2022 Tesla Model X Plaid Review // Six Seat Supercar
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 січ 2022
- The 2022 Tesla Model X Plaid ($177,690 CAD as specced, $133,490 USD) is quickest SUV on the market and has the lowest drag coefficient in its class. On paper, it is nothing short of remarkable. 1020 horsepower. A claimed 0-60 time of just 2.5 seconds. 6 person seating. Over 300 miles of range. But just how does the Model X Plaid hold up in the real world as a dailyable EV with immense power? And how does it handle some spirited driving on back canyon roads? Thomas and James aim to find out! SUBSCRIBE!
Huge thanks to @joeyrogoff for making his Model X Plaid available to us

I love how you have elements that tie in with previous episodes. It makes it very rewarding for those who watch every episode.
What do you mean by that i watch every video but I not really sure by what you mean
@@thomasroussel2739 when they talk about the drag coefficient. There's three videos that tie in with that joke. The Mercedes eqs and the lucid air.
Absolutely! It was cool they brought that back

I wholeheartedly appreciate the intro after the skit. The music, editing etc. Top tier!
Oh and great review too.
I always skip through the skits to be honest
Yeah the quality of this show is pretty good 👍
Rewatching the intro at 0:28 gives me chills. Absolute masterclass in pairing visuals with the music, it paints the Model X in such a cool way. Phenomenal work as always.
Very Top-Gear-Grand Tour-esque
“The lowest drag coefficient ever” is the best TH skit ever. 3 episodes running & still hilarious every time! Keep connecting scenes in different videos, I love it!
Drag queen indeed
the amount of effort you guys go through to maintain such high production quality is so apparent. great work as always guys
holy smokes guys. I remember watching my first episode of TH years ago, and seeing what you’ve evolved to now makes me sooooo happy. the production, the jokes, the cars, all of it is so impressive. ultimately though, your show has stayed the same which I adore. thank you guys for the good times of past and future! really excited to see what lies ahead.
Thanks Mom...what's for dinner?

Never ever ever ever ever say Holy Smokes again.
@@shawnhorton2000 holy smokes did that upset you??
@@bilboswaggins5647 yes I am a Canadian and I any stand that hokey boomer saying It’s cringe.
“An orange with a brown spot” is probably the best description of a Tesla I’ve heard. It tastes soooo good it’s ok that it’s not perfect looking.
I remember the time (not so long ago) when we had to wait a week (or months for a new season) for a good quality Car Show on TV (Top Gear, etc). And now, so happy that times have changed for the better, as we have such high quality, A-Grade car shows / reviews...for free and on demand...multiple times a week.
This has got to be some of the best editing of any of y’all’s videos. I get lots of “Grand Tour” vibes and I love it.
Our man Karston crushed it once again.
Kiss ass owned.
Don't give the Grand Tours guys any more money, let's support this fresh view into the car world!
8:30
that door fitment 😶
I saw it right away and i wasn't even looking for imperfections...
Yep ..I wouldn't have accepted delivery.
No need to make a big deal out of it, it's fixed in 1 service appointment for free.
@@SwiftHDX uh yeah it is. It's expensive. No excuse for that build quality
@@SwiftHDX why do you Tesla fan boys accept this type of stuff 😀. I wouldn't be surprised if y'all accepted that the car came without batteries.
"I can kinda feel where the front tires are." What high praise!
Love how all the episodes are like one big story! So enjoyable and refreshing!
That rear hatch alignment at 8:31 is pure Tesla.
I noticed that too, never seen a new car with such poorly fitted panels
A new car of this price range to boot
That "luxury" Tesla touch.
The door handles at 8:05 too.
They could increase the quality by sending back cars like this and fixing them before delivery, but it would add $50k more to the sticker price of the cars because of the labor and time wasted fixing quality issues. Would you pay $50k to fix a panel gap?
The brakes on the models S and plaid were if I’m not mistaken the same brakes as on the 5th Gen camaro ss which aren’t even adequate for that car. After owning a 500 wheel camaro ss I can tell you that for sure those brakes aren’t adequate to the point where I upgraded to the Zl1 front brakes, bigger calipers and rotors. I can’t imagine a heavier faster car with those brakes.
I loved my brakes on the 6th gen, but 5th gen was trashhhhh for brakes. I also had the Mag ride, not sure if that helps with the heavy breaking. Sure felt better though.
