All the kool peoples haven’t changed
Thats how it seems to me.. script is "they'll know for sure in the coming weeks" though
Yeah, it seems they've trained the staff very well to be careful what they say and they have canned responses to specific questions.Thats how it seems to me.. script is "they'll know for sure in the coming weeks" though
On one hand, with how much the media like to jump on any hint of a false step or mispoken statement (or make them up if they can't find one), I can understand why they do that.
On the other Elon is the most 'off the cuff' type of guy who would never be able to stick to a script.
Thanks for the heads up. Seems to have dropped a little for me in the ACT since I last checked.
The insurance through my Novated Lease company is ~2k a year, but NRMA is getting close to making it worth sorting out myself.

Is there someone in Tesla Australia with a public/media profile who comments on issues? Seems a bit rough to leave the junior (customer-facing) staff to deal with all the flak generated by various issues (stinkbugs, failing to comply with ADRs, whatever else happens) without any 'air cover' from senior management.
Old-world companies like Holden (deceased), Ford, Toyota, etc. always had/have a local MD (or similar) with a public profile: someone who will step up to face the media on issues, lead the messaging at launches, etc. Doesn't seem to be any high profile person visible at Tesla. Maybe they've all pulled their heads in after someone 'mis-spoke' about Model 3 Performance at the local Highland launches a few months ago.
Yeah, I know they are not a 'traditional car company' (or even a car company at all, according to his Elon-ness), but I reckon that a more pro-active approach to PR and market communications would pay off in spades. Now would be a great time to get out in front of the ADR issues with a clear statement. You'd settle all the on-line speculation, get the automotive press off their high-horses and take some pressure off the staff. Something like: "We messed up. Sorry about that. The fix for delivered cars is [x]. This activity will begin on [date] and take [xx] months. The fix for cars still in the pipeline is [y]. Deliveries will re-commence on [date]."
This isn't rocket science. (Maybe if it WAS rocket science, we'd see some more news.)
I'm available to help with messaging if anyone in Telsa cares to 'reach out' (I hate that expression).

Does it have the newer higher quality cameras?

The big news of the day was Tesla bringing its latest hardware 4 to its Model Y, expanding the new Autopilot hardware beyond just Model S and Model X vehicles. Thanks to some Tesla community members, we now have some up-close images comparing hardware 4 to hardware 3. The first images were...

It is HW4. Front bumper camera is not related to HW4.
HW3.5 was an unofficial thing that referred to the Model Y's in the US that had the new cameras but HW3 computer.
So HW3.5 is HW4 computer minus front bumper camera and radar or is it HW3 Computer plus better cameras?
Even though HW4 computer won't feel better now or even worse compared to HW3 now it has potential to be a lot better in a couple of months/years.
20 core cpu vs 12 core cpu
3 NN cores vs 2NN cores
14nm vs TSMC 7nm(much lower power)
Not that It makes a lot of difference for people like me who don't have any plan to subscribe to FSD. But still feels good to know the full technical specs for inner techie..

Once I was informed that the my car had arrived in Australia, I went to Freo port and registered this beauties. My delivery date is still from 21st January... It's is such a lose lose scenario keeping these in a warehouse. Everybody loses, I hope some common sense prevails and cars on the country are delivered and "fixed" at a latter date.
