@@atreidesN Yeah, not fast. Try doing a 10h road trip in a Tesla.

Tyler from the LTT team passed away before this video was uploaded. In a video from 3 years ago about what it is like to work for Linus he jokingly said Linus as a leader should ride a horse.
Ever thought about from where the battery comes, from where the electricity comes and that E Cars burn often and they have to be put for around 10 days in a pool of water so they dont burn again. I believe more in hydrogen fueled cars. hydrogen can even be produced in windturbines.
@@dreiback182 but hydrogen cars have a severely worse carbon footprint than electric cars (because the process of turning water into ions for the motor takes a hell of a lot of energy in factories)
@@weegle. Tell me where when hydrogen can be produced in windturbines. Also there is water coming out of the exhaust and its better for other people. The people who mine the lithium. Also when a electric car burns down it has a much bigger impact.
@@dreiback182 Again, it's the process of turning water into ions for the cars in factories, just because it spits water doesn't mean anything, read this: youmatter.world/en/hydrogen-electric-cars-sustainability-28156/
Max of 72, Lowest you can "set it" and lowest it will stay active is totally different as well. It will stay active at a full stop and monitor in front of it as the traffic starts to move. As he said its a little buggy at the super low speeds from a dead stop. But for example if its a traffic jam it seems much smoother while vehicles are just coasting or slowing/speeding up as openings or traffic speed shifts.
Lol, quite the opposite just happened. They just updated the UI and made it easier to manually adjust wiper speed. Seems like a coincidence 🤔 otherwise that would be a pretty unreal turnaround time.
@@ConorPorter I thought it was well thought out and pretty neutral. What he mentioned with that court case wasn't quite right though (unless there's another case I'm not aware of) as the court found the driver to be at fault for not knowing how to safely handle their vehicle. The driver should have used the stalk button temporarily and pulled over or used the voice controls (which I presume Linus wasn't aware of). That being said all of his criticisms were still valid (they really should have a physical switch for the wipers and any other safety related features) and like him I like the good things Tesla is doing and hate the bad. If you disagree please feel free to explain how his review was poorly thought out because otherwise you just sound like a fanboy (again I love Tesla overall but they aren't perfect).
@@ConorPorter I like Tesla's, but this is a pretty well thought out and neutral reviews I have seen. He gives it massive credit, and also talks about the problems.
That reminds me. Tyler said that he wanted to see linus riding a horse on that one honest answers episode. I'd like to ask if tyler was able to see linus riding the horse. I know it isn't much to ask but it would make me feel a bit better.
She was a champ haha. Little behind the scenes tidbit, a helicopter landed about 100m away while we were filming and other than staring intently at it Paloma didn’t seem to care too much.
I've owned a model Y for almost a year now and this video is by far the most intelligent video covering the issues I've seen. Great job! Now I hope Tesla listens and starts treating its customers like people and not test dummies.
My uncle is really rich, he said 2 of his friends had to sell their teslas.. one because he was always getting intense headaches, and the other because he always felt sleepy when he drove it. He believes it has something to do with the battery and what not
I always love how transparent and unbiased you are when it comes to Tesla, yes they are great cars, but as you said, Teslas anti-consumer practices cannot be ignored and must be called out
The anti consumer practices are heavily offset by the fact that they dont run you through a regular dealership, I also think linus doesn't full understand what hes talking about when he mentioned these practices.
They're not that great cars, they're fast (as you can expect form a muscle car) but when it comes to car like qualities like, well, quality, ease and safety of use etc. they're very poor. They spent a lot of money on a big and expensive trivetrain, the rest is a one massive cost cutting.
Not selling parts and not letting you fix the car, closing the software, that is as anti anti-consumer as you can get with a car. If you can afford to discard a car every 2 years like a phone that's fine, but its a tad more than an iPhone.
@@madnut666 do you know how technical it is to work on a EV? Tesla only sells parts to and allows repairs from shops that have been trained to work on their cars, they do this because their cars will catch fire from botched repairs, its anti consumer for very few consumers who have the time and knowledge to even know how to work on a tesla. "Closing the software" are you talking about used models where the person didn't pay for the included premium software?
"I've always felt that a leader should ride a horse, and I've never seen him on horseback, so I guess if I were going to say one thing that Linus could do to improve himself as a leader in my eyes is I'd like to see him on a horse more.

