Tesla Talk

I would hope so, it is the recommended tyre pressure for Model 3..

Is there anywhere I can find more information on the battery life expectancy beyond the mileage or 8 year warranty. I'm considering buying a M3 (or even 2020 or 2021 second hand) and holding onto it for a while and wondering am I likely to get much beyond the 8 years. We don't do a massive amount of driving so not sure we would even hit the KM limit before the 8 years is up.

LFP batteries would generally have less degradation over time too so if you're looking at the 3 RWD as opposed to the 3 SR+ for instance that could make a difference

Great Vid.

• Not surprised TBH about the Model S given it is Tesla's first volume production car.
• Can relate to the issue about the linkages - Ive had issues with steering/track rods, linkages and rear ball joints in my Fremont built M3. Mad squeaks also, some were linkages requiring replacement, other easily sorted with bushes being worn out.
• Good to hear an independent expert note that quality in general though of the M3 (and MY by extension) though.

@jobrien19 - you should watch from 31:15- Swedish mechanic that services 100-200 Teslas a year, discussed battery reliability.

Thank you I'll give it a watch this evening. Happy that the feedback from other users here so far has been overwhelmingly positive at least and has eased my worries at least.

That's a pretty good price.

The online site I looked at prices them at €212 each and then extra for fitting, balancing and alignment.

I think Tesla increased their prices in China when the highland launched so would be interesting to see is the pricing back to where it was 3 months ago or cheaper than that.

There's two chances a $25k Tesla will be for sale in 2025

I usually have two words for the second "none", but that's not very family friendly 😂

Very mixed bag of results.

Narrow misses across the board for EPS, margins and revenue.

margins now 17% (but helped by temporary drops in materials costs, and also recognising a bunch of FSD revenue (??!!). Would be 14% otherwise.

and maybe most odd of all, they failed to give growth guidance on 2024 - they’ve traded as a growth tech company their whole existence, but are only saying 2024 will be much lower growth than (already lowered) 2023.

fun drinking game: search for ‘Ai and robotics” in the call transcript 😂, versus almost zero 12 months ago; but apparently a core focus now - he’s some chancer lads, honestly.

shares down at $196 after hours, but actually holding up well considering. If they don’t give 2024 guidance shortly then that price will drop, considering they’re still trading at a huge P/E.
