Still surprised they have not rolled out the new battery packs across the whole range of Tesla products. Seems only the Model S & X are still using the old battery packs. Where as the Model 3 & the power walls use the newer 2170 form factor cells. Also surprised the motors also have not been...

Great news for Model 3 owners - Tesla's Model 3 can now park itself with Summon feature. Lets hope this means that we will see a refresh on the Model S with better tech and features then the Model 3. I don't see enough of a difference in features to justify changing from my current MS to a...

Model X looks amazing. I would have thought by now that Tesla would have offered this a an option for new orders.

Extremely Dangerous Chemicals: Dangerous, aggressive chemicals are sprayed onto your paint to break-down dirt to make it easier to come off when rinsed-down with pressurized water. These chemicals will strip away your wax protection, damage your chrome trim, and stain your rubber seals. I...

New Interior, New Battery Technology ( the 2170 li-ion cell), New Sports suspension (To improve handling). New tech for Autopilot would be nice but not a deal breaker. Happy to drive the car myself ;)

Maybe with some help from Audi they will launch something sooner then later. Time will tell. Audi Newsroom The History of Audi piloted driving In 2005, Audi and Stanford University were fastest to complete a 150-mile course, winning that year’s DARPA Grand Challenge for automated vehicles...

If Porsche is planning to launch Level 4 in 2019. Lets hope Tesla is ready before them ;) Porsche's all-electric rival to the Tesla Model S is scheduled to go on sale in 2019 and will spawn multiple variants Blume also confirmed that Porsche plans for the Taycan to have Level 4 autonomous...

According to Porsche, Taycan is a word taken from an eastern dialect and is pronounced ‘tie-can’. It translates as ‘lively young horse’ and is a reference to the horse that’s been rearing up on its hind legs on the Porsche badge since 1952.

Will be interested to see what Tesla comes up with given Porsche will soon launch their first all Eletric car the "Taycan" . Hoping the next versions of the Model S & X will have a firmer suspension for handling the corners. This could be why we have not seen the revision yet. Maybe Tesla was...

I have a cover. Like others I always wash my car before putting it on. I tend to use it when the car is sitting outside in the sun for extended periods of time. I do this as I want to protect the paint and finish on the wheels when ever possible. Happy with the purchase and would purchase one...

Like in the 80's with the 5.0 Mustang and young driver. Tyres wear depends how the car is driven. Sorry to see the damage caused. It's a powerful car for any new driver Would be great if you could get Tesla could add parental controls so one could limit power for teenagers. Maybe insurance...

Surprised we did not hear anything regarding model s or x upcoming refresh. Only about the model Y. Any thoughts on this?

\ Thank you that was going to be my next question. Sorry to hear your car got keyed. Agree a paint job would have cost a lot more.

Thank you for the information. I was more concerned with the wheel wells and suspension in regions where they still use brine solutions (magnesium chloride) that are effective for safety, but take an immense toll on your car. Have been washing my wheel wells regularly.

Seems very expensive for plastic wrap. Would it not be cheaper just to touch up the paint if you get some rock chips? Don't get me wrong the car looks great with he wrap. The cost I can't get my head around. Maybe Tesla should offer this as an add as their is a good margin in it. Have you...