@@fluffyjello I dunno about being way better.. Especially in its current limited format of only specials. But it's still just as good.. Not the opening theme though
A great honest review. I never thought I'd also be watching Linus for car buying advice. This has honestly been the most useful Tesla review video I've seen so far. I really like how you broke down some of the practical stuff others overlooked when focusing on performance. Honestly the wind shield wiper thing alone is a deal breaker for me living in the rainy PNW. I was so close to buying one too. I think I'm going to wait and see how the new EVs from VW motors turn out.
so I didn't even know this was sponsored by the drone up till the end and I thought multiple times gosh those are some good shots. gotta hand it to them they know how to sell products!
Can we just take a moment to appreciate the horse ? I ain't the fastest, and it's only got 1 horsepower, but it comes with world's best autopilot technology
@@Tw1stTech A horsepower is more to do with the kinds of loads that you can put on a horse continuously. If you're a tractor manufacturer selling a tractor to a farmer who's only used horses and oxen, a value of "745.70 joules per second" isn't really going to be meaningful. However, saying "3 horsepower" as a way of saying "This can pull your plow as hard all day as 3 horses can" is a lot more clear.
@@banozzg A "horsepower" was measured on the most beat-up old wretched nag the inventor could find. It was done that way so he could say his steam engines pack more "horse powers".
I traded in my 6th Gen Camaro for this car. I do not regret it and have found the handling to be almost identical and love it. The service center here in Dallas made sure my car didn't suck on delivery.
Except it's NOT . Most of these youtubers come to the party late and DON'T understand why Tesla adopted this attitude towards Media . They have been focusing on tesla bad News for YEARS and driving the stick down . As an early investor , i totally understand why they decided not to talk to the press , because it started losing their investor money and for False info.as well. So Linux may want to do some HW before bashing with no legs. Bad take from him . Period
@@TheHeavenman88 the media? Bro, they don't sell parts for their cars to their actual customers. Something every car manufacturer has been doing for decades. Fuck the media, tesla is an asshole to its own customers.
Guys I understand both your arguments. I am a Tesla investor as well and love the innovation. I do also agree that some things don't work that well (yet?), Like the automatic wiper stuff, which they can update with software. Same goes for the routeplanner etc. I too think the build quality must be better, but scaling production 60% year over year is really hard as well. They are scaling up and improving all aspects and the further we go, the better they will be. But for now, the competition is not yet there and in my opinion, they are still leading the EV race. Cheers!
@@0QualityOverQuantity he is being honest finally and it’s amazing to see. Tesla has so much hype that it’s pathetic it’s literally worse then when iPhones were supposed to have every feature even tho they didn’t but it’s still an iPhone. It’s pissing me off that since they made sm money they changed from a real person to real person style and now it’s all oh sorry contact this department I hope tesla fails not for the future just they do everything so fucked up like announcing cars that’ll never even come out
@@0QualityOverQuantityid be like dodge announcing their making a 2000hp challenger that’s gonna be 1.5 seconds 0-60 and all this crazy shit then we never get it that’s literally what tesla stays doing
I think Tesla is the iphone of electric cars because people will never stop buying them. Other electric cars are the androids because they are overall better. Elon Musk will build millions of super chargers around the country, and that will get people to buy a tesla.
Very honest review. Greatly appreciate it. Would love to see a 1 year update now that FSD is more polished, better QC, and Tesla adding features/options that weren't available back in 2020.
OMG Linus is actually pretty good at horseback riding. That horse is also a true Angel. Didn’t walk off at all when Linus walked away without holding onto the reins.
Basically like "The car has some flaws, but is overall a pretty amazing product that makes you say wow.. but you know what else will make you say wow? The actions this relatively scummy company has taken at every turn, as they arrogantly ignore everything the consumers want, and the consequences of their actions"
I personally love Teslas but dislike some of their policies and actions. Their development team is very good at listening to customers but their production management isn’t. The company is a mixed bag of amazing to horrible, but the product is amazing.
I thought Elon was the good guy for as long as I know about him, but my expectations of the perfect entrepreneur are slowly starting to fall apart. Or more like shatter :(
@@fudgeyman99 I'm guessing that very much depends on how and where (and when) you found the information. I mean I thought pretty much the same thing when all I knew about him came from popular science magazines and random articles in the paper (like around 2005-2012/15?).
@@onedriftyboy that's like saying Edison was the good guy because history class hasn't covered him much. Musk is awesome at collecting venture Capital for his pet science projects, burning out the actual talent and throwing prototypes on the market (some of which could have been average quality with few weeks of improvement, not done in years). That leaves him impressive, not however necessarily favored.
@@thebrandonw2742 sounds like you havent either. What part of looking down to adjust simple things like the damn wipers, not distracting? Sure let me just look off the road when its storming hell and other drivers cant see.
@@ExySmexy I own one actually. And the wipers are automatic. They are always ‘on’ when it starts raining. You can also press on the end of the left stalk to make them do a single swipe, if they don’t detect for some reason. The only time I have to press the screen is when I want to disable the automatic or turn them off completely. They are automatic just like my BMW and my Mercedes lol. Linus just didn’t know how to use them, because he probably drove it for like 10 minutes, and didn’t know you can press the end of the left stalk. Or hold it, if you want to use the windshield wiper sprayer.
@@ExySmexy the only time it fails to realize it’s rain, is when it’s a fine mist because there’s not enough feedback on the windshield to trip the sensors. Same issue I’ve had on both my Mercedes and the BMW I traded in for Tesla. The automatic wipers are great, but they’re not perfect on all the cars that offer them.

