Had my car for a few days now. Loving every part of it! Coming from a 2006 Honda Civic, it’s a huge jump in every way. Rides smooth and quietly, acceleration is quick, the stereo with the immersive audio sounds so clear and rich, ride height and visibility are great, the headlights and high beams are so bright and light the road so evenly, seats are nice and comfy, build quality is great (no creaks or large gaps), and so much cargo space!
I’ve been charging from a regular outlet at my parking spot. I get about 15-20% charge overnight, supplemented by some supercharging when needed. I went from 40%-80% at a 70kWH supercharger, about 150km added range, and it only cost $1.50! So cheap!
So grateful and amazed.
Great to finally see a whole photo of one of our cars. I know it looks like any other MY but still good to see it. Congrats. I bought a new Civic in 2008 so I know what a step up your Tesla is. The Civic was good but the road noise made me sell it. Every post I read here makes me want my Tesla more. I sold my truck so now I'm counting the days. Looking forward to detailing and not pumping gas or changing oil.
Congrats both on your new MYs! Happy to see the consistency of the build quality for deliveries so far.
I was passing by Tesla Oakville tonight. Thought I would do a quick scan of the lot and the two auxiliary lots to check for MY RWD cars. Nothing yet.
Picking blue up on the 12…but I’m in Toronto not Ottawa
Range shows 394 at 100% after software update.
Congrats! Do you figure your car was on the first shipment or the second?
Yes having same noise, not sure its normal or not.
Lets wait for some more responses
I was there yesterday to pick up a LR, but denied delivery due to pretty bad issues (Fremont LR). I kept comparing every issue to a RWD model right behind it and it was perfect.
Issues if you guys are curious:
-white on bumper didn’t match rest of the car (bumper had yellowish creme tint while rest of car had bright white paint with flakes)
-back of front seats had deep scratches in plastic, looked like wolverine scratched it (entire seat would have to be replaced I think)
-Driver door handle didn’t close on its own
-more panel gaps than I could count (including none of the trim around the window lining up)
I told them I’d wait for a Shanghai LR (I’m fine with waiting). Other Fremont builds there had exactly the same issues. It’s an expensive car so I’d like it to be perfect.
yes its normal...if u check out the model y owners video that tesla sends you it stats that the noise u hear is the car cooling the battery
Got a minor software update last night on MY rwd, before it was reporting 435km on full charge now after update reporting 394 kms range, same as EPA!
