Solterra sells so bad that they have 9k manufacturer incentive in Canada; this has to be the only EV that charges slower than Model 3/Y these days.
Honda somehow sells 20-30k Prologue a year; it kinda sucks but still charges faster than Model Y.

I've only briefly sat in a face lift s, is it that much better? For the price wouldn't you want x for more room and practicality? I've driven the x and it's not bad. Also for the price of the s wouldn't you want lucid? I wonder if you can test drive cyber trucks yet?

I think S is just kinda the default cuz it was the hot car in the late 2010s. Defs some switching to Lucid but sales volume is still so low.
Thing is Silicon Valley needs to look humble but smart/dedicated to work.
Smoking, religion, and having kids is neither of these.
X makes it look like you got kids.
Lucid? no way you drive one if you're not a VC or have had multiple exits.
Yes, I can test drive a cybertruck in 15 minutes if I want.

Tesla still has the best integration of everything and overall experience is really easy but most EV charge at least 100% faster now.
1) they tried to do 4680 cell shape but those don’t leave room for cooling/heating
4680 Model Y charge super slow (70kw avg)
4680 Cybertruck even in 5C, the cold battery light never turn off
2) they tried LFP chemistry but those again charge slow af
3) all except Cybertruck are 400V, so they generate a lot of heat and again charge slow. Porsche/Hyundai/Lucid that average 200kw+ are all 800V.
4) thermal profile modelling I think needs work. Tesla starts cutting charge rate at 15-20%. Taycan, Ioniq, Silverado pull max charge rate till 60% (250-350kw). Means u can plug in at any % and charge quick.
These days Tesla is a piggy bank to pay off Twitter debt; innovation is gonna be done by other companies

Meh anyone who buys first year production cars (especially tesla) are just asking for it. You’re basically a glorified beta tester.

I like how this retard keeps driving instead of calling Tesla, grabbing a rental and letting them deal with all this shit.
I guess if you’re stupid enough to buy a cybertruck first year, you’re stupid enough to keep driving when you can’t see and are freezing to death.

Isn't the cyber truck only using cameras for FSD? No lidar etc? If the front facing cameras are inside the fogged up windows, he was definitely trying to speed run a Darwin Award.
