    No supercharge in bitter cold

    Driving an electric vehicle (EV) is not the same as driving a traditional gasoline-powered car. It's important for EV owners to be aware of the unique considerations that come with driving an EV, such as pre-heating the battery before charging in cold temperatures. This can help prevent issues...

    Model S is insanely safe.

    https://ca.yahoo.com/news/doctor-accused-intentionally-driving-tesla-145231167.html So despite the horrible nature of a person trying to kill his family. I think the reason they survived, was due to the model S safety features and frunk as a giant crumple zone.

    Range concerns on 2017 200D I bought a week ago

    You charged to 51% and then drove 119 miles. I am surprised you made it home. When you drain so low your initial start up charging will be slow. You should not drive to such a low state of charge. 1% wow! I think once you get used to the idea that you need a faster charger at home and...

    Is there any advantage of leaving the X plugged in even when charge is completed?

    The 12 volt battery won't discharge as often when you keep the charger plugged into the car. The result is your 12 volt battery will last longer. When connected things run off the charger.

    Adding second charger

    I think the new generation of Tesla wall charges can be placed in series on the same line. I am not sure if they regulate output between themselves.

    So this just happened!

    I am driving southbound on Spadina in Toronto with my son, and a Starbucks Umbrella/Parasol blew off its’ stand and hit my passenger side doors and my passenger side mirror. There is damage to the passenger side door. Any Body Shop recommendations?

    Tire mistake at Service Center

    Just need to update this thread. I was just informed my Model X originally came with summer tires. So it makes sense that the service centre would have swapped out my used original tires for the same type. This came as a surprise since I was very sure I was told the car had all seasons on...

    Tire mistake at Service Center

    Firstly let me start by saying I love Tesla service and they are always great and professional. This is what happened to me on March 20. I had an appointment at the service center for a seasonal tire change from winter back to my original all season tires. Two of the original all seasons...

    Supercharger - Montreal, QC - Cote Vertu Blvd.

    Yup I do. There is more room on the unused second level that can allow for more solar than some sites already have. Put in a Power Pack and you should be able to add power when HQ can't support usage.

    Supercharger - Montreal, QC - Cote Vertu Blvd.

    If it's a power issue they should just put solar on top of the parking area.

    Model X Winter Experience

    I don't like the Pirelli winter tire from Tesla in the snow. I find the Model X on Ice can slide it appears to me to be due to the momentum of the car. It's quite heavy and slips sometimes with decelerating turns. Otherwise, I find it great.

    I expected my Model X and Tesla service to fail me.

    That's terrible.

    Bleach on UW seats?

    Lousy Range Cold Weather

    I have never heard of an electric vehicle having decreased range in cold weather. Actually my experience has been the exact opposite. I have found cold weather driving substantially Increases range. Sometimes the increase is as much as 250%! Maybe you should bring your vehicle to the...

    Yes, Tesla just installed my winter tires. I will call them. Thanks

    Passenger side noise at 155 mph

    Raising the volume to eleven seems to help a little! But I think it just covers up the problem, like a band aid.

    Passenger side noise at 155 mph

    Sunshades can solve almost any problem. Then again, driving 155 mph is sort of like running away from those same problems. Feeling very philosophical all of a sudden.

    I heard of Homer’s patented “speed holes” but speed tape sounds very interesting.

    Passenger side noise at 155 mph

    There seems to be a loud scream coming from the passenger side when accelerating abruptly or driving approximately 155 mph. Has anyone figured out how to shut them up? Other that that the drive is exceptionally quiet.

    Tesla RV

    Tesla is an interesting company, very forward thinking. Having read all the thoughtful replies to this thread, it occurs to me that the Tesla mission is to advance the electrification of transport. This lends itself to greater willingness to partner with specialty niche carmakers such as RV...

    Upgrading the Battery, will it finally become an option?

    I am aware that certain batteries can be software unlocked for greater range. My battery is a 90 kWh so that does not apply to me. Assuming new battery production from the gigafactory continues to ramp up, I am hopeful current owners will be able to upgrade their batteries. I have an...

    Tesla RV

    Wishful Thinking Part Deux

    I have Autopilot one. With only one front facing camera and the Mobileye system. I know it would be too expensive to put all the new side cameras in my original (less than a year old) AP1 Model X. If possible, I still would want to update the current AP1. I wish Tesla would offer to switch...

    Wishful thinking from a Model X owner

    I feel I should clarify. I am wishfully thinking it would be great to reward people who believed in, and purchased a Tesla before the Model 3 came along. People who purchased a Model S or X were an important reason for the Model 3 became a reality. By allowing free supercharging on a second...
