    Tesla Model Y in Australia

    LOL - this was funny. You are a true comedian. You are implying my head is in my ass. I get it. I've already been told I am an asshat on this forum. So you are kind of late to the party Max G. You are not pulling out original jokes out of your... hat? Meanwhile, just curious. Does any of you...

    Tesla Model Y in Australia

    Absolutely. Will do. I agree, it was immature to try to be witty stereotyping people who have been sarky in prior posts and biting back. However, I guess that it is acceptable and in line with forum policy to call someone an asshole for being witty 🤔 ? I don't even know this guy...👇...

    Tesla Model Y in Australia

    So true. I came here loaded with cash to buy a house and two Tesla Model Y, directed by the almighty Google searching for when Model Y would hit the sandy shores of Australia as it is impossible to get a new Model X. However, I got none the wiser and it feels Tesla has very little interest in...

    Tesla Model Y in Australia

    I've prepared this post especially for Tesla fanboys to get their jucies pumping. GrimRe - you with me? You've been awfully quiet this morning o_O "I never really wanted the Model Y anyway because [I wanted something much better...Like this "motored brute of a Tesla Killer reaches a full...

    Tesla Model Y in Australia

    Tesla fanboy is back!!! No one really says this. Why so overly protective? The problem is that Tesla have their head up their derrière when it comes to information and interest in Australia. Model Y "Stay tuned"... LOL! What a joke. Model X & S delivery Q4 2022. Seriously. To all Tesla...

    Tesla Model Y in Australia

    X-mas comes early this year. Ordered Ioniq 5 as I need an SUV. I'll get it November. THIS year. Maybe you guys get lucky and you get your Model Y before Christmas - NEXT year. At least by the look of things in China...I heard they have a shortage of electricity... Apparently Australian coal is...

    Tesla Model Y in Australia

    With the risk of having my post overanalyze by fanboys with answers to everything, I can only express the obvious. Sorry. But it is not Tesla vs BMW. It is Tesla vs the rest of the market. It is called market share. Australia seems nonexistent to Tesla judging by the latest news. Delivery of...

    Tesla Model Y in Australia

    Considering solar in Australia and that the country is a wealthy one, one might think that it would be good to position oneself early. Have you ever been to LA? The number of Teslas on the road is insane. All models available. Yes, other brands will eventually offer more for less

    Tesla Model Y in Australia

    The main problem is that now that so many companies are onboard BEV and rushing through to production means that Tesla's advantage is fading rapidly. The fact that people are quite brand loyal in the premium segment makes it difficult to change people's minds. Someone who has been buying BMW...

    Tesla Model Y in Australia

    What you say makes sense and I hope the people at Tesla are ready to flick that switch so the button says "Order Now - Special Price" instead of "Stay Updated". I sincerely hope that Australia isn't neglected, although things seem awfully different here in comparison to Europe. I'm after two...

    Spare tyre under-trunk modification for Model Y?

    Thanks for the measurements! Seems like the trunk is different from earlier design I've seen unfortunately...

    Tesla Model Y in Australia

    Thanks for the answers. EQA would have been a choice, but after checking it out its not a option for rear seat passangers. Just like almost every other manufacturer, they've ripped out the engine and slapped in a battery without changing much in the size of the car. You almost have to squat in...

    Tesla Model Y in Australia

    BMW IX3/IX, Mercedes EQA/EQC, Volvo XC40 Recharge. Not so much into Jaguar and I don't think I want to touch a Ford (ehummm Mustang). Please note, my intention is not really to compare these cars with each other, or even worse, Tesla. I've only driven the IX3 and XC40 and I feel they are...

    Tesla Model Y in Australia

    I'm at crossroad. IF I knew MY deliveries would start in December up to February latest, I would wait for MY. But since I want an SUV/crossover, model 3 is not for me. The only alternative I'm not so keen on is MX which is listed at end of 2022 (!) Basically M3 is the only Tesla you can get...

    Spare tyre under-trunk modification for Model Y?

    Thanks. I'll definitely have to look into this. I'm no expert on Tesla and the more advanced electronics in the car so I don't really know how much leeway the Tesla has for negative rolling diameter of say -0.5 o -1". A prehistoric car would barely complain. Newer cars, as you say, just kill...

    Spare tyre under-trunk modification for Model Y?

    Thanks SpaceShipDrvr. I've seen this post and it is my last resort solution even though it isn't a pretty one. The Modern Spare can't go as far as the Vredestein which feels like a more robust tyre, but the negative is that it carries a much wider footprint. I'm still hoping I can fit a...

    Model Y spare tire?

    I didn't see this post until now and I'd like to follow up on of having a spare Expandable / Collapsible tyre in the below trunk area. I just posted a question on the forum Spare tyre under-trunk modification for Model Y? My thoughts are to use a Vredestein Expandable / Collapsible tyre...

    Spare tyre under-trunk modification for Model Y?

    Hi forum members. I'm hoping to get my first Tesla Model Y in a few months but what irks me is that there is no spare tyre like an older S model. I have an idea of a possible modification to store a spare tyre in stead of the under-trunk well. However, I need to verify if this is possible with...