I've had a Model 3 for just over 2 years. Love the car, but the issues I've had with it and the poor service have me on the brink of trading it in for something else. Always appreciate your honesty and transparency in your reviews.
Not gonna lie im slightly confused because of the title and then what you said in the video. Did you or did you not buy one ? Lol as an edit imagine people jumping on me because i asked for clarification in a review of a $40,000 car. And people have a go because they say im entitled? By asking questions... ABOUT A REVIEW.
Linus Tech Tips Ah ok thank you, part of me though that, but then thought it’s also stupid to just assume that conclusion. Thank you :) And Happy New Year of course!
@@LinusTechTips So...are you gonna buy a Tesla? I remember one of your earlier videos talking about why u didn't buy a Tesla, so are you gonna keep your Chevy?
Thank you for the honesty of the review. I owned a model X for two years and felt very mistreated by the company whenever i had a problem. The absence of service and respect finally pushed me to go back to traditional car makers.
They really need to focus on that. They claim they are... maybe the quality of service is regional. We've had an X for around two years as well. We've been pretty happy with the service... although the sales support when we were getting it was really horrendous at the time. Elon likes to brag about no marketing, claiming marketing is lying to customers... but then his company has all kinds of other issues that are arguably worse than that. It needs to improve. ... that said, we're not going back.
I have a Model 3 Performance and I love it. But dang this is an amazing review and highlights everything wrong with Tesla. I've thankfully not had as many issues, but so many other owners have. Electric cars are the future, I'm looking forward to the competition bringing out great electric cars.
@Nicolas sure, but we aren't there yet. And batteries have some advantages over hydrogen, specifically the hope of being much less dangerous over time, or in use with larger vehicles that will live in the city where the amount of hydrogen needed is too dangerous. You will still need batteries, why not get a head start when you are already having a, albeit marginally, positive impact. I say this as a guy who owns a Mustang and will own one more gas car before switching to electric in about a decade.
@@Bawrabawla Hydrogen fuel has been around since a few decades, it was used in the space shuttle to generate electricity and as far as i remember it i read article about them in production cars in the mid 2000. Hydrogen make more sense for truck with trailer and bus to get a longer range with fast fill up, but for city car battery seems to be a better choice with the regen. GA would be a good application to replace AVGAS that contain lead and with it's low weight compared to battery, train too but these can be wired and fast like the TGV in france. Currently the main downside with hydrogen is the efficiency from electrolyse(where electricity can come from coal or gas), by using methane not a good choice either... fuel cell are made from rare metal it,s pricey and there life is about 5-10 years depending of the usage, the convertion back to electricity is not that efficient so it's add up. In cold climate the water can freeze in the cell and make it inop... converting a gas engine into hydrogen are possible bolt modification need to be made and it might not create greenhouse gase like co, co2 but it create lot of nox so not good The best battery would be supercap but they dont have the the energy to last curently but they are good for regen then fill a battery or reuse right away. On the tesla subject, i dont like their attitude everything has to go though them, always connected and such, part are barely available( not tire and brake obviously). I own a magnum(daily) and a charger(roadtrip), I'm considering selling the magnum since i work closer from home and doing like 8km a day is not great on it and cause more trouble. 2nd hand electric are still pricey and make it hard to justify for that short trip, the choice is still limited... I would like a sedan or wagon, not an SUV. The bolt is not bad, wich to try it one day but it seems short...
I work for an automotive company and I can tell you for a fact that Electric vehicles are not the future, the majority of electric vehicles (probably Tesla exempt) aren't even built for a profit, they're built to offset the charges set by their local government for not bringing down their fleet CO2 down, but they don't include manufacturing CO2 numbers. There's a nice video online that explains how the complete total CO2 production of building and running an electric vehicle over a certain amount of time is much worse than an internal combustion engine.

