2021 Tesla Model Y review: Nearly great, critically flawed

The Tesla Model Y seems like the complete package, but its active safety suite is so fundamentally flawed that the whole dish is completely ruined.

https://www.cnet.com/roadshow/reviews/2021-tesla-model-y-review/

That’s a hatchet job of a review, posted by someone shorting Tesla stock. I think the reviewer has done the same.

The CEO of GM appears to be going insane -

 KILLED By Tesla: The Last Breath Of GM (bankrupt soon)

 

I suspect an increasing  backlash against crossovers & Suv's as crushing fuel inflation makes buyers & pcp leasers regret paying more for these juicy vehicles that will increasingly become targets of climate change taxation .

The big auto makers may be blamed  by the buyers for brain washing them 

Cars are too big nowadays and their headlights are far too bright  I'm sick of cars almost blinding me when they approach, it seems worse in those awful 4x4/7 seater horrors everyone drives. (range rover, land rover, Nissan Duke, X5)

Typical Teslacult.

Hes given many positive Tesla reviews in the past. This issue has been reported by other Tesla owners.

Sounds like maybe some got a USA built "Friday Afternoon" car. Not heard this as a problem from any UK model 3 owners.

Hardly a fanboi, but he is over dramatising the breaking. In one shot you see him lean toward long after he/the car brakes.

he goes on and on about the costs as well.

not at all impartial as the reviews are generally very positive.

Easy this electric vehicle lark init, if Tesla can do it , all Legacy makers will piss it as they have soooooo much experience making cars. 

That's my mind made up, my next change of EV wont be until the new Tesla Roadster is available in the UK.

I guess if you’d bought yourself a car in 2017 and sold out today you’d have doubled your money. So yet another on point thread predicting the future. 🤷🏻‍♂️

If you had bought Tesla shares in Dec 2017 and sold pre omicron dip you would have made 20x

good lord

I bought Tesla shares in 2016 😉 , but i'm a long term investor and bought more immediately post split , still hold them all, 50 shares. Perfectly happy.  

Someone here who took bought Tesla short shares in 2020 though, not so much! 🤕

It's clearly a real and serious problem but with FSD updates now coming almost weekly it's likely that this issue will soon be resolved. Once it is all the cars using this software will be updated overnight to eliminate the problem.

The i3 showed real potential but for whatever reason wasn't developed.

I suspect back then the petrolheads still ruled and starved it of development funds and their new all electric models make me think this is still the case, why would you stick a huge radiator grill on an EV? 

The specification of their latest iX EV seems pretty underwhelming what lunatic would pay £75k for a 257m (170 on the motorway) range car from a manufacturer with no charging network?

I think that's a good summing up. The new BM radiator grills are ugly to another level on all their cars
