      Ikr? Carwow have been making a lot of advertisements recently, especially for the chinese. They’ve gotten more and more greedy and their quality of reviews dropped pretty significantly.

      @milinddixit6583 I think that they’re referring more to the fact that it seems like both videos were filmed in the same location at the same time…

      Was hoping for much more range. Awesome looking vehicle but not worth trading in my Model Y sadly. Range is huge for us cold weather climate

    When he said “it’s a brilliant looking car”, I right away thought that it looks as if it’s wearing glasses.

      100, of course it is, they are still calling Tesla good despite sales figures not agreeing

      @davidm8394 Sales figures do not necessarily reflect if a car is good… or bad… if at all.

      You know for sure it’s going to be closer to $65-$70k.