You're not kidding. I drove a friend's 5th gen back when I had my built 2000 f body, and the (lack of) braking scared the crap out of me. Now add a couple thousand more pounds to that same Camaro, and you have a recipe for disaster.
That’s what you get with a car produced by a group of software engineers that focuses only on acceleration. Cornering is not in the consideration.
How do you get 500 wheels on a car?! Let alone a Camaro
@@adalbertolima3491 he means 500 horsepower at the wheels.
I've never been a massive fan of the way the Model X looks .. but since this refresh, its really starting to grow on me-and I LOVE the look of this one with the wrap 😍
I didn’t realize this one was wrapped until you said something then I noticed the matte finish a bit more long with the blue.., oh and James just said “wrapped”. Damn I thought this was a paint option :(
@@rkalla if only this was an optional paint option !! Be so cool to be able to order it like this.
Great review on TH as usual. In depth, casual, fun and professional content.
Cheers guys
You guys only get better and better! I seriously love this channel and you are absolutely my favorite car channel of all time! Keep up the FANTASTIC work!!!
By far the best intro. Poor James must be saved, quick, take him to th Canadian trucker rally.
the way they carried over the story from previous videos is just BRILLIANT!!
This is the coolest introduction you guys have ever had to date love you guys !! Sick seeing your channel grow so much!
8:26 That door alignment would bug the hell out of me.
happens in almost every other car Brand too its just we Look more to those things at Tesla
@@badema2638 cos it is expensive, it hardly seen on cars at that price range
I just commented that!!!
@@oghenekaro exactly
@@oghenekaro Oh trust me, I’ve seen it on a lot of cars in that price range.
The quality of these reviews is going up, fantastic work!
At this point, the quality of these videos, I would sit through a 2hr movie from throttle house.
Oh yes, as a father of four I was always after a 1020hp six seater with a steering "yoke" and no brakes!😂...and all for the low low price of $175,000 CAD🤣
The brakes are fine. Are you going to the track with your 2.5 ton suv? No you arent
@@Delitor Stopping power is always tied to the capabilities of the car, NOT the intended use case. If the justification of crappy brakes is "you shouldn't be on the track", then it's equally fair that a plaid trim with +1000hp shouldn't exist either.
@biblereader i have never in my whole life seen someone with for example go to the track with a dbx or a bentayga
@biblereader no? What are you talking about lol
Y’all are missing the point. It’s not about the track. (I know Thomas said you don’t want to track it) but it’s like the steering yoke. In a panic stop, will it?
I didn't even realize they made a Plaid X.
Same. Very poor marketing on this one I guess
It literally just came out and you're seeing the marketing on UA-cam
Total surprise to me too
@@weavingshroud tesla doesnt even have a pr department. they announced x plaid alongside model s. Youve been able to pre order a model x plaid for like maybe a year.
@@weavingshroud They don't spend any money on advertisement. If the product is good, it doesn't need any.
The suv with the lowest drag cd ever…
Love it!!
"Drag coefficient of drag"
@@joshuathomas512 😂
It’s not an SUV, it’s a people mover. Tesla have fooled everyone with their marketing speak.
@@neelparmar6690 mpv? Muh-puh-va.
I have a 2016 MX - and my kids are 7 and 5 - which means I has two full toddlers go through them - the white interior still looks brand new. You can mess anything up - but these hold up great if you take care of them. My model X plaid comes in April and has a white interior again.
Man, every review you guys do is awesome. Best cars reviewers out there. Keep it up!!
The intros are amazing as always!!!
A month or so back, someone commented on that when James introduces himself “and I’m James”, he cracks up every time because it’s like James’s tone and facial expressions make it look like James just realized his name was James for the first time 🤣. It’s so true and I laugh every time now too 🤣🤣🤣
I've seen that comment as well and I can't see it any other way. 😋
Hands down the best car review on UA-cam
One of the best points made, that yoke steering wheel would probably cause more problems if someone was trying to dodge an accident than not. I get it though that once the mind gets used to it that may lessen the chances. But still, it's just a design that I think goes too far. It's bad enough all buttons have been removed that a person has to depend on everything being on a screen.
Great introduction and production, your reviews are leagues above the majority. Still not sold on the yoke,the brakes or the quality control of Tesla but they are growing on me.
Tesla has never been something i have been interested in. The quality has only gotten worse and the design is awful and literally 10 years old, nothing new.
