2020 Tesla Model S consumer reviews

I had my Tesla S for about four months now. Its a great car. Have a Nemi 14-50 outlet in the garage for 40 amps. It charges faster than what the appl. says. Autopilot is about 80% self driving and is great in traffic. I don't think the extra $200 for FSD is worth it. It quiet and powerful. I go 150 to 175 miles between charges on a longer trip. Plenty of charge stations around

I really like my Model S Long Range. I purchased it new in June 2020 and have had minor issues that were resolved quickly and with no hassle. When my left, thumb control stopped responding, I schedule a repair in my app. The mobile repair technician came to my house on the appointed day to replace it. The mobile repair guy has come by my work to rotate my tires too. Since I purchased my car under a promotion, I have free, unlimited Supercharging for the life of the car. Driving for free is an extra benefit that makes this car a dream to own.

Best car I have ever owned. Fast, comfortable and a great driver's car. Previously had a heavily tuned Audi S6 but the Model S performance has been a significant step up. First car where the technology improves the driving experience - all other ones I have owned I just defaulted to my cell phone for everything. Love charging at home. Only critique is that the fit and finish isn't up to German standards. Trade off is definitely worth it though.

Tesla Model S is the best car I've ever driven. It's fast, it's smooth and the technology that comes with it is lightyears ahead of anything that's out there today. 0-60 in 2.9 literally pulls your body into the seat like your on the Gravitron. Auto-Pilot is amazing and makes long drives a piece of cake as it drives for you. Still have to pay attention to the road but it is very adaptive and it's fun to watch the car drive itself. Charging is easy if you're just driving around the city. If you are taking it on a long trip, a quick 20 minute stop at a charging station every 3 hrs will keep you on your way. The interior is not like a Mercedes and would like to see Telsla update that some day. But everything else about this car is stellar. Would definitely recommend, especially if you're someone who likes having the latest and greatest tech

Tesla Service is absolutely awful. It has taken two months to get control arms replaced. They replaced windshield and now it leaks. They want to charge me for a second one because they say they don't warranty windshields. No joke. First you schedule a service issue. Then they schedule you three weeks out and diagnose the problem. Then they schedule you to come back in another 4 weeks to have the problem repaired. All the while they send you snarky text responses to your questions and tell you how all of this is your fault. They all need service at some point. I don't see this getting better any time soon. This was also the second time this happened. The first time was for severe shaking during acceleration. Same awful experience. Takes weeks to fix and you have to deal with snarky, condescending text messages on the app. BOTTOM LINE: DONT BUY A TESLA.

What doesn't this car do? It's faster to 60 than an AMG GTR, with more back leg room than a Town Car (and a larger cargo space). It updates itself over the internet like your phone. It has the best bluetooth implementation I've ever seen. The entire roof is made of glass, so you can see the stars at night by looking up. You can make the most ridiculous merges because you know you have instant power, all while being more efficient than the gas car you now find obsolete. The major trade-off is travel distance, but at 348 miles per charge, and the average person driving just 40 miles a day... not far enough? Give me a break. If your job/lifestyle has you driving more than that, you're likely not reading this review anyway. Test drive a Tesla. You're gonna be surprised.

I traded in my models s 2017 for a long range plus and the fit and finish on the new car is terrible. I purchased back in March and due to lockdown delivery was unable to inspect closely when picked up. I was told that service would fix issues but now service is saying all these gaps and paint issues are Tesla tolerance. My advice when picking up go over with detail and take your time. Don’t let them rush you. If you have any doubt don’t accept the car as they won’t fix it at service unlike the promises. Wanted to write this review to advise others. Overall not a bad car but looks cheap with all the gaps.
