSS 20" wheels with Pirelli winter tires, and they will install them at my delivery appointment as long as I sign a waiver. My only issue now is they dropped my Model 3 trade value 4% even after accounting...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    My delivery date is scheduled for 11/30. Three weeks ago had inquired about having my tires swapped to winter tires at delivery since it starts dipping below 40 degrees in my region regularly this time of year. I tried to reach operations and service to no avail. Leaving a message with anyone at...

    Noticed my overview was updated with a VIN today! The estimated delivery is Nov. 25th - Dec. 1st. I am on the east coast. Now I just need to decide on a paint protection product.

    With current Warranty restrictions is anyone thinking of buying used MS from Tesla?

    One year for CPO seems to be pretty normal, however, the mileage restriction is the differentiator. I've never driven anywhere near 10k miles in a year, so that seems like a lot to me. How much do you drive per year?

    Used 2017 Model S 90D vs 2021 Model S