Those cost too much for how little you get.
For the same price, get a Mercedes EQS or the EQE
@@polardabear Or compare the Rivian R1T with Tesla X.. (i would choose a similar price Rivian R1T)..
@@poplaurentiu4148+ Rivian is on the same level as Lucid, in better words, trash.
I want a car made by people that know what a car is.
Those are just some Chinese people that just put plastic on a battery and sell it for tens of thousands.
And 300 miles of range on a off-roader?! Thats pathetic!
@@polardabear Quality has only gotten worse ?!?
You are criticizing a design because it is old ?! So a design became ugly just because it is starting to get old ?
"cost too much for how little you get" ?!
Just say you don't like Tesla because to each their owns. No need to do the bullshit talking.
Some we prefer the general performance of a model S Plaid instead of the I imagine the luxury confort and perfect fit and finish of an Eqs.
Plaid offers the best 1/4 time of production cars while costing 130 000$. And with few mods you can even have fun at track and destroy some supercars. And all that in a daily car that is confortable and that you can use for your vacation with your family.
For 130 000$ there is no other car that can offer that.
But of course if you don't care about doing the 1/4 mile faster than a Chiron, you don't really care about canyon driving, you don't like the look or the everything on screen or you don't care about supercharging network etc. Go for the Eqs.
@@polardabear you gotta remember when you buy a Tesla u also buy access to their supercharging infrastructure. Teslas not only can go farther than any other electric vehicle including the EQS but also have supercharging stations almost anywhere you go. Same can't be said with the EQS and you will be having a hard time with long trips. Further more the EQS is a slouch when it comes to acceleration and handling compared to almost any tesla.
The whole portion on the brakes really makes me appreciate the Taycan Turbo S with its massive Carbon-ceramic brakes
It makes you appreciate a car that was never mentioned once? They didn’t even test the brakes here lol, this review had nothing to do with the taycan and the two cars aren’t even in the same class
Pretty sad that porsche is a legendary company and thats its only advantage.

@8:08 that atrocious panel fitment like come on tesla $135,000 for poor quality control
3:54 - I was also waiting for that James 😂.
You will know if you watched the Mercedes-Benz EQS video.
Yup. 😂
James just apple-ing an avocado is an incredible image
The price difference between the Plaid and normal X is only $15K. This is because in order to configure a normal X like the Plaid, you need to add the $6,500 six seat option. That closes the price gap to $15K. Worth it my opinion.
Well, it's not like it makes sense for an SUV to cost 140-150k.
Jerry has 2 of the most hated loved cars a Jeep and Tesla. I’m waiting on the electric hellcat.
Dude gives 0 shit what other people think. I love it. I’ll never understand why so many people are so influenced by what others say. If you like the car, buy it. If you don’t, don’t buy it. So many people are so scared what others might think and make judgements about a car before ever once sitting in it or seeing it in person.
Everyone likes cars go straight fast
But perform poorly on tracks
Tesla is the worst EV manufacturer on the planet with Lucid.
And no, Dodge isn't making a crappy EV hellcat.
And they surely ain't naming it Hellcat because they would get hate lile Ford did naming their EV a damn mustang.
@@directlinkrexx4409 If it's not going to be used on the track, then a car's track capbilities are irrelevant. All that matters is it handles "good enough" on the road, where 99% of the time you can't safely or legally toss a car around like on a track. On the flipside, straight line performance _can_ be safely and practically used on the road to a much larger extent. That's why straight-line performance is popular, because the vast majority of people aren't buying a performance car with the intention of throwing it around the Nurburgring.
@@walkertheragdoll144 bro no one hatin on anyone whats yo problem 🤓
Every time the plaid is referenced and THAT scene from Spaceballs doesn't play at least once in the video feels like a missed opportunity.
It's also a reference to massive panels gaps and poor alignments.
Another great review. I really like how y’all cover the good and the not so good.
Best car review channel on all of UA-cam. Thank you for this.
I hated the yoke at first and even found a 3rd party replacement but now I love it. And the white seats are easy to clean.
The yoke doesn't feel that bad for normal driving.
"Remind ourselves what plaid means..." I'll never forget Space Balls thank you very much.
Happy to see this in the top 50 trending! Y’all deserve it! Keep it up!
It’s funny, here I’m thinking nobody is ever going to be like Top Gear, but you guys are definitely going to get there! Keep up the good work guys and gals!
