    Supercharger - Camberwell, Vic

    If they made Richmond v3s and people only had to stop for 15 mins I think that would go along way to resolving the congestion issue. but yes, obviously agree that more options are better

    [VIC] ASG 231

    If ASG-231 needs to charge, then ASG-231 should plug their vehicle into the outlet, rather than just parking and taking up the space for someone who does need to charge

    [VIC] ASG 231

    The EV bays in the AC/DC Garage are not EV Valet. If you’re not charging, park in one of the other 10000 vacant spots. Some people travel distances and need to charge their car to make it home.

    Navigate On Autopilot in Australia

    James which vehicle are you in? I used NoA for the first time today, Bendigo to Melbourne, return. I went straight to no confirmation Mad Max, because otherwise what’s the point... In general I was unimpressed - if I am in the left lane it indicates right when passing an off ramp, as in, it...

    Air Quality in Canberra worst in the world today.

    I drove down to Melbourne this morning where air quality is poor/very poor so thought I would give Bioweapon mode a shot. Since it turns the system to auto and cranks the fan at 9 or 10 I found it rather annoying and turned it off after a few minutes. Sitting in traffic with no engine noise but...

    How good are Tesla’s in Australia’s extreme heat?

    I only used the car for about an hour yesterday but the trip included multiple stops where I was able to use climate keeper, which is an absolute godsend when it’s 44 degrees outside

    Superchargers in Australia

    Can someone explain why charging rates are variable? Sometimes I will charge at my local supercharger and get 95Kw and others only 55, even when I’m the only vehicle charging.

    Drive Car of the Year...powered by BP

    They have justified their choice here. EV's arent' for everyone. The Rav4 is a sub $50k car, which is more in the ballpark of most Australians than a $70k starting point of a Model 3. Just as the story says, the Lambo and 911 are epic cars but they didn't choose them either...

    Road Tax for EVs

    I love regionally and work in Melbourne. We are approx 160km from the city. If I drive on a daily basis (I don’t) it’s roughly a 2 hour e/w commute but essentially costs me nothing because I drive an EV, charge on solar and have free parking. Under this plan I have two options. If I continue...

    Considering taking the car to the drag strip

    Clearly there are not many EVs going to the drags yet. While I agree they are ICE centric, I am not surprised, that’s why people who go to the drags are called ‘petrol heads’. I’m sure as more EV makers appear with cars that are capable of taking on some of the traditional attendees, they will...

    Model S Tinting

    Couple of questions, if anyone could help :) Tinting rear windscreen of the Model S - it's double glazed, so is this a no-no? Recommendation for someone in Melbourne CBD to tint? Thanks!

    Who’s got V10 in Aus?

    I have a Model S with FSD and got v10 last week. My wife has an X with FSD and got v10 the following day. I don’t have NoA options available to me yet though.

    Anyone bought a "raven" Model S in Australia?

    I did Melbourne to Bendigo return from 88%, got to Bendigo with 52%, picked up 8% on a destination charger and got back to Melbourne with 27%. It’s about 300km return. 80% charge tells me around 450km range.

    Anyone bought a "raven" Model S in Australia?

    Melbourne Delivery called me this morning with an update on my S, but since they know we both ordered cars I asked about the X. I had tried calling the last few days, but their phone goes straight to voicemail.

    My wife's X, which was ordered in May, is due in October, which our Delivery Specialist confirmed today. Seems likely some 3's would push out to then as well.

    Anyone bought a "raven" Model S in Australia?

    I actually don't mind the wait. When I originally ordered in April, I had a VIN after about 5 days, but then they announced the Raven so my order got set back. Fine, ultimately the upgrades are worth the wait. The problem for me is the lack of transparency. I understand they are flat out now...

    Anyone bought a "raven" Model S in Australia?

    We have a Model X LR and a S P100D since April/May, same situation. Melbourne deliveries not answering the phone or emails. Do the VIN sequences on the S and X cars align with the 3s? Just trying to get an idea based on the work done in the other thread around timelines.

    Tesla Model 3 in Australia

    I agree and it’s so frustrating, but clearly they are getting slammed and have next to no experience managing this volume of deliveries. By the responses we are getting, I’d say they don’t have any communications team in Australia because the emails they send are bullshit and it’s clear the...

    Tesla Model 3 in Australia

    Is there anyone in this thread, in Melbourne, waiting on an S or X that would care to share a status? Both mine and my wife’s are sitting on ‘final invoice soon’ since Thursday. My wife had a hidden vin for her Model X that disappeared yesterday.

    Ordering Nightmare - Australia

    I’m in the exact same boat. I ordered an S in April, my wife an X in May. Neither car is here. We have both completed the checkout process now, thankfully. I expect our cars to be on the same boats as the 3s. As I said in the other post, the sales service is so far below acceptable I wouldn’t...

    Anyone bought a "raven" Model S in Australia?

    I don't know. I ordered my Model S at the beginning of April, only for it to be delayed due to the upgrades. My wife ordered an X in March. Neither of us have our vehicles yet. They ship on quarters, we understand that, however; Over the last ~10 years we have bought new cars from Holden, Audi...
