there is a lot to say for a Tesla for a kid if one has the money -
1. Safety
2. We only have Teslas at the moment and we were not going to buy a car for the year of learners permit year.
3. The accident rate is high for younger kids, I assume there is a chance that they would hit some one else’s beloved Tesla (a lot around here) and having the crash avoidance might prevent it.
4. She drives very carefully knowing it’s my beloved car.
5. If we do set her free in it, TeslaFi tracks every move.
Of course my plan is to get her a cheaper yet still safe car when she gets her license. One with a 75 mile range is about perfect. Otherwise my State Farm agent will buy a new lake house in my behalf.
But I’m not planning to outright ban the kid from the Tesla. Yet.