Linus: Talks about how the screen in his car doesn't work right with his Spotify Me in my Dodge from the early 70's: I have an 8 Track player and a Conway Twitty 8 track.
Definitely got some top gear vibes from this one. Only issue is green screen Linus for most of the video. The audio is a bit off, slightly I'm in a small room when it's supposed to sound like I'm outside.
the thing with a subscription base is, it feels right and cheap for one thing you want to do. but once everything you do is subscribed, you will soon realize that u actually being robbed instead.
I shouldn't be charged to use a thing if i already paid for it while purchasing it. UNETHICAL. Plus, Like other tech giants who knows what data is being stored and sold.
My issue with subscription model is that if the hardware is paid for. It shouldn’t be limited by software for paid add on or subscription. Imagine if Intel charged us a subscription to overclock our hardware. Intel if you’re reading this, don’t get any idea.
Good review Linus!!! I’m glad you pointed out the not so great things. I agree that the wipers should be easy to turn on in the case of a sudden downpour. That has to be addressed quickly. Thanks and I’m looking forward to more car reviews.
Just to let you know, since this is an old video, most of what's mentioned has been fixed and changed, although the wipers are still controlled via the touch screen, though touch commands do a great job to make up for it.
The touch screen controlled wipers is indeed very distracting. If anything needs a physical control, it's that. The 'auto' wiper option just isn't good enough. EDIT: using voice commands is much less distracting! Great suggestion.
Holy shit its such a bad idea. Just finished 2 hour drive in snowy, foggy and dark weather and if I had had to switch wipers through a screen instead of constantly switching them without taking my eyes off the road i would have just not been able to stay on the road. Sad that Tesla went for the apple route.
Touchscreen anything that is freq used is a fucking bad ideea, my focus should be on the road not on the screen navigating to find the stupid climate controls. In this case, the wiper controls should be ilegal to be controlled via a screen it is just too important not to be easily accesible.
I've asked other Tesla channels to do critical videos and many won't. Instead they'll give you a top 10 minor things I kinda don't like but do like kinda videos.
the sheer honesty in this video is exactly the kind of input i wanted to hear when learning more about teslas everyone else just says electric car go brrrrr it cool im smooth brain instead of pointing out valid strengths and weaknesses like you did, youre a tech channel why are you so good at car reviews.
And if it’s products and culture. What i dislike most about Tesla is the *post purchase experience* (and I guess it’s 50% dude-bro wannabe ‘entrepreneur’ culture). Trying to get anything fixed under warranty is like trying to argue with your cat about why he should let you eat the can of fish. And yes, these cars have horrible quality. Whether it’s fit and finish issue, electrical issues or mechanical issues. Needing to fix your car 3 times a year and each time taking 2 month to do so (parts take forever to come in too) really kills the ownership experience and takes away everything that’s cool about. Nothing is cool if you can’t use it. The price of buying a Tesla tells me i should get at least BBA (Benz, BMW, Audi) level of post purchase consumer experience if not Porsche level (which btw, absolutely DESTORYS Tesla in real life ownership experience) But instead, i get an unorganized, shady, untrustworthy post purchase experience filled with constant doubt and worrying. Just can’t deal with the literal BS that comes with owning these cars anymore. I like Tesla’s, and cars in general. And I’m not in the party that hates on electric cars despite also loving engined cars. But man...the amount of time wasting stress associated with owning a Tesla in its current form just isn’t worth it anymore.
Totally agree, though in my opinion he focused a bit much on the negative and the negatives of Tesla rather than the car itself. He didn’t do that with Chevy in his volt video. Not saying it shouldn’t be mentioned it was not proportional to his final verdict of it being a decent/good car. Also didn’t mention much about supercharging. I am aware I am bias though so it could just be me.
@@Scott-fd7zi Exactly how I felt. This was more like ‘Tesla Review’ but the company makes a big portion of the experience the user is going to get with their products. But yeah, he focused on the negatives of the company way too much.
@@utubekullanicisi Same he was really trying to put a hurt/display every Tesla flaw, the outliers a company does not make... And he tried to paint Tesla as Apple, which is fair but hes not making videos on Apple and their labor practices and rioting workers, and neither does MKBHD
@@wombat7961 Heck Linus even reviewed the M1 Macbooks recently and he didn’t open his mouth about Apple’s stance against Right to Repair. He only said “oh yeah these parts are soldered to the motherboard you can’t upgrade them by yourself”, etc. Which isn’t necessarily the wrong approach, because the laptops he was comparing them to also had most of their components soldered to the motherboard.
Really love the Top Gear reference. "It's the fastest car in the world, because it's a rental." Always strange to see two pretty different worlds collide.
The audio sound you are complaining about is because a combustion engine rumbling car gives white-noise affect to drowned out the reverb affect of your voice that seems to bounce off everything with a very quiet car, and the white-noise also pacifies the motion sickness your wife may get due to the fact of swaying back and forth in it because that's all she can since because nothing else is making noise to keep her from only realizing of her swaying, like a distraction that keeps your mind off the obvious annoyance. Once again you keep producing the best videos and that's why I subscribe and always enjoy Linus.
As a Tesla owner, couldn't agree more. When looking into it, the alternatives were just not as good or ridiculously expensive. We thought a Tesla was too expensive until Jaguar, Audi and Porsche showed us their option lists. As for people calling us brand cultists, just remember that for most Tesla owners, it's probably their first Tesla.
So your telling me, as a kid, Linus did Tae Kwon Doe, horseback riding, and went to a magnet school, and grew up to be Linus Drop Tips. What a glow up lol