James just biting into an Avacado like it's an apple
😄😄😄
Always a treat, regardless of what you’re reviewing 👍👍
the production quality is waaaaay better than it should be. Thats why i love this channel :D
Still think the PLAID could have come with a super custom, futuristic plaid patterned interior.
Holy shit.. Someone needs to make a plaid wrap for it. That would be stupidly amazing.
Its like a gaming laptop that gets thermal throttled and has to cool off after 5 minutes of gaming.
It's like s gaming laptop that WINS the game in that 5 minutes.
@@rogerstarkey5390 tou can buy the tesla or the laptop. Can’t buy skills.
Why can’t Tesla get quality control right?
Their customer base doesn't care, so they don't have to get it right
They already have outside of the US. Americans still get cars from the old Fremont factory, whereas the rest of the world mostly gets them from Shanghai.
Probably because they're a relatively new car company. The first Model S came out in 2012. Combine that with the fact that there's a lot of demand for their cars.
Tesla owners claim not to care, yet NA Hyundai Ponies and gen 1 Excels had better quality of assembly even with lesser grade materials. Subpar assembly is to Tesla what IROC is to Camaro.
Why can't beat Tesla on any other metric?
(The question that's rarely asked)
I love this review. The honesty is unreal.
You guys have such a great channel. It’s great watching two friends be so successful creating this channel together. Well done, keep it up 👍
I don’t know how you two don’t have your own TV show yet, you could be the Canadian/UK version of Top Gear. Always enjoy your content, thanks again for a great video
UA-cam has surpassed the TV audience, i’m sure their UA-cam revenue is larger than any TV show would bring in
@@LeJunny very true.
Damn that miss alignment at the rear doors and the fender 🙈 it’s crazy they still can’t make that right
I have never purchased anything to support a youtube channel I like. The other day I ordered a hoodie from you guys. That is the highest compliment I can give you from some random fan lol. Thank you for the great content!
Thank you Rajesh!
Greetings from Australia, and credit where credits due your nailing these videos, great natural pairing great production value you have to be the best out there on UA-cam atm.
Infact I find myself watching a lot of Canadian UA-camrs lately so maybe it's just a Canadian thing aye 🤔
Never thought I’d see them in my neck of the woods (Granada Hills), and the Full Malibu is just disturbingly accurate
I would have liked to hear comments about the ride, handling, noise and comfort, compared to the previous generation Model X. This one has a new suspension, supposedly better sound isolation, and so on (assuming those features are similar to the changes in the latest Model S vs. the previous version).
@momo same
We have a Model S and Model X Raven/Perf and now have Plaids also - working on selling the Ravens. Here's a quick take:
The new suspension is much tighter and sportier than before - more taut, but still comfortable.
The sound isolation is definitely improved - but not quite as big a leap as you might think. But the dual pane glass and a few other changes do make it more quiet.
The stereo - IMHO - is a BIG improvement. Gone are ANY loose parts that could rattle or distort the sound. Everything is beefed up to handle the full 1000 watt output.
The new materials are super nice- on the Plaid you'll find metal and Alcantara where you used to see plastic trim. The new carpet is deeper and more luxurious. Everything, every material is just a step better or nice, while still being familiar.
@@texastriguy Finally someone mentions the stereo. Thanks EF!
I own both a 2019 GLS and the new X (albeit long range, but except for the tri-motor drivetrain, it's identical). I can confidently say that it is a very comfortable car, and the ride is smooth. To be more specific, I think the two have very different types of comfort: the GLS is more of a couch; it has a plush ride that feels like pillows over bumps, which does mean, however, that there is a lot more lean, pitch, dive, and roll, making it less comfortable in that regard; in other words, the X deals with the bump in a more noticeable, yet much faster way. The seats are more conventional in the GLS and seemed almost too simple at first compared to an S class, but you never get fatigued. In the X, the seats are pretty much thin marshmallows if that makes sense; not too well bolstered, but you can sink into them when sitting properly. As for sound insulation, it is quieter in the X due to a lack of engine noise, and as for wind and tire noise, maybe maybe the GLS is quieter, but we are really splitting hairs here. Keep in mind I have the smallest available wheels on both cars: 19s on the GLS and 20s on the X. I noticed that the noise cancelling feature in the X isn't really noticeable until you listen to music: the 22 speaker sound system blows the GLS's Burmester out of the water with the right EQ calibration (which I found was by lowering everything to the minimum and heightening what you wanted to be more pronounced; that way the speakers aren't forcing certain noises out; they simply inhibit what you don't want to hear as much of); the sound system in the X is closer to a pair of open back headphones than it is of a stereo; you feel the sound of each instrument; no mushy middle sound, and a lot more bass available.
