    Tesla officially launches Charge On Solar

    It should work with any charger as the car regulate the rate of charging not the charger, once you have the right software in the car it should work/communicate with the powerwalls software, we will know soon.

    Tesla officially launches Charge On Solar

    They need to add a note: Note: 2012-2020 Model S and 2015-2020 Model X are not eligible for this license plate frame.

    Tesla officially launches Charge On Solar

    I have a feeling this is a way to drive people into new cars (no pun intended), Tesla is a business like any other.

    Incorrect Tesla sales strategy?

    They can't do this for free or everyone will ask them for a quote, this is not their business, and they don't have enough people to handle quotes (if it was free) they do trade-ins only if you buy a car. You can pay the 250$ and get a quote and if you don't like it submit a cancelation (explain...

    I had the same problem with my S, Tesla replaced it for free via their mobile service.

    3 Years of free Unlimited Supercharging

    The cost to charge a model X in California at high rates is around 45 cents for kWh which in a 2023 model X means 1$ for every 7.8 miles. So....are you planning to do 156K miles in 3 years? because 156K miles will cost you 20K$ in a 2023 model X

    Convince me to stay with a Model X

    I agree especially compared to my multi-red S plaid (in the second picture), this new ultra-red is much better.

    Convince me to stay with a Model X

    The car arrived just like Tesa said, i must say i have NEVER seen a build quality like this before. OH MY GOD this is not the Tesla I know. Everything is tightly fit, and drives so much better than my 2021 X ... so far I am very impressed.

    Tesla really needs to step up their SUV game (BMW iX impressions)

    Until you drive an EV, you don't necessarily appreciate the importance of ubiquitous, reliable, tightly integrated public fast charging to making it practical for road trips. Keep that In mind when you buy an EV that you will need to travel with and not solely for commuting.

    Convince me to stay with a Model X

    it is not comfortable to use for long distances, there is no way to hold it and relax in traffic, the sides are not round so your hand can't really hold it comfortably for me it only "works" in a straight line when you accelerate and need to grab it with both hands.

    Convince me to stay with a Model X

    You need to ask my wife that as she is a master on curb rashes, I assume in a week the new car will have curb rash on all 4 wheels, this is why she can't drive my cars ever.

    Convince me to stay with a Model X

    Weird, honestly your experience is horrible, I return my old leased X this morning and it was a great experience, 5 min and I was out, 1 hour later they removed the car from the app and send me a bill for 0$.... I was ready to pay for all the scratches on the car, curb rash on all 4 wheels...

    Convince me to stay with a Model X

    LOL, my original order was with the yoke (no other option at the time), I have it on my S Plaid and I hate it so I am happy they offer the X without it. They should charge extra for the regular steering wheel I would gladly pay for it.

    Cool, so i guess i should be ok without the free supercharging...

    Help me out here: Tesla told me I am not eligible for the free 3-year supercharging because they gave me the old pricing Here is my car order that is being delivered tomorrow, is that claim true?

    Convince me to stay with a Model X

    You lose 10% of the range with the 22" wheels, not worth it for me. The new X already has a lower range vs the older ones...

    Convince me to stay with a Model X

    My wife wants the Tesla, the reason she does not want the EQS is the charging network, we used to have an iPace and had to trade it in after 4 months due to not being able to charge it on the road. She still remembers how we were stuck all the time when taking it on a road trip even though it...

    I have a Model X lease coming to an end and I need to return it this week. I have a 2023 Model X Plaid on order but it will not be ready before I need to return my current Model X, Tesla lease center doesn't care. Long story short they are pissing me off, their lack of customer service is...

    Yes, i am sure, I just need to return the car to get out of the lease.

    advice on returning a lease and getting a new x

    Hi, My lease 2021 X is coming to an end in October, Tesla has now a feature in the app to assign an order to a lease and return a lease and get the new car on the same day. My question to you all is, Tesla told me I can return my lease today without any penalty and get into a new 2023 X lease...

    4-5% discharges a day?

    not really. Tesla gave me a service appointment which I had to reschedule, I will bring them the car next month. It looks like they know about this, and the car needs to go into a Tesla service for a fix.

    FSD price increase on Jan 17

    Nope, once it is really available (years from now) Tesla will not be the only company to offer it. Prices will go down and most likely it will be close to free as they will need data, lots of it, to keep it working. All of you who paid and keep paying, I thank you as you are the ones driving the...

