The length of that charger cable was a joke. Is there a technical reason for its shortness? Is this a common issue with EVs that prevents you getting a public charge?
That was a short cable, however it does make sense as they are Tesla superchargers so the cars will fit exactly in the spaces. This is not the case with other EVs which can use the Tesla network however and that is why there are issues with those cars being parked potentially in strange positions that block access.
Yes there is a reason. These chargers push lots of juice and get hot. So they are water cooled. There is a cooling fluid flowing inside the cable. Hence, shorter the cable the better.
Don’t we all want 2020 prices in 2023? 😀 The price I quoted was the price Tesla gave me for this car; but I mentioned it twice and one was the starting price and one was the actual price. As for why I put 2023 that is because new cars in 2022 are 2023 model years but I agree it is confusing.
£6k+ for a piece of software is just totally unhinged, much like the valuation of Tesla stock. I love them in the same way I loved iphones when they came out (but jumped out of apple hell as soon as android came along), a technical marvel. I guess I'm waiting for 'Android' to come along for self driving s/w, even if I spent 12 hours a day driving I couldn't justify that sum, it just feels like I'm being shafted and I can't look past that.
Right now as it is there are many other car makers who have the same functionality, Kia, Genesis and Hyundai have Highway Drive Assist which can auto-change lanes to name one.

Curious to now how you're getting on with the white interior and wearing jeans (as lots of us do). Thanks for the review
No problem!

Lovely car I have test driven one not so struck on the suspension though. Anyway you stick to getting a Honda e mine comes in one month now. Yippee!
Why say it’s a 2023 model? Are you Marty Mcfly? The newest model is a 2022. 2023 doesn’t even exist!
Can you disable the wireless charging? Is there a control to turn those on/off?
It will only charge your phone if it is supported and lined up correctly.
@@TechInTheCar So, no off-switch! Got it!
2023?? Good content though. Thx
Nice
2023 title, 2020 prices! That blue on white "RWD" is £44,990

too much waffle