“Low enough to use in school zones”
*Shows autopilot speed at 72kmh*
That's cuz all of us Americans just assume that must be about 25mph.
The lowest it'll go is 18mph, I haven't tried it in kph but converting says around 29 kph
Max of 72, Lowest you can "set it" and lowest it will stay active is totally different as well. It will stay active at a full stop and monitor in front of it as the traffic starts to move. As he said its a little buggy at the super low speeds from a dead stop. But for example if its a traffic jam it seems much smoother while vehicles are just coasting or slowing/speeding up as openings or traffic speed shifts.
I’m not British so
Must be one of those school zones with a rare "fast children at play" sign

Wait until you see him drop a horse...
You got what you wanted. Probably the poorest least thoughtful review I've seen.
@@ConorPorter I thought it was well thought out and pretty neutral. What he mentioned with that court case wasn't quite right though (unless there's another case I'm not aware of) as the court found the driver to be at fault for not knowing how to safely handle their vehicle. The driver should have used the stalk button temporarily and pulled over or used the voice controls (which I presume Linus wasn't aware of). That being said all of his criticisms were still valid (they really should have a physical switch for the wipers and any other safety related features) and like him I like the good things Tesla is doing and hate the bad. If you disagree please feel free to explain how his review was poorly thought out because otherwise you just sound like a fanboy (again I love Tesla overall but they aren't perfect).
@@ConorPorter I like Tesla's, but this is a pretty well thought out and neutral reviews I have seen. He gives it massive credit, and also talks about the problems.

My uncle is really rich, he said 2 of his friends had to sell their teslas.. one because he was always getting intense headaches, and the other because he always felt sleepy when he drove it. He believes it has something to do with the battery and what not
I always love how transparent and unbiased you are when it comes to Tesla, yes they are great cars, but as you said, Teslas anti-consumer practices cannot be ignored and must be called out
The anti consumer practices are heavily offset by the fact that they dont run you through a regular dealership, I also think linus doesn't full understand what hes talking about when he mentioned these practices.
They're not that great cars, they're fast (as you can expect form a muscle car) but when it comes to car like qualities like, well, quality, ease and safety of use etc. they're very poor. They spent a lot of money on a big and expensive trivetrain, the rest is a one massive cost cutting.
Not selling parts and not letting you fix the car, closing the software, that is as anti anti-consumer as you can get with a car. If you can afford to discard a car every 2 years like a phone that's fine, but its a tad more than an iPhone.
@@sic22l then how do they have such a high customer satisfaction of their service and quality is shit? Maybe people dont think the car is shit.
@@madnut666 do you know how technical it is to work on a EV? Tesla only sells parts to and allows repairs from shops that have been trained to work on their cars, they do this because their cars will catch fire from botched repairs, its anti consumer for very few consumers who have the time and knowledge to even know how to work on
a tesla.
"Closing the software" are you talking about used models where the person didn't pay for the included premium software?
"I've always felt that a leader should ride a horse, and I've never seen him on horseback, so I guess if I were going to say one thing that Linus could do to improve himself as a leader in my eyes is I'd like to see him on a horse more. It would make me feel a lot more at ease."

@@banozzg True ;-) Research it. The name for the unit is pretty pointless and confusing
@@Tw1stTech A horsepower is more to do with the kinds of loads that you can put on a horse continuously. If you're a tractor manufacturer selling a tractor to a farmer who's only used horses and oxen, a value of "745.70 joules per second" isn't really going to be meaningful. However, saying "3 horsepower" as a way of saying "This can pull your plow as hard all day as 3 horses can" is a lot more clear.
@@banozzg A "horsepower" was measured on the most beat-up old wretched nag the inventor could find. It was done that way so he could say his steam engines pack more "horse powers".

