This guy gets it, am I correct?Better than mashing the wrong pedal.
Luckily, we agree on everything that I care about, except AP. She doesn't think she'll use it.Oh, one more thing and it's important. Be sure to make her an equal partner in the selection of colors and options. That way she's just as vested and excited about it as you are.
The massive amount of acceleration affects people in unpredictable ways, so maybe leave that out of the first drive. I gave my best friend -- who is a car nut -- a ride which included a 0-60 launch and he kindly asked me to never ever do that again.
Everyone who drives my Tesla loves it and loves it quick. But the women that have fall in love almost even quicker and it is always the smooth ride. I think they really notice and appreciate the smooth ride and lack of shifting. It is always the first thing I hear. Also I think that the acceleration is so fun but you feel in control the entire time makes it less like a boys race car.
Let's not indulge too much in gender stereotypes that women don't enjoy or appreciate the more "fun" aspects.Awesome.
First, safety.
Second. safety. Show the you tube videos of the crash tests.
Third. safety. Yes, 3x is the charm.
Fourth. Savings on gas. Run the spreadsheet --> 100K miles on gas $3/gal 25 mpg vs $.11 per kWh x size of battery x range. That in itself is compelling.
Fifth. If they can pull the battery pack out in 10 yrs and charge you < $10K, you have.... a brand new car basically. For <$10K.
The car sells itself.
Unless you've been driving some sort of EV before, definitely agree with this.Put regen on low setting for her first drive. Some find standard setting it too much at first.
Also depends on what you're used to. If you're used to sporty, the sport setting is nice/fun.Also put steering on comfort setting. Nice and easy to steer.
Not too sure why people are saying to turn on creep, and turn off regen to make the car into a pseudo-ICE for the test drive. Isn't that being kind of condescending? "Only a man can handle what an EV really feels like. Women can't handle cars that stay still until the accelerator is pressed, and a car slowing down when the accelerator is released."
