What he said +I wouldn't look at it as a "money saving" proposition at all. I love my S60, but there are definitely + and -
Pros :
- The car is great to drive, regen braking is amazing once you get used to it, the overall vehicle dynamics is really excellent
- Lots of space, big boot, interior is a nice place to be
- car looks really nice IMO
- I think the car is great in the city to outer city, highways are a bit noisy compared to luxury ICE cars
- EAP and Auto-steer when we eventually do get them is going to be awesome (fingers crossed)
- Tech is quite nice even with some missing features
- Feels good to drive a car with no fumes and no noise, silent luxury is something I love
- Runs cheap if you compare to big luxury cars that do 15-17 mpg on premium. Compared to 30-40mpg cars, its not really going to save much if anything
- I have no issues with the range, 180+ miles is plenty for me with the option to go to 200+ if needed for trips
Cons:
- S60 registration+insurance is quite a bit more than ICE cars here in CA
- Quality seems to have taken a back seat at Tesla, there are new cars with atleast one issue or inspection miss
- Lots of cheap looking parts here and there in the interior, fit of panels not precise etc
- Service centers are clogged, delays are normal
- Parts are literally non-existant at this point. Amazing that someone can tell you they don't have parts for a car being manufactured quite literally in the same facility
- Third party network has ways to go
- The company seems focussed on pushing cars out and planning for the 3, and not really about supporting its current base at this point
- Lots of delays in getting features out. Example: Folks who paid for auto-pilot and auto-steer late last year and got their car have had the car for like 6 months now without getting the features, many folks here are okay with that, but many aren't, especially if you leased your car, you are well into your lease without features you have paid for
- Lots of oversight on basic things like vanity lights, trunk lights, storage space, no adaptive volume, no waypoints in nav, etc etc. Get a good idea on what you are getting and what you will be missing out compared to your ICE car
- Cost of repairs seems ridiculously high from many examples on this forum
- So is cost of service, Tesla service plan is among the most expensive I have seen in the luxury car industry. YOU WILL NOT SAVE MONEY ON SERVICE, that is just a lie unless you plan on skipping them and doing them yourself which is true about just any car.
Range anxiety does exist, don't let anyone tell you it doesn't. But I used to worry about it in my ICE car as well as I didn't really want to fill up in random stations anyway. It gets worse if you go longer distances without planning properly or if there are traffic conditions or weather conditions that prevent you from hitting the super-charger you desperately need to. But on a day to day basis, it should not and will not affect you. You will figure it out and plan accordingly.
But really, its a whole different experience and IMO its worth it, but you have to decide for yourself if its worth the risk and hassle as a lot of folks don't seem to realize this until after they have bought the car.
One last benefit you can't put a price on is everywhere you go, you’ll be a celebrity. Absolutely no one will notice or even care that you have a base S 60. People will stop at crosswalks to take pictures of your car and people will want to talk with you about the car every day.
Apparently solid glass roof is loud right now. Something to do with the seals not fully production ready yet. Test drive one before you order a solid glass roof (at freeway speeds).