Except it's NOT . Most of these youtubers come to the party late and DON'T understand why Tesla adopted this attitude towards Media . They have been focusing on tesla bad News for YEARS and driving the stick down .

Very
Guys I understand both your arguments. I am a Tesla investor as well and love the innovation.
I do also agree that some things don't work that well (yet?), Like the automatic wiper stuff, which they can update with software. Same goes for the routeplanner etc.
I too think the build quality must be better, but scaling production 60% year over year is really hard as well.
They are scaling up and improving all aspects and the further we go, the better they will be.
But for now, the competition is not yet there and in my opinion, they are still leading the EV race.

Didn't Tyler say at one point "A Leader should ride on a horse." Rest in peace buddy.
Ngl, I really like the fact that Linus spent a sizeable chunk talking about the impact of the company's actions, not just sticking to 'the car'
Basically like "The car has some flaws, but is overall a pretty amazing product that makes you say wow.. but you know what else will make you say wow? The actions this relatively scummy company has taken at every turn, as they arrogantly ignore everything the consumers want, and the consequences of their actions"
@@galacticboy2009
I don't get why you think that. They've implemented dozens of customer requested features on their cars.
I personally love Teslas but dislike some of their policies and actions. Their development team is very good at listening to customers but their production management isn’t. The company is a mixed bag of amazing to horrible, but the product is amazing.
I’m so glad you haven’t overlooked all the glaring issues even as a tech person and not a car person. Elon I hope you watch this.
That was a good review. He kinda murdered Tesla while giving credit where it was due.
I thought Elon was the good guy for as long as I know about him, but my expectations of the perfect entrepreneur are slowly starting to fall apart. Or more like shatter :(
@@onedriftyboy I'll be honest I don't really understand how anyone could ever see Elon as the good guy, nice normal people don't act like he does.
@@fudgeyman99 I'm guessing that very much depends on how and where (and when) you found the information. I mean I thought pretty much the same thing when all I knew about him came from popular science magazines and random articles in the paper (like around 2005-2012/15?).
@@onedriftyboy that's like saying Edison was the good guy because history class hasn't covered him much.
Musk is awesome at collecting venture Capital for his pet science projects, burning out the actual talent and throwing prototypes on the market (some of which could have been average quality with few weeks of improvement, not done in years).
That leaves him impressive, not however necessarily favored.
Finally someone said something about the screen being distractive..
Sounds like you’ve never driven one……
@@thebrandonw2742 sounds like you havent either. What part of looking down to adjust simple things like the damn wipers, not distracting? Sure let me just look off the road when its storming hell and other drivers cant see.
@@ExySmexy I own one actually. And the wipers are automatic. They are always ‘on’ when it starts raining. You can also press on the end of the left stalk to make them do a single swipe, if they don’t detect for some reason. The only time I have to press the screen is when I want to disable the automatic or turn them off completely. They are automatic just like my BMW and my Mercedes lol. Linus just didn’t know how to use them, because he probably drove it for like 10 minutes, and didn’t know you can press the end of the left stalk. Or hold it, if you want to use the windshield wiper sprayer.
@@thebrandonw2742 I assumed if there was an automatic it sucked big time if Linus had to talk about it. Good to know though!
@@ExySmexy the only time it fails to realize it’s rain, is when it’s a fine mist because there’s not enough feedback on the windshield to trip the sensors. Same issue I’ve had on both my Mercedes and the BMW I traded in for Tesla. The automatic wipers are great, but they’re not perfect on all the cars that offer them.

Thank you for the honesty of the review. I owned a model X for two years and felt very mistreated by the company whenever i had a problem. The absence of service and respect finally pushed me to go back to traditional car makers.
They really need to focus on that. They claim they are... maybe the quality of service is regional. We've had an X for around two years as well. We've been pretty happy with the service... although the sales support when we were getting it was really horrendous at the time. Elon likes to brag about no marketing, claiming marketing is lying to customers... but then his company has all kinds of other issues that are arguably worse than that. It needs to improve. ... that said, we're not going back.

