Model Y UK Delivery

Tesla is a company that thrives on data. Note they're being very selective about which Supercharger sites they open up to other EVs and are monitoring their usage. They certainly don't want to risk causing frustration or alienating their existing customer base by just flicking a switch and opening all sites up for everyone. If you're not aware, the reason they've chosen to do this so broadly in the Netherlands is because they're served very well by other rapid charging networks as well. The situation in the UK is different and I agree that suddenly opening up the Superchargers here would be a bad move - which is why they haven't done so.
Apple have also existed for 26 years longer than Tesla.
Just like with Tesla service, it depends who you ask. Apple is rated "Bad" with 1.7 / 5 on Trustpilot
I've had very good service from Tesla but haven't shared my experiences. Much better than I had from Jaguar or Renault for the previous cars (also EVs) I owned. I'm confident I'm part of a quiet majority here and honestly think the criticisms are overblown.
I was really surprised. I preconditioned the car before we set off but didn’t on the return journey. I’m quite lucky as our electric tariff is fixed until September at 5p and KW so it’s saving so much compared to my old 3litre diesel BMW.

Isn't it new EU directives that are forcing them to open up the Supercharger network in Europe? They will find a way of doing it that doesn't inconvenience Tesla drivers too much. So maybe not in UK and anyway probably split facilities - Tesla this side, other crap that side (and Teslas if they're desperate)!

You really don't want to look at the Tesla trustpilot page..
No other EV has so much room versus exterior size - Tesla so much better at packaging their power train - the latest BMW iX is quite telling on that. You should look the Model S Plaid tear down on Munro Live channel. Really telling.
No other OEM is able to provide the efficiency of Tesla, using the same LG battery technology - likely to take more years to catch up.
No other OEM able to really improve the car over the air - the whole architecture philosophy is preventing them to do so. Volkswagen ID software architecture is a disaster.
So to me, it’s really not only about the supercharger network… that’s only the cherry on the cake
Having looked at various companies there, I think they should probably rename themselves Rantpilot. Quite funny if you look at "reviews" of Trustpilot themselves as well. Trustpilot Reviews - Read 2,100 Genuine Customer Reviews | www.trustpilot.com

MYLR White on White with Geminis
Yeah, you are quite right. A lot of EV manufacturers use the engine bay for a slew of systems, essentially taking away space that could be used for luggage as a froot / frunk.
I guess you also didn't mention the processes and technologies that go into the automated production line, and the amount of volume they can pump out in their Gigafactories. So I think you are right in saying they're several years ahead in all those regards!
I agree with the above points, however most of these aren’t as visible to someone making a buying decision as the Supercharger network is.
My MY says the drive is not connected in the glove box. It is though. Anyone else had this problem. Cheers for any advice

Does any one know why I am losing miles so rapidly while being parked ? I was at 294 miles when I parked , drove just 2miles and today I am at 243 !
Sentry mode alone cannot be draining this much juice for sure !

TrustPilot is bollocks, and it’s refreshing that Tesla and Apple haven’t bought into the TP scam.
Wren Kitchens, for example, are a complete shower of sh17 yet score 4.6 because they are able to manipulate the reviews by paying a subscription.
Plug the drive into a computer and see if there is a folder called TeslaCam on the drive, if not, create that folder and try it in the car.
I believe if you can leave the charging cable plugged in even after it has finished charging, unplug when ready to drive it will be better. I think Tesla also advises this.
I can replay dashcam footage. There is a dot below the bell symbol. Press the symbol and says it is an active alert.

So many things affect the mileage estimates. This is an impossible question to answer. Switch to % then post what you are loosing. But just so you are aware if not already. An M3 loses 200-300 wh per hour on Sentry which would be 6-9% of an MY battery in 24hours. With the new Ryzen processor MY may be worse. So don't underestimate Sentry range loss
