Cars

Hi everyone I’m new here. I wondered if Tesla does CPO cars for rent. Please advise. Thanks

Isn't it about time that Tesla innovated its sales model, like it has everything else about cars? Please check out Know You Know's latest In Depth video regarding an idea put forward about how Tesla should sell cars; and then take the time to Tweet Elon with #salesfleet. You never know: it...

Like the title says, if the Trump plan for steel and aluminum tariffs goes into effect will this raise the price of the model 3 (and other cars). If so by how much and when?

I am definitely thinking of purchasing a Model S and take advantage of the tax credit while I can. I then realized If I can find a demo car for a relatively cheaper price and take advantage of the tax credit at the same time that would be great. Does anyone have any recommendations or websites...

Long story short Tesla is expanding to a much needed large service center in the Oslo area. Old, new and potentially new owners can take a deep breath now. (Text google translated from Norwegian). It is amazing to see the growing interest in whole-electric family cars, which has led to a...

Hello, I am seeking information as to how the EPB system works exactly in these cars. I would like to retrofit these calipers onto another vehicle, which, due to poor design properties have high failure ratings and an aftermarket supply that is even worse. I plan to use these in lieu of the...

If you would have told me 2-3 days ago that we would be the owners of a new 2018 Leaf SV with ProPILOT Assist I would’ve called you crazy, but that’s exactly what just happened today. After finding an ad for a rather substantial discount on a brand new model and being extraordinarily skeptical...

Hi all, We Canadians are waiting, with a combination of great patience and immense frustration, for our chance to configure our own cars now on reservation. A few days ago the Victoria EV Club brought a Model 3 up from the USA for us to look at, and I've made a couple of videos which are on my...

i just watched the first episode of Netflix series Dirty Money. It was about VW and how corrupt the german automaker really is and at what lengths they will go to deceive the public. It’s a must watch for anyone who is wondering why some of us are never going to purchase another ICE vehicle.

Hi guys, I am about to order my new Modal X, and I'm really torn apart between red and blue color. I am 27 female living in LA. Red looks really sexy and blue looks cool and classy. They both look very flashy in the showroom, but what about under the sunlight with a bit of dust? I mean I will...

I was super excited to get my CPO 16 Model S 70D and sang praises to Tesla. However, in my 15 months of ownership and only 47,000 miles on the car I have been to the service center 8 times for three broken door handles (replaced with previous model not the new stronger ones), needing to have...

I charge my Model S entirely from Solar power in an off grid location. When the sun goes behind a cloud I need to adjust the charge rate down a bit so I don't flatten the house battery. To do this I need to talk to the wall charger to tell it how much it can have dynamically. I am 99.9% certain...

A rat gnawed thru the brake fluid reservoir last year. I patched it up with epoxy but it is leaking again. Might have to get a new reservoir. Any suggestions what part for my dual motor S to get apart from going to Tesla?

A random thought came in my mind. What is the community's opinion on asking to charge at a friend's or family member home? I personally think a lot of people would assume it would run their electric bill sky house (my parents thought so at first lol) So I wanted everyone else's opinion of it.

I see a upcoming trend of ICE cars being parked at supercharger stalls. Is there any legal action possible?

I’m currently out of town and when I checked on my car yesterday the range was blank as well as the odometer. I called Tesla today and they said the car was in a deep sleep but I sent someone to wake the car up and the issue continues. Anyone has any ideas?

Hi all I've got a loaner 2017 brand new 100d and the sound system is great. I presumed it was the upgraded audio system but I looked in the boot and there was no sub on the left. My question is- do the new cars fitted with upgraded sound have the sub elsewhere or is it still the case that if...

...I'm going to ask it anyway. Since charge time is such a big deal with electric cars, is it possible to split a battery pack into 2 or more packs with each pack taking a charge from a separate Supercharger? And most importantly, would that speed up the charge time? It seems like it...

Since all new Tesla's contain the hardware for self driving - why doesn't Tesla treat EAP/FSD as software? For instance, wouldn't it be much better if Tesla tied EAP/FSD with the owner instead of the car? What if I can go to MyTesla and purchase EAP/FSD and tie the license to my car, when I...

Looking at cars from 1918, just to see where we were 100 years ago I can't help but wonder what cars will be like in another 100 years. thoughts? predictions?

So I was wondering around Ginza the other day and walked into the Nissan Building and wow, I didn't know the 2018 Nissan Leaf redesign was out! I know comparing the Leaf to Model 3 is like, comparing an apple with uh... cantaloupe, but... The styling was not bad (compared to the previous...

Nearly two years ago, in December 2015, I was fortunate to place an order for a new Model X 90D. The anticipation of owning and driving a brand new, and at that time, relatively rare electric SUV made by Tesla had me walking on air for the six months I waited for my Model X to be produced and...

So, I've never leased a car, and always owned my cars for 10 years or so. It seems if I buy a MS for 90K, and finance it, I have to come up with 10% down, and pay the "registration & use/sales tax" fees (~$7200). So, I need to come up with $16K. I'm then financing 81K over 72 months which...