I can't speak about the sound insulation and the suspension compared to the old X since I've only test driven it once back in 2015, but I think comparing it to the best similarly priced 3-row luxury SUV is a good reference point.
Hope this helps.
Edit: after a 7-hour road trip in the X, my points still stay true, although I will accentuate that the suspension is more taught and large bumps are more pronounced than in the GLS. I tried to take notes on my lap with the computer on the seat next to me in both cars now that I have done a road trip in the X as well, and while I had no issues in the GLS when I did a road trip in that car, I did get some back fatigue in the X, and my writing was a little more sloppy.
I also want to point out that the suspension was in "low" during this road trip and I should have set it to high.
@momo You know Germany is a western country right?
Damn! The editing on the first min of this video was incredible impressive!! First 30 seconds in and I'm hooked!
Really was waiting to see what showed up after you mentioned drag coefficient. Great continuity!
Cool review guys, always apreciate your honest opinions about the cars, with flaws and everything. Keep it up.
My 2010 Prius (gen 2) had a cd of .25, which at the time was the second best I think. Made great strides since then.
Hardly a suv
@@YTU37 Similar silhouette as it turns out. Most coupe SUV are shaped like a Prius. lol
@@YTU37 That's the point, you see, my 2010 Prius Gen 2 "egg" was the 2nd best production CAR at .25, which this (bigger) SUV has equalled in 12 years time. Great strides indeed.
@@scottstewart5784 cd is dimensionless, which makes it a bit of a "gotya" measurement in the car world. The cd of the tesla and of the prius may be the same, and yet the drag of either one could be substantially more, as you've still got to multiply cd by total frontal area to know anything useful. Most likely the Tesla has a larger frontal area, but either way the point stands.
The shape of the Prius is probably still better than a model X , the X has a much bigger front , crag co numbers can be a little misleading
I'm a sucker for that teal in the grill and badges! The wrap looks fantastic too!
The editing is amazing man you guys have grown so much
Never thought I'd see the day, but Tesla is becoming the Corvette to the sports car world. Phenomenal performance for a bargain, but you have to look away from the build quality.
I'm glad you guys mentioned the driver's door being off, but I saw it immediately in the earlier panning shot. Door handles were off, c pillar was misaligned, non uniform stitching.
It’s like that for my 2018 X. So many panels are horribly aligned 😅 it’s quite bad. Those Falcon doors, lol what alignment? Tesla really doesn’t seem to know the meaning of the word. Passenger fender isn’t lined up too great either, and varying other issues all around the car. However, still a great car.
Explain how this is a bargain. Like aren't these things almost 6 figures to over 6 figures.
@@LOVE-VIBES-X-PROJECT-CARS Any other SUV you want to get that comes close in performance will either be significantly more expensive, or significantly slower in a straight line. EV SUVs that come close to this performance doesn't even exist at this point.
This is also true every single car that Tesla makes. No other EV in the respective class of the Model 3, Y, and S come close in performance, range, and charging infrastructure for the price. It's at a point where even comparable gasoline cars are often times more expensive.
But as the OP said, the trade off (for the customer) is the build quality is not great in comparison to its competitors, hence the comparison to the Corvette.
@@rousseau327 ...... First question is why would you be buying an SUV for performance.
Second question is if you're not looking for performance and you're looking for good build quality and a simple A to B suv what makes this a bargain to say for example a Toyota 4runner or Rav4
@@LOVE-VIBES-X-PROJECT-CARS Your first question is completely doesn't make sense, because people buy performance SUVs all the time from BMW, MB, Audi, Porsche, Lamborghini, etc. Why would you buy an SUV for performance? Because you have kids, you like the extra space, you like the extra ride height, or maybe you just like how an SUV looks, but you also like to go faster than anyone else with a normal SUV. The fact that Lamborghini made the Urus should tell you all you need to know about demand for performance in the SUV space. These buyers could have easily purchased a mid-tier X5 or GLE, but they went with M and AMG versions of it. Just because YOU don't care for performance in an SUV, doesn't mean other buyers don't.
