    Latest update

    I can agree with the last point. They probably cant. What they could have done, however, is set the advertised range in line with reality. About the wipers. Tesla implemented the vision only when it was not ready to detect rain properly. They hope to fix it in the future. Please replace your...

    Would you Purchase a model Y Again?

    Yes, I know. It is about the margin of error. There is easily a difference of 25 to 30%. That is unacceptable. On top, it seems like it is by design. If what stated in the article is true, then it is fraudulent. Besides the (imo fraudulent) range, I find that my tolerance for this car is very...

    Would you Purchase a model Y Again?

    You say buying Tesla is a mistake?

    Would you Purchase a model Y Again?

    Thank your for your reply. For me, having bought a car with an advertised mileage of 533 (100% MYLR) and reaching getting 75% of it, is not about buyer beware. This is just plain lying. On top, Tesla knows (https://www.reuters.com/investigates/special-report/tesla-batteries-range/). This is...

    phantom Braking

    Exactly, it is both annoying and leads to potential unsafe situations. The car gives warnings for no reason, brakes for no reason. It is annoying. It is unsafe.

    Latest update

    The latest update was about : easier manual adjustment of windshield wipers (with scroll wheel) INSTEAD of making the software better in recognizing the amount of rain adding Audible INSTEAD of adding Google Auto (that has all these functions) adding games INSTEAD of ensuring that the car can...

    Would you Purchase a model Y Again?

    I guess the "hat shelf" refers to the Parcel Shelf, which Tesla devotes and entire page to for "concealing cargo", but I don't think that will assuage him. Well, we call it a hat shelf ;-) Have you ever tried to get it completely out of the trunk? About all cars have a self-retracting parcel...

    Would you Purchase a model Y Again?

    You all seem so satisfied with your car. Reading this forum convinced my to go for Tesla. My experience is different. Coming home after a three-week holiday and finding your car with 10% SOC less, I find peculiar. It is akin to buying a petrol car with a shrinking petrol tank. But tell me...

    Would you Purchase a model Y Again?

    Try to sell the car without accepting a few thousands loss. The price plummeted just after we bought it with more than 6K. Tesla vision parking assist is like a blob of ink on your screen. Blurry lines are a suggestion, not accurate. Hat shelf is the cover in the trunk. Just try to get it out...

    Would you Purchase a model Y Again?

    Oh, I forgot the extremely disappointing quality of seats. It feels like being trapped in a plastic bag. Belgium is not a desert country, but after an hour of driving, your behind and back is completely damp. They call it ‘vegan leather’. Just call it what it is : a plastic wrap.

    Would you Purchase a model Y Again?

    NO! NEVER AGAIN A TESLA. I just don' understand why so many people are satisfied with their Tesla. I would understand if your previous vehicle was a soap box. But, I'm sorry, it is impossible to call Tesla a decent car. Just don't know where to start : Automatic windshield wipers are never...

    Wh/km (or mi) / range grossly mis-advertised, if not fraudulent... srsly.

    I have made up my mind. For me, Tesla (or EVs in general) is not worth it. Call me stubborn not not willing to change, but the ease of a good old diesel car is just what I want. No need to organize my life around a car and its limited range. You can just fuel everywhere in a few minutes and...

    Wh/km (or mi) / range grossly mis-advertised, if not fraudulent... srsly.

    Hello Need, Thank you for helping me analyze the numbers. What is your thought about the actual/indicated range of 76,5%. Is this within expectations? How would it change over time with battery degradation? Would it be significantly different in warmer weather? I still need to get used to the...

    Wh/km (or mi) / range grossly mis-advertised, if not fraudulent... srsly.

    Concerns about consumption and range. Can anyone help me analyse these figures please? I recently did a trip with the family : Model Y Long Range 100% charged outside temperature 12°C Family : 2 adults and 2 smaller children 186 km one way. We had something small to eat nearby and drove 385...

    Questions on real electricity consumption

    Hello all, I am hoping to gather some information about the real electricity consumption of an EV. Advertised we see the number of kWh / 100 km. But is there any other electricity consumption we should take into account? I am thinking e.g. of the fact that the Tesla is best plugged in as...