I have a Model 3 Performance and I love it. But dang this is an amazing review and highlights everything wrong with Tesla. I've thankfully not had as many issues, but so many other owners have. Electric cars are the future, I'm looking forward to the competition bringing out great electric cars.
@Nicolas sure, but we aren't there yet. And batteries have some advantages over hydrogen, specifically the hope of being much less dangerous over time, or in use with larger vehicles that will live in the city where the amount of hydrogen needed is too dangerous. You will still need batteries, why not get a head start when you are already having a, albeit marginally, positive impact.
I say this as a guy who owns a Mustang and will own one more gas car before switching to electric in about a decade.
@@Bawrabawla Yeaj but Hydrogen cars have a lower carbon footprint from their beginning
@Nicolas It depends, others source of energy can be use like hydroelectricity with a very low impact on envrionment in its lifecycle...
@@Bawrabawla Hydrogen fuel has been around since a few decades, it was used in the space shuttle to generate electricity and as far as i remember it i read article about them in production cars in the mid 2000. Hydrogen make more sense for truck with trailer and bus to get a longer range with fast fill up, but for city car battery seems to be a better choice with the regen. GA would be a good application to replace AVGAS that contain lead and with it's low weight compared to battery, train too but these can be wired and fast like the TGV in france. Currently the main downside with hydrogen is the efficiency from electrolyse(where electricity can come from coal or gas), by using methane not a good choice either... fuel cell are made from rare metal it,s pricey and there life is about 5-10 years depending of the usage, the convertion back to electricity is not that efficient so it's add up. In cold climate the water can freeze in the cell and make it inop... converting a gas engine into hydrogen are possible bolt modification need to be made and it might not create greenhouse gase like co, co2 but it create lot of nox so not good
The best battery would be supercap but they dont have the the energy to last curently but they are good for regen then fill a battery or reuse right away.
On the tesla subject, i dont like their attitude everything has to go though them, always connected and such, part are barely available( not tire and brake obviously). I own a magnum(daily) and a charger(roadtrip), I'm considering selling the magnum since i work closer from home and doing like 8km a day is not great on it and cause more trouble. 2nd hand electric are still pricey and make it hard to justify for that short trip, the choice is still limited... I would like a sedan or wagon, not an SUV. The bolt is not bad, wich to try it one day but it seems short...
@@kiyoshim9593 Don't forget that Hydrogen cars actually produce cleaner air as they drive along aswell. Battery cars don't do that at all.
Actually a really brilliant review. I am a car nerd and I really enjoyed this. Thanks from Australia.
I work for an automotive company and I can tell you for a fact that Electric vehicles are not the future, the majority of electric vehicles (probably Tesla exempt) aren't even built for a profit, they're built to offset the charges set by their local government for not bringing down their fleet CO2 down, but they don't include manufacturing CO2 numbers. There's a nice video online that explains how the complete total CO2 production of building and running an electric vehicle over a certain amount of time is much worse than an internal combustion engine.

Good review Linus!!! I’m glad you pointed out the not so great things. I agree that the wipers should be easy to turn on in the case of a sudden downpour. That has to be addressed quickly. Thanks and I’m looking forward to more car reviews.
Just to let you know, since this is an old video, most of what's mentioned has been fixed and changed, although the wipers are still controlled via the touch screen, though touch commands do a great job to make up for it.
The touch screen controlled wipers is indeed very distracting. If anything needs a physical control, it's that. The 'auto' wiper option just isn't good enough.
EDIT: using voice commands is much less distracting! Great suggestion.
I’ve been using the voice commands to control the wipers which works fine, but I agree. A simple rotatable lever would do the trick

Holy shit its such a bad idea. Just finished 2 hour drive in snowy, foggy and dark weather and if I had had to switch wipers through a screen instead of constantly switching them without taking my eyes off the road i would have just not been able to stay on the road. Sad that Tesla went for the apple route.
What state are you in? The automatic wipers is something I love on mine, but I live in a desert where it doesn't rain as much and there's no snow.
Touchscreen anything that is freq used is a fucking bad ideea, my focus should be on the road not on the screen navigating to find the stupid climate controls. In this case, the wiper controls should be ilegal to be controlled via a screen it is just too important not to be easily accesible.
I'm very glad, that you doubled down on the "You must use the screen for everything" issue

