Model Y UK Delivery

[skriv]

Worth passing on that Ys are being released from Southampton with only 34% charge.

I stood for a while in large queue for seven london bound chargers, (Fleet?) with only a few miles range left, I gave up as not dressed for the cold. Am now putting in 24mph at Camberley Tescos.

If Tesla keep trying to release 1, 000 undercharged cars in a day, suggest bringing good winter outdoor clothes & an umberella for the long supercharger queues.

Or else research non Tesla chargers nearby.

Or else plan hang around Southampton until very late. Disapointing start to the wonders of electric driving.

Has anyone from South Wales had a delivery date yet? I'm still waiting for even an initial date range text, and holding out on the lease company's assurance that I'll get it in March...

MY MSM Black/White 20” being delivered 2nd march. Had date confirmed on the 11th Feb. Newport area.

I picked up the Y at Southampton today. It was a good well planned for event where they kept upping the anticipation with each 'room' you went into. Finally I picked it up and the weather was not easy to check out the paint work, noticed a small minor scratch once it dried when I got home.

Apart from that all was good. Winchester 10am Monday for the service to look at it, so can't complain. Especially as some folks had their delivery cancelled as they were written off from falling debris yesterday. Anyway Home now and I called her 'Dracarys' as it is the command for dragons to breathe fore in Game of Thrones and it has a CAR and Y next to each other.

Oh if anyone just types in the address they text you in waze be careful it doesn't send you to Bournemouth LOL luckily I spotted it when my daughter said 2 hours from Basingstoke... LOL

What a great car! I was expecting larger M3 (after owning M3), but it is a better more premium car in my opinion. The UI is very different, the ride feels very different, the space is huge. After a 2 hours drive from Southampton, I'm very happy so far. Seems to be just the perfect car!

I saw the carwow review where Matt started with calling model Y as an enlarged model 3. After a test drive, I genuinely realized how biased carwow was against Tesla, so start watching more Rory on autotrader and Bjorn Nyland. Model Y definitely feels premium and is an absolute steal at £60k. There is no other equivalent EV SUV from anyone else at that price point.

I'm curious: without having experienced a Model 3 and version 11 excluding, I assumed they had an identical interface?

What sorts of things are different?

The UI is identical, I assume they just weren't use to V11.

 

[Carrickal]

What spec did you order?

Had ordered performance but changed to White black interior 19” (thought it would be quick) when dates went out to year end

 

[TSL_LHR]

Maybe my UI was not V11, I had a 2021 Model 3 that I had delivered in Dec 2020 and all of the up-to-date software. So not sure if these v11 ones are on newer M3s too. If so, my mistake. But I had a different UI on my M3

Wonder why they can't ship Teslas with a slightly larger charge in them. Hopefully not just for speed of output?

Am I the only one that was not aware of the Acceleration boost for £1500 in the upgrades???

Am I the only one that was not aware of the Acceleration boost for £1500 in the upgrades???

For you or anyone that's had the boost in the past is it worth it? 1.5K for a 0.5sec shaving off 0-60 seems not, but maybe i'm just boring

Saturday night, a few beers in and oops, £1500. Classic upsell model (on steroids)….

Drops 0-60 from 4.8 to 4.2 approx

I would rather pay to unlock an extra 5kwhs in the battery!!!

Honestly in standard mode and the instant torque of an EV in my opinion there is no need. But that’s my opinion, I also think 19 wheels is more than enough as well as the ride is quite firm as the M3.

I bought it for my Model 3 and don't regret it at all. But I'm an acceleration freak, the type who slightly regrets not geting the Performance Model 3. Totally understand why people would find it too expensive, but I think it's well worth it if you'll really enjoy the extra acceleration. It's not just the 0-60mph that feels significantly faster, it's also very noticeable from a roll. Same would apply for the Model Y, it would be an instant purchase for me.