    FSD price increase on Jan 17

    12,000$ to keep your foot hovering the brake pedal, waiting to see if the car will stop, engaging the brake yourself if it doesn't, sending your data to Tesla to train the algorithms, risking your life in the process. Others pay drivers to test their software. Tesla gets paid to allow drivers to...

    2022 (NF VINs) build quality discussion

    2022 Plaid, came in perfect. I was very impressed this time. Compared to my 2021 X which was with some issues.

    4-5% discharges a day?

    Correct
  33. Sonus

    4-5% discharges a day?

    It was not set to precondition the battery. I switched it to schedule charging , I will report back in 24h
  34. Sonus

    4-5% discharges a day?

    Scheduled Departure is set but the car is not plugged into the charger. i left it with 85% SOC 2 days ago and today the car is at 76%, not moving at all. no third-party apps.
  35. Sonus

    4-5% discharges a day?

    if I leave my new 2022 Plaid in the driveway for 2-3 days without driving it, my state of charge is slowly reducing each day by 4-5% I don't have sentry mode activated, what could be the issue? I also have a model X and it never loses charge on a daily basis.

    The Red Room (Superior Color ofc)

    True, I have the same Tesla representative every time I order a Tesla, he called me the same day I put in my order to check that everything is fine and 2 days later he called again saying there is the same car I ordered with 5 miles on it ready for delivery, the original person who ordered it...

    Major 2021 Model X refresh pending [Update: Unveiled January 27, 2021]

    Well, I ordered my X around the end of Oct got it days later. My neighbor saw the car and ordered his around mid Dec and got it 2 days later. Tesla is known for issues and poor customer service, I wouldn't read too much into your situation and assume your rep just messed up.

    Major 2021 Model X refresh pending [Update: Unveiled January 27, 2021]

    Here are some interesting numbers, for me it explains why they closed the S and X lines. They had enough of X and S to answer the demand so they closed those lines and shift priorities. If you look at the numbers they produced 16K cars in Q4 and delivered 19K. That means they had 3K manufactured...

    Major 2021 Model X refresh pending [Update: Unveiled January 27, 2021]

    To be honest, I don't know, Tesla has a lot of money now but I don't see them competing against Porshe, MB, etc.. in the luxury segment. The all-electric Cayenne is coming soon, it will definitely eat away X sells. The Taycan is already eating model S sells ( i know I am one of them) Audi, MB...

    Major 2021 Model X refresh pending [Update: Unveiled January 27, 2021]

    Sorry, I disagree, Porshe sold 60K cars in 2019, Telsa sold over 300K the same year. (The Taycan is now the most popular car Porsche makes! thank you, Tesla.) Porshe focuses on premium markets with amazing quality and performance, Tesla tries to create a new market for EV and quality is less of...

    Major 2021 Model X refresh pending [Update: Unveiled January 27, 2021]

    Yes, I agree. Tesla should focus on the Y and the 3 since the competitors are closing the gap. The MX can wait.
  43. Sonus

    Major 2021 Model X refresh pending [Update: Unveiled January 27, 2021]

    Mercedes EQC, Audi eTron, and Jaguar iPace are all competing against the Model Y, not the X. As of today, there is no EV that can compete against the X in terms of size. Jaguar is working on one but it will take time and because of that, there is no reason to refresh the X yet.

    FSD Subscription coming "early 2021"

    The monthly subscription should target leased vehicles. When you lease a car if you buy FSD for 10K upfront you only really pay ~6K for it since it is part of the lease deal. This means it will increase your lease payment by around 160$. So for it to make sense the monthly subscription price...

    Model S Performance

    Ok so i made my decision i am going to buy a new model s performance. The only question is with the new Plaid coming, isn't the Plaid version have to have a new redesign to fit the third motor and get the new battery pack, how likey the rest of the lineup will also benefit? I can wait a few...

    Value Added Taxes in Germany are currently down to 16%, as Covid incentive, until end of 2020. Then again up to 19% as before. That’s all there is to it... it is a shame they don’t do fact checks

    Rivian Vs Tesla

    Great deal or not, Electrify America network sucks. I owned an Ipace for 10 months, 50% of the time when I tried to DC charge it in the Electrify America network it didn't work. So how much money does it worth to you to go on a road trip and make sure you can charge your car when needed?

    2021 Q7 vs X ?

    I used to have a 2019 Q7 prestige, boring, slow, and feel fat and heavy. the X is the way to go. the Q7 is way better inside and quieter, so If you like the interior get the Q7 but it will get "old" over time and the ride is ...hmmm just like a big SUV with not enough power in my opinion. Take...