What i dislike most about Tesla is the *post purchase experience* (and I guess it’s 50% dude-bro wannabe ‘entrepreneur’ culture).
Trying to get anything fixed under warranty is like trying to argue with your cat about why he should let you eat the can of fish. And yes, these cars have horrible quality. Whether it’s fit and finish issue, electrical issues or mechanical issues. Needing to fix your car 3 times a year and each time taking 2 month to do so (parts take forever to come in too) really kills the ownership experience and takes away everything that’s cool about. Nothing is cool if you can’t use it.
The price of buying a Tesla tells me i should get at least BBA (Benz, BMW, Audi) level of post purchase consumer experience if not Porsche level (which btw, absolutely DESTORYS Tesla in real life ownership experience)
But instead, i get an unorganized, shady, untrustworthy post purchase experience filled with constant doubt and worrying.
Just can’t deal with the literal BS that comes with owning these cars anymore. I like Tesla’s, and cars in general. And I’m not in the party that hates on electric cars despite also loving engined cars. But man...the amount of time wasting stress associated with owning a Tesla in its current form just isn’t worth it anymore.
Totally agree, though in my opinion he focused a bit much on the negative and the negatives of Tesla rather than the car itself. He didn’t do that with Chevy in his volt video. Not saying it shouldn’t be mentioned it was not proportional to his final verdict of it being a decent/good car. Also didn’t mention much about supercharging.
I am aware I am bias though so it could just be me.
@@Scott-fd7zi Exactly how I felt. This was more like ‘Tesla Review’ but the company makes a big portion of the experience the user is going to get with their products. But yeah, he focused on the negatives of the company way too much.
@@utubekullanicisi Same he was really trying to put a hurt/display every Tesla flaw, the outliers a company does not make...
And he tried to paint Tesla as Apple, which is fair but hes not making videos on Apple and their labor practices and rioting workers, and neither does MKBHD
@@wombat7961 Heck Linus even reviewed the M1 Macbooks recently and he didn’t open his mouth about Apple’s stance against Right to Repair. He only said “oh yeah these parts are soldered to the motherboard you can’t upgrade them by yourself”, etc. Which isn’t necessarily the wrong approach, because the laptops he was comparing them to also had most of their components soldered to the motherboard.
Really love the Top Gear reference. "It's the fastest car in the world, because it's a rental." Always strange to see two pretty different worlds collide.
That was the quickest Corolla I've ever seen
Remember when Alex was kinda awkward on camera? Boy oh boy, his performance on this video is TOP NOTCH -amazing growth!
Keep your crushes to yourself, weirdo
The audio sound you are complaining about is because a combustion engine rumbling car gives white-noise affect to drowned out the reverb affect of your voice that seems to bounce off everything with a very quiet car, and the white-noise also pacifies the motion sickness your wife may get due to the fact of swaying back and forth in it because that's all she can since because nothing else is making noise to keep her from only realizing of her swaying, like a distraction that keeps your mind off the obvious annoyance. Once again you keep producing the best videos and that's why I subscribe and always enjoy Linus.
I'm waiting for tesla to implement loot boxes were you can win a year of the autopilot or a new background for your car ui

Season pass for the brakes would be amazing.
True

As a Tesla owner, couldn't agree more. When looking into it, the alternatives were just not as good or ridiculously expensive. We thought a Tesla was too expensive until Jaguar, Audi and Porsche showed us their option lists.
As for people calling us brand cultists, just remember that for most Tesla owners, it's probably their first Tesla.
So your telling me, as a kid, Linus did Tae Kwon Doe, horseback riding, and went to a magnet school, and grew up to be Linus Drop Tips. What a glow up lol
By the way this isn’t a hate comment I really like his channel, I just thought this was funny.
He didn't finish his Uni and that is public known fact but at this moment he employs several people and provide his family pretty good. What have you done in your life so far?
@@tangocash342 You wanna settle down and read the comment above yours?
@@tangocash342 Why are you mad at him?
@@gonzo710 his first comment was completely unnecessary. Second one is not important. At least not for me. It could be a cultural think to drop in my neck of the woods is insulting. At the end I just asked a question, didn't I?
The best part about reviewing a Tesla is that this is nowhere near the most expensive item they've reviewed 😂
to my knowledge it was them unboxing the RED cameras right? they bought like two of those and I remember it being like $144k or something they said
@@zanny6414 I think you're right. I can't remember anything more expensive
Ltt needs to do more car reviews. The whole linus/Alex host swap screams everyday driver but from a more technical standpoint.
It's the techie Top Gear.
@@bloodrush545 Tech Gear?
"My Dad is ill"
"And I have not job and money",
"UA-cam not giving me views" ,
"I want to handle my family",
"Ya I m wrose than others"😥😢😥😥😥😥..
Tonight on Tech Gear
Linus rides a horse
Anthony says nerdy shit
And Luke leaves the company
Thats what Savagegeese is for; car reviews from a technical standpoint which probably goes too far for the average car buyer
I never thought a video on Tesla would mirror my thoughts on Tesla so well. In particular, I appreciate the notes on Tesla's behavior as a whole.
The behaviour thing is literally what every other car company does
@@Am_Yeff I'll get to this later. You're wrong, but I don't have time to gather the evidence right now.
