Excellent idea, with no company backing

This is new technology, so there will be bumps in the road, but after you spend $100,000 + for a car, to have the company offer you $43,500 to trade it in for the new model in only two years! And you want the newest model hoping it wont have as many bugs as the one you have! I have owned a model S for 17 months and it has been in the shop SIX times. The local service center is TERRIBLE for two reasons: the man running it is incompetent and they are over run with issues because the Model S is issue prone. They take care of it 100%, but they just keep popping up. What do you think happens after 50k miles when the warranty runs out? It's too bad because I love the car and the way it drives. but to lose $60,000 in Value in 24 months means I am spending $2500 a month to drive it. Oh but Tesla wants to say I spent no money on GAS!!

2 Years driving a Tesla S P85+

It s been 2 years now since i received my Tesla in France. At first you are afraid to be left on the side of the road with no battery. Then you start enjoying the amazing power under the hood and to understand that long journeys are not an issue . You finally use your Tesla as you were using any other cars before with the difference that dont pollute , you dont make any noises at night cruising in quiet places were people are sleeping. A complete fantastic experience luxury, design, class and extremely reliable. As soon as something happen you call Tesla they will give you the best customer service i have ever seen in this industry. Try it but be aware you won't be able to go back to anyhting else . And for the first comment on this site i do plug my iPhone to my Tesla every day and it does charge . False testimony obviously a a very old one.

Safest Car Made!

Had the car for almost 3 years now. Very reliable and has never stranded me. Taken on many long trips too. Super safe, rated better than any other vehicle, since there is no engine in front to slam into the cabin in the event of a crash. Handles great and very comfortable. Only issue is now I hate to drive in any ICE car. It really spoils you that much!

Poor electric capibilties

for an eletric vehicle, it does not utilize it like desired. i plugged my ipod into it and hit the gas expecting my ipod to charge. the only thing that happened is the engine revved. i couldnt even access my microsoft word documents. overall it was a poor electric experience.

Amazing Car!!!

This car is totally amazing!! It is a classic example of luxury. The large screen inside the car gives you control of everything, as well as the Tesla app. The car runs smooth, so smooth in fact, that it feels like you're going 20 mph when in reality you're going 55 mph. The range available on the 85D battery removes the worry of gas prices. There are two trunks, including one where the engine would be on a motorized car. An additional two seats can be factory- installed to add up to 7 seats total. This car is the definition of comfort and luxury. This is a car I'd recommend to anybody!!