The fact that you're even bringing the Rav4 and 4Runner into this conversation is completely idiotic. Those cars are also bargains. They even more of a bargain than the Tesla is, cause they're way cheaper, very capable, reliable, and have good build quality. That does not mean the Tesla Model X is not a good bargain as well compared to other performance SUVs you can buy.
Just because the 4Runner is a bargain relative to the Model X, doesn't mean the Model X isn't a bargain relative to a more expensive SUV, such as the Urus, or a Cayenne Turbo.
That tesla with that teal gives off Dave2D vibes
pretty sure this is my favorite yt channel out of everything. you guys are just so naturally funny
I literally crack up every time on the intro at them playing the air guitars! They look like such dorks :)
Te fact that you guys are able to beat Doug to the review has me impressed.

I owned model 3 performance and absolutely love the car . You guys did a great review on the plaid x 👍
Wasn’t the model 3 the one without a speed dial behind the steering wheel?
2021 TM3P I love and hate it, 😂
Great honest review. Can’t wait to get mine. 1 year and still waiting!
Wow,thank you guys for the good times of past and future! really excited to see what lies ahead.
As a track dog, I can't get over that steering wheel. Even when I'm driving relaxed (in my pickup!) my hands are always: shoulder width, shoulder height. No ifs, no ands, no buts. That thing would have me in fits in less than two seconds, I think.
The Yoke is absolutely ridiculous. You can retrofit a wheel from an older Model X, and add the stalks back, but it's a lot of work and money.
I agree. I just left a comment about that steering. Whoever designed it and whoever approved it are wrong for that. It's a serious safety issue. Sometimes I oversteer and almost lose my grip of the steering. That is why I never liked the flat bottom type steering wheels. Now this??? Makes no sense at all.
The Round v Yoke should be an option when you order your car. & Like you I'm a track rat & I haven't seen a Tesla yet I'd want to put on a track. The yoke & the brakes & its inability to handle the weight. That's the difference between Tesla & Porsche. Do 10 hot lap in a Tesla you'll have warning lights, alarms & probably limp home. The Porsche wouldn't care if you did 20.
@@mrtim5363 This. 👍
Agreed. I HATE that steering wheel. It is a deal breaker for me.
The door handles visibly out of alignment on a $130k car… lol
Its like seeing slightly crooked teeth on a smart, accomplished and beautiful lady - the teeth doesn't change the essence of the person. But yes, some people can only see the crooked teeth...
It's not just the door handles, it's the entire rear doors...if you check out the roof line, you can clearly see that the door is not aligned with the roof.
The intros never get old.

Great review, as always. The X has always been my favorite Tesla. Give me a normal steering wheel and I'd pony up for the Plaid.

Theres aftermarket wheels from t sportline that keep the stock wheel and complete it with an arc
You guys crack me up ! Well done as always , cheers 🥂
Lol loved the Easter egg for the other episodes.. lol would have loved to see Thomas standing in the empty spot with nothing to say. Great episode as always keep up the unique content.
petition to bring back 'this car vs the cheapest version of it we could find'
I cant help but feel like tesla should be offering carbon ceramic brakes as standard at this price point for these top trims lol
Especially when the dumbass who think they are expert racers drive them full throttle whilst the brakes are underachieving
And the fact than you're paying that price mostly for batteries and not luxury trim or features. The tech is updated on the fly, so the cost isn't really going there. As has been beaten to death, these are not luxury cars.
You could say the same about Porsche?
It’s about time we see this review. Thanks. I’m expecting delivery of mine soon.
You guys are the best in the business. Reviews, Production and all.
Argh the rear door misalignment drive me nuts... like the difference in alignment of the front vs. rear door handles at 8:05 and door vs. rear quarter window at 8:30
Agree but for some reason it seems like Tesla fanboys think crappy QA is part of Teslas charm.
It's crazy to see the progression in production quality of videos over the years
Can't say the same about Tesla...
@AP13P Their video quality seems fine to me.
California resident here, you totally nailed that intro 😂
Informative and entertaining as always.
im i the only one noticing none of the shut lines actually align?
Anyone noticing the usual sad spammers?
Good on you guys for calling out Tesla about the lack of brakes. Building a super car isn’t just about the acceleration or speed. You need a whole package.
Buy a Taycan.... "List" (🤭) then discover you need the ceramic brakes ($$$$$)
(There's a sanctioned upgrade for the Tesla now)
