I believe could already have the headlights set to ON, just not possible to have L shaped lights on as default

I would love to have the ability/feature to enable, under driver profile, to add Daytime Running lights, (L shaped ones on the Model S). Here in Australia it's quiet a safety feature on rural roads that you run lights as when you're overtaking slower Semi/trucks traffic, on the opposite side of...

It really isn't that big of a deal,. It's just a better way of distributing power. It can easily be stepped down if you want a fast way around it. 48v motors are common. It's just lining up your ducks at the production level and what level of slimline do you want to take it to vs costing

Time to give this thread a moment on the AED. (and yes, all speculation here) With the release of the Cybertruk, it's introduced Tesla's drive-by-wire system. The vehicle is already crash certified in Australia and other RHD countries, and with such a neat simplified package for the steering...

I voted for a RHD Model S, does that count?

Wow, thanks.

I've got an 2017 Model S and the Wagga supercharger isn't showing on the map. What am I missing? Do I require a different plug ?

/Rant got cut off Once again your bias overwrites any basis of genuine argument. Furthermore the lack of knowledge and history of any past infrastructure builds is comical. Just lookup the fiasco of the Sydney Opera House, they chased the architect out of the country, never to return

Right but your happy with roads, freeways bridges to be built, interfering with nature, so you can drive around freely but not the means of energy production to help you get around me efficiently. Sounds like solid position bro. And as for infrastructure builds, again only when it's something...

Yep, those dam (pardon the pun) lakes are just the worse for wildlife, forlna and fauna...... i constantly see The Greens constantly protesting lakes and demanding they be drained immediately. Genius stuff. Is there an ounce of critical thinking at any point in your rational or was this...

As for mileage, my BMW 320d '09 use to get 4.5l/100km on the highway, and at $2 a litre we're now at close to even money. Anyone owning an S/X it's now just as expensive as an ICE. Not a great selling point anymore and paraphrasing Elon, he wasn't meant to be using this a source of revenue...

no mention of another price hike on the Superchargers, now 70c /kW. Even with the most generous Wh/km this now more expensive than fuel. Just outrageous

I'm looking for a set of 21 inch wheels whether the original Grey Turbines or Twin Turbine Sonic Carbon wheels.

There's no emoji for crying into your beer....

The latest FSD version looks promising, video on link below. Recently took the MY for a test drive and still not sold, especially with the lack of dedicated driver display and the following video really nails home that feeling

Sure has and unfortunately I still have this remind on my desktop. I'd like to move on but the 3/Y just don't cut it and the other EVs just aren't 'there' yet.

This was always complete BS. Tesla proudly announces a manufacturing prowess over the competition at every level (innovation, vertical integration, cost), yet its not economical for RHD S/X. My ass. The body in white has done all the certification and roadworthiness approvals. Other...

And yet Tesla expects everyone to fit into a 3/Y.

I hope you're not in marketing, reduce your market by 20% then wonder why you have less demand.

I see Tesla now offering the Standard Range Model S/X with associated lower prices. Demand must be slowing again. Taking a break from banging my head against the wall, I hope they revisit our common cause in this thread and reverse the decision that gave me this massive hematoma

Same experts who decided that when a drunk driver kills four kids, all speed camera warning signs should be removed. Or the speed limiting of the Stuart Hwy in the NT and road toll increase despite years of data proving the previous 'unlimited' was safer. Or curfews for infectious diseases was...

Any yet many are killed in low powered vehicles......nothing like more red tape and more cash for the governing overlords

The rear brake lights and emblem strip is also notable change within the refresh too

It was the order for the Plaid Plus prior to launch and without the graphics being updated.

Here's another I dug up to keep the pain going, this was the car. I think this rates as an 11

and a offer another turn or two on the rack with this

because I like to torture myself and those around me

Todays puzzle, find a path to RHD heaven, please!

Is there any hope that the latest Drive-by-wire patent by Tesla an avenue to restoring RHD Models S/X in the near future? Or is it still not worth their while... https://www.techtimes.com/articles/292721/20230616/tesla-steer-wire-system-filed-latest-patent.htm

Glad we're all singing from the same hymn book ;) I made this meme about myself at the time and when I got to experience the car, now it's a salty memory and feelings that belong on an episode of the Jerry Springer show and a relationship that has gone South. Dam you Elon.....

Not sure if you've actually been in the refreshed Model S, the salt burns that much more, it really is an absolute breath of fresh air compared to the former model.

May as well paint all cars white and just hand out different tinted glasses to see the colour you're after, all in the name of cost savings. Six figure car manufacturer shopping at the 99 cent store for savings

One of the few markets getting the LHD in a RHD market (UK) have been treated to this little gem of Tesla 'thinking' and engineering with their recent deliveries

Regardless of the ongoing debate, I can't see how Tesla can turn up to the show with just two products in the RHD world. Is the $25k car the answer? Is the M3 the new MS. All I can see happening is Tesla being swamped without the variety that will soon be offered. This has to be reviewed at the...

"So your assumption that manufacturers are required to supply the automobile model you believe you require is not shared by Tesla management" And yet a promise from the CEO directly to early Model S owners, how are they not forgotten about in this country... Furthermore, if Tesla failed to...

Exactly. And this will inter lead to lower sales as people will look elsewhere. Hope it makes then realise their mistake.

All good, happy to called out or corrected. Elon broke my emotional attachment with the Model S (lost mine due the Covid fiasco) decision and I hope he doesn't move onto the Cyber. Disheartening to say the least. I've been banging the Tesla drum since 2011

Yep, that was me, self checking my info. If you go to the mobile site, it ain't there, so I'm at a loss......

Yet Australia put a limit on how many models on anyone brand could sell in this country so local manufacturing could compete. It was introduced in the 80s by the Hawke government and to my knowledge never been removed. Only remember this because a family member work for Ford for 30+years. And...

Well we got the wish, Model S and Model X removed from the Tesla Website, can't imagine the Cybertruk is far behind.

I'm still a little dirty about the whole thing guys. In fact I think they shouldn't be allowed to advertise models they're quite clearly not selling here. Models S, Model X, Roadster, CybertTruk, Solar Roof or Panels. 75% of their catalogue isn't even available for sale in this country ...

This was posted in 2017, before Model 3/Y and he'd also stated that the Model S had funded the production line. Feeling pretty much forgotten about alright, with a bad after taste.

Rapidly becoming a two car company......doesn't seem solid future plan, merely an accountants cost savings plan

And again seems like another cost cutting measure.... FFS

I think we're over thinking it, too much emotion involved. It's still an exceptional vehicle however it was the initial 'cash cow' for Elon to get the affordable car up and self sustaining. Now that time has past the pricing has to be brought inline otherwise it will be a dead duck. They managed...

I like your thinking. Further to this we've had sightings of both refreshed S&Xs testing in this country, yet no sightings in any other RHD destinations. (Happy to be corrected).

Seems very bizarre, I'm sure some reverse psychology going on. Nothing like raising prices yet offering 3-year unlimited supercharging.

"Despite a second set of price cuts for the Model S and X in early March, Tesla delivered just 10,695 of those vehicles in the quarter, the lowest since the third quarter of 2021" With current pricing (US) the MS is almost double the price of it's comparable M3. I really think there needs to be...

Price cut again on the 3 and Y, awaiting the news for the S/X to follow...

Unfortunately very few Model S's are selling, up over 90 now available on carsales, never been this high. This is because of the pricing structure between the 3/Y and the S/X and it's destroying the resale value
