The one time the car couldn’t be remotely rectified happened because a front engine bolt failed, dropped the engine enough to twist the main shaft and damaged the motor beyond repair. This, coupled with the fact that there are NO SCHEDULED SERVICES needed for a Tesla, allows you to quickly get back the premium you spend on the vehicle in the first place. He responded that it’s counter-intuitive for Tesla to charge a client for something that has gone wrong on the vehicle if they can design it in the first place to be fixed remotely!

This is a FREE OF CHARGE Service for LIFE! I asked the local Service Boss why Tesla doesn’t charge for this rectification procedure.

But, on 4 ocassions, a phone call to the 24/7 help desk, who are able to carry out a full remote diagnosis of the car has seen the fault rectified 4 times and me sent on my way. With Tesla not having an extensive dealership network, this lack of service centres is scary. If you remove the 250-350kg internal combustion engine/transmission from above the axle, and you replace it with a perfectly distributed 800kg battery pack that rests at or BELOW the axle height, with a fantastic AWD system and fat tyres, its going to run rings around a BMW X5.ĭuring its 207,000kms it’s covered, 5 times the car has gone into “limp mode”. This Model X is the best handling large SUV out there. The Comedy channels are great - all free. I ticked the stereo upgrade, and along with the free Spotify subscription you get for LIFE, you will rediscover music of your youth, and endless new music of today. It’s not a pretty car, front on is ugly, side and quarter views better, with a strong rear-end.
The 2nd row very conveniently moves forward and tilts on an Electric single post, a winner! Otherwise the seats are fantastically comfortable and the easiest accessibile 3rd row of any SUV.
Possibly the ONLY SUV that doesn’t have lay-flat seats. The worst thing about the early build cabins is the solid 2nd row seats. If I was still in the Audi Q7, that would be close to $25,000km worth of diesel! Tesla also had the VERY generous “FREE ENERGY FOR LIFE” deal at any of its Superchargers, a huge saving on the 207,000kms the car has covered over the 30 months I’ve operated it. Faced with our Accountant telling us 2 years running that our 20 year old Chauffeur car business, with German Cars was sending us broke, forced me into thinking outside the square.Ī Tesla promised a minimum of ongoing maintenance and rectification costs.
