    Taycan Turbo S vs. Model S Plaid - really by this much!?

    I think you’re 100% right. No car is perfect, and I am happy to acknowledge the good in Tesla’s, as well as some of the shortcomings of the Taycan. For it’s price bracket, I don’t think there is a better EV than a Model 3, yet. I know there are many on the horizon (the i4 in particular looks...

    Scared to ask... anyone tempted by Model S Plaid?

    Can’t we all just get along? ? Tesla deserve a lot of credit for pushing the whole EV car industry on, and for some of the innovative things they have brought….such as OTA updates and Sentry Mode. Car-wise, until the Model 3 came along, their previous efforts were poorly made, poorly...

    Taycan Turbo S vs. Model S Plaid - really by this much!?

    Tesla deserve their dues. They have made a blistering fast car (in a straight line), improved the handling (which was atrocious before), build quality and the repeatability. These are not insignificant things. However, the car drives nowhere near as well as a Taycan….the build quality and...

    Tesla Model S price increases to $89,990

    It does, but they are haptic. So again, if I asked you to turn the air con temp up and down on a taycan, you probably wouldn’t be able to do it blind. To relegate something so basic, frequent and important such as switching between drive and reverse, to something you can’t do instinctively or...

    Tesla Model S price increases to $89,990

    I don’t see why not. I don’t have any vendetta against Tesla. If the chargers are more conveniently located on my route, or offer a faster charging option than others, sure.

    Tesla Model S price increases to $89,990

    I'm sure it is selling well. There is lots to applaud. The speed accomplishment is significant. Especially at the higher end (60-130mph), and finally getting repeatability right, even at low battery charge. The build quality has been significantly improved, so that panel gaps and creaks are...

    Tesla Model S price increases to $89,990

    Yeah, fair enough. Although for this sort of money, you would at least expect leather seats. ?

    Tesla Model S price increases to $89,990

    It has very impressive acceleration. Which is “cool”. However, once you get beyond that…. And yeah, Premium is not a word that can be used in the same sentence as Tesla. Still not sure how they were even legally allowed to get away with that wheel, buttons and “gear shift” combination. Dangerous...

    Tesla Model S price increases to $89,990

    And now you only get half a steering wheel.

    Scared to ask... anyone tempted by Model S Plaid?

    Tesla has done lots of things to push the EV market forward, but their cars are designed around what Elon finds cool, rather than what makes a good car. The old Model S and X handle horrifically. They may be able to go fast in a straight line, but the second you turn the wheel, the whole car...
