I drove BMW 5 series cars for nearly 40 years, and own a a 2011 M3 garage queen now. IMO, NOTHING can compare to my Model S. Renders “supercars” obsolete.
What a very levelheaded review. As a Tesla owner I can subscribe to both the positives and negatives. Love that you emphasised the safety aspects and charging infrastructure. My Model 3 Performance only needed one set of wiper blades in 4 years and several liters wiper fluid.
I love my model s performance dual motor ludicrous 2019 Ravin, its the best car I bought in my life. I often camp / sleep in it & consumes only circa 5% of battery per night @ 22 c. A.C settings
By a wide margin this new Model S is the best car available today at that price. To get better you need a 296 gtb from Ferrari or a Porsche GT3. But I am a car performance junkie. 😅🎉
@Cttechexpress 0-60 is not the only measure of a car, and do you race with other cars in a straight line on public roads with speed limits? Who is going to go superfast every time from one stop light to another with the back full of groceries or toddlers in child-seat, and speed limits everywhere? Driving dynamics, ride and handling, the feel and precision of the steering wheel, nimbleness in corners, NVH control (noise and vibration levels), interior and exterior quality are all pieces that make up a good car.
@harmony3138 the Model S Plaid did the Nurburgring faster than a C8 Corvette, so there's no lack of driving dynamics. The ride quality and comfort are also excellent... meanwhile the technology in a Tesla makes the Porsche look like a smartphone competing with a flip phone. How's the Porsche app? Can the Porsche pull itself out of the garage? Drive itself to your destination? Not to mention how much smaller the Porsch is, in all dimensions in order to achieve those sporty driving dynamics you're never going to use on a public roadway, while still getting 30% less range and slower acceleration.
Unfortunately they only sell in low numbers even in left-hand drive form, the separate dash, steering linkage and everything else required to make a right-hand drive version that will probably sell in the hundreds in the UK just isn't worth the cost.
20 seconds in to this video the review loses all credibility. Stated “almost supercar like acceleration.” Almost? It does 1.99 sec 0-60! How many supercars to that or less? So it’s not almost it’s beyond supercar acceleration.
The script is a bit odd. Wheels come standard 19” on both regular and Plaid. Ventilated seats are standard as well, not mentioned. As Tesla Vision is the new thing; no parking sensors, only cameras on the car. Regarding the lights, also already known at the time of filming, matrix headlights are equipped and have by now and then aswell, been updated to feature adaptive headlights. I could go on. I greatly appreciate the in depth of footage, as barely anyone seems to have reviewed the new S and X in depth. Just some of the facts are not correct. One more thing regarding the value; why would it drop if they bring out a right hand drive version? You can export it to anywhere in the world..
Tesla only seem to do revised versions of all their cars.So buyers of their latest cars need to play spot the difference. Cost cutting again by Tesla rather than invent all new designs? Why buy new when you can save thousands buying a 2nd hand version that looks very similar?
Odd review. Makes no mention of the ceramic brake option even though he talks about Nurburgring records and 200 mph top speed which is also incorrect. I hit 203 mph gps verified.
8:40 News Flash to all you reviewers who foolishly think we want “feel“ or” feedback” in our steering and suspensions: WE DON’T!!!!! WE NEVER DID!!! WE NEVER WILL!!!!!!!!!!!
so it's not in production, a quick google search or youtube search and it will magically appear. and out perform the model S from $69k to 250K USD in every ASPECT! i'll give you software on everything except driving performance
@@nibotkram7743 If true, that one car produced dragged the Model S up and down the Drag strip, up and down the Range test and up and down the Autobahn Country Club course.. But I will give you Telsa can play apple car play better and you can sleep at the wheel.

We all do. So unpractical to drive with less than 700 hp really. I love my new 2024 Model S. I wouldn’t have anything else as a daily driver. Not a Bentley Speed, not an M5 and not an RS6 or AMG, they remind me of propeller planes vs the Model S turbine engines. I would however have a Ferrari 296 gtb and a GT3 RS for the weekend and the track. These are the best 3 cars driving today in my view.
Yup, superfast they are, and most electric cars are, but who is going to go superfast every time from one stop light to another with the back full of groceries or toddlers in child-seat, and speed limits everywhere.
Way too slow the Mustang unfortunately Who cares if people like propeller planes if they get instantly passed by this fighter jet. 😂 i want speed and control. This Tesla is the king of the road. But you must drive it to understand. I would have said the same as i loved my LS7 v8 engine in my zo6 corvette ,,,, until i made the mistake to try this Model S Plaid fighter jet and had to buy one.

Model S Plaid is the best and very practice slick cool looking car for many years !!:)
Really enjoyed the review. As a Model S Plaid owner I agreed with most of it. It's a perfect daily driver IMO.
Great to hear your feedback
What a very levelheaded review.
As a Tesla owner I can subscribe to both the positives and negatives.
Love that you emphasised the safety aspects and charging infrastructure.
My Model 3 Performance only needed one set of wiper blades in 4 years and several liters wiper fluid.
Appreciate that
I couldn't live with a left hand drive in the UK even if it was brilliant sadly
For the price, nothing better. Love it. 🤗
Most detailed YT reviews ❤
Thank you
Very professional and detailed!
Thank you
The most meticulous in depth ever review of any car ever ever... probably.
Wow. Thank you.
Yes - there - saved you an hour
AMAZING! Thank you and your team for taking the time and effort for this review.
Glad you enjoyed it!
In the first minute, almost a supercar? My P100 D 0 to 60 is as fast as a Formula One car.
And it’s seven years old.
What do you mean almost?
I love my model s performance dual motor ludicrous 2019 Ravin, its the best car I bought in my life. I often camp / sleep in it & consumes only circa 5% of battery per night @ 22 c. A.C settings
Nice detailed review! Thanks
Thanks for watching!

Compared to a Porsche or Ferrari, Tesla is like something made by Fisher-Price :)
@@harmony3138 unless you're actually racing them in a straight line, then the Tesla will win handily. Haven't seen any Fisher Price products do that.

O, I see...a Tesla cultist...
Only a Tesla cultist will diss cars like Porsche or Ferrari 😆
Very detailed review as always. I'm surprised there's no longer a right-hand drive version of the new Model S.

They "refreshed" in 2021, there are many differences and improvements despite similar exterior styling.
I only like the long range not the plaids

If you're going to speed do it in an EV!
Lucid Motors doesn't exist, in your world? Lucid Air or soon to arrive Lucid Gravity!
Not in the UK

7.3 sec 0-60 time in chill? This guy is a knucklehead.
This guy is so very negative in his reviews.

Who needs more than 250 hp on the public roads.
I do

Don't mess around get a Mustang GT. A vehicle with soul.

@@Jackolivierbobut way more exciting and cooler
Mustang GT is much slower than a Model S.
@@icy1007and also less expensive
@@fortnitehub5232 You can spec a Mustang GT to be around the same price.
