The Tesla Model S Plaid is one of the coolest vehicles in the modern era. Many have reviewed this car after an afternoon drive. I've now owned this car for 6 months and thought it was high time to give it a thorough review. Let's see what I make of the Tesla Model S Plaid review after 6 months. Enjoy!

They don't understand the reason for their own irritation at the lack of noise. It's because when you are watching video the *noise* is what you respond to. You can't actually feel anything. When you are in the car - the G force and speed are what you respond to. Newsflash -> G force and speed are not - boring. lol. Cars don't need to sound like lawn mowers in order to be exciting.

@@summertyme5748 that's just a matter of opinion though. Most people prefer to hear the car as well as feel the "G force and speed". That's also what's exciting to them.

It was a very informative video, although glossing over potential build quality issues with "I'm not gonna address it because the car is fast" isn't really a good excuse, it's an expensive car that is indeed a bargain for the performance, but is still held to a higher standard. Low maintenance is a fantastic plus to any EVs, despite the fact that a car this powerful is going to eat expensive tires like a fat kid with chicken nuggets at a Golden Corral.
@walkerb1734
@walkerb1734 2 года назад
I have a question…. When using the trip planner, can you set a minimum of the charge level remaining to calculate where to stop for charge? For example, you mention pulling into a charger with 1% left. That would stress me out. Can you instead state that there be at a minimum…say…10% limit where the car wont go below.? Not sure if my question makes sense, but would appreciate your thoughts/suggestions
@mrmichrom8553

The handling is nuts, it takes some getting used to because it is that good. I love how heavy they are, it feels like they just hug the road. That acceleration is scary at first but you get used to the zero engine noise as you are zipping around through traffic. Elon is too funny, I was like what is this Bio Weapon mode lmao. The 3 and the Y were surprisingly intuitive and I loved that 1 pedal driving. First time, demo driver...
@DescartesRenegade
@DescartesRenegade 2 года назад
I have the gen 2 refresh and the headlights and taillights are soooo much better. That rear trim piece doesn't intrude into the taillights. One short falling is the charger door, it's faulty and often makes popping noises that sound like it's either offtrack or struggling to open against some resistance then suddenly give way.

@@DescartesRenegade absolutely, I love Tesla but at the updated prices I think they should look to add more value, even as an additional purchase option. Any option is better than nothing. I have a 2021 Model Y and I seriously debated buying the new S, but didn’t feel like it was enough of an upgrade in my life to warrant the cost. I like the look of the roof racks way better on the Y, the range is only about 70 miles more which is great but not almost double the price great. Personally not sure if I can get used to the yoke either, wish that was optional. The screen is 2” bigger on the S, but the Y is still good enough for me. More cargo space in the Y, seems better for camping plus it’s got more ground clearance. The S is more comfortable, quieter, faster and more range but it’s also longer and wider which makes it a much tighter fit in my garage. And the fact they did away with unlimited supercharging for X and S is kind of ridiculous IMO especially after all the price increases. Personally the only reason I’d even considering selling my Y right now is cause it’s worth at least 70k at the current market price which is a lot more than I paid for it.

Those headlights are not unique to the PLAID. They’re the same headlights as the long range as well. Those headlights are not great either, in fact they were rated POOR by IIHS. That’s why Tesla has changed the headlights on the newer refresh models.

I invested in Tesla when I drove the model SP 85 back in 2012. Bought a lot of shares and made a lot of money. Personally: I can’t bring myself to actually buy a Tesla because I am completely disappointed with their interiors. Every single Tesla, at the price that they are selling these cars, should include heated and cooled seats. The model X and model S should include heated/cooled/massage seats. The minimalist interior is also a major turn off for me. Even if they wanted to hide the buttons for the seat features, those features should be there. In many Teslas, they aren’t. The only Tesla I could see myself in is a model X but I recently ordered a Cadillac Lyriq because I wasn’t impressed with the interior space of the Mercedes EQS. I would probably take a BMW IX over the Tesla model X. The BMW IX has a lot of interior space and all the features I DEMAND.

It was pure arrogance launching these cars without giving buyers the option between the regular steering wheel and the yolk. That has always been my biggest problem with Tesla: it’s always felt like an ego trip by Elon Musk and right now we can see how that’s backfireing against their stock and against everything musk touches. The arrogance and the unprofessionalism is impossible to overlook.
