    Hope people realise you have to pay extra for auto pilot. Like 10k or something, rude shock when I was looking them up. Early adopters tax.

    Seems like 4 banger Jap cars are still the way to go until Tesla gets some competitors in this space.

    • cya on 20/01/2022 - 11:50

      Autopilot comes as a standard feature in this car.

      What you might be reffering to is the additional/optional FSD feature.

      • Top G on 20/01/2022 - 12:12

        Autopilot is standard on any modern car, just fancy name for adaptive cruise control and lane change assist. Why FSD costs 10k???

        • dealsucker on 20/01/2022 - 12:21

          Except that lane centering and lane assist rarely work properly on any of them

        • onlinepred on 20/01/2022 - 13:19

          Lol btw, those features are on the base model, autopilot is technically like hands off the steering wheel - take me to this address. You are thinking of $10k for Full Self Driving.

        • dtpearson on 20/01/2022 - 15:09

          I don't think you can say that Autopilot is standard on ANY modern car! Maybe you are talking about adaptive cruise? My parents both have new Mercedes, and they have AC, and it works NOTHING like my Teslas Autopilot.

          FSD is so expensive because it keeps getting better, with an eye to one day being full L4-5 autonomy (I don't think they will get there but that's IMHO). That is what you are paying the big bucks for.

    • hippyhippy on 20/01/2022 - 11:53

      who would want to pay 10k for a feature you are basically beta testing for tesla and putting your life at risk at the same time … LOL

      • Naigrabzo on 20/01/2022 - 12:10

        It is similar to paying 50k extra for an Audi e-tron. Why is the Audi more expensive. Price placebo accounts for most of it.

    • websterp on 20/01/2022 - 11:57

      You are confused between Autopilot and FSD (which itself is a scam!)

    I read a great article how EV vehicles are not saving people that much. Once you factor in the price of both cars of similar stature, charging costs etc, doesn’t put weight the difference by much for the extra you pay for EV, especially when you need to buy a battery after warranty is expired.

      Firstly show me a sedan the size of Model 3 with the same features and at the same price - infotainment, panoramic glass roof, power everything including steering wheel adjustment, heated front and rear seats, a banging stereo. Once you have done that, tell me if it does 0-100 in 5.6 seconds? Once you have done that as well, tell me which car it and how much does it cost.

      I haven't even included the saving from not using fossil fuels, no servicing costs and no fluid changes required.

    • onlinepred on 20/01/2022 - 13:22

      Our work car is a Model 3, we charge it from solar on the work roof. We spent $92 in a year on electricity/maintenance on the Tesla.

      Meanwhile our i30 cost $1987 in petrol, $310 in maintenance in the same year. Fun fun!!! Next year is major service for the i30, so estimated $870.

    Tesla price is starting to look reasonable now when compared to ever increasing price of ICE cars. Although its in a desperate need of a styling freshen up. It looked dated when it came out, now it looks 20 years old.

      This will be interesting when it happens. Tesla have never had to do a major generation update, and whatever they do will most likely piss off half their customers. Just see how the BMW freaks behave every time they update their models :)

    • chuq on 20/01/2022 - 12:08
      +13

      They should take all the subsidies off fossil fuels as well so you can pay the real cost of petrol. If you can afford a car that costs hundreds of dollars a week to run you don't need the broader community to assist with your costs.

      • Springett on 20/01/2022 - 12:18

        If VIc state funds are being used to to subside fossil fuels, then yes, scrap them.

        If it’s federal money you refer to, the economics are somewhat different, do you have a reference?

        They should take all the subsidies off fossil fuels as well so you can pay the real cost of petrol

        Someone's been reading the Guardian again. The majority of 'fossil fuel subsidies' are tax incentives to major industry, which mean the government allows you to pay less tax on your profit, as opposed to actually handing you money (unlike green causes which tend to be handouts). This benefits you because it makes the manufacturing and freight costs for the all the stuff you buy cheaper. Without those YOU will be paying more for everything.

        And if all 'subsidies' were removed, the price of your Tesla would likely go up significantly too, since the roads are currently paid for by fuel excise which EV's don't pay. And those roads need to be paid for by someone. Once EV's reach critical mass and fuel use reduces you have a shock coming.

    in regards to repairs and accident claims. Are there dedicated places for EV?

    • Tazzaaa on 20/01/2022 - 12:09
      +2

      Yes, there are a few Tesla authorized repairers in each state. You should be able to find the list on Tesla website. Only they can buy parts from Tesla. Even if you insure without the choice of your repairer, the car would end up in one of those places anyway.

    • chuq on 20/01/2022 - 12:10

      Depends entirely on the car. For bodyworks there usually isn't anything different, although Tesla does have preferred/certified repairers.

    • spaceflight on 20/01/2022 - 12:51
      +1

      Don't worry about repairs as it's probably cheaper to buy a new Tesla.
      Here's one from America where the cost was $50,000 and took 3 months even though all needed parts were present at the body repair shop

          Oh that's right, I completely forgot that everything in Australia is cheaper. Especially Tesla parts because they are made at the old Holden factory in Adelaide.
          Our wages are also lower than in America. How could I forget that!

            -1

            @spaceflight: Erm, no, the things you're forgetting is the fact the Model 3 is mass produced in Shanghai now with an absolutely massive manufacturing plant that dwarfs the output of the Fremont plant, which is where the parts would have been coming from in your linked video.

            Also, the video you've linked is 3 years old now, before the Shanghai plant was even built, so this car would've been waiting on parts from the Fremont plant which was servicing the entire world at that point.
            Yes, the parts were somehow available in that repair place, but I don't think Tesla were at fault for the police taking 3 weeks to file a report and the repair place for taking an eternity to do the repair and potentially misquote him the first time.

            Oh, and the video is also a Model S, which isn't even available in Australia at the moment and hasn't been for a while.

            So yeah - you're talking shit and nothing of what you wrote is applicable to Australia.

          I've never heard of the chilled steering wheel!

          Anyways, literally no car manufacturer considers Australia important as we are such a small market. So it's unlikely that cooling will be given priority.

            But as max900 mentioned, it's been in the car nearly a full year now.

            Obviously not a big thing to the hotter states, but for the colder ones, it improves range hugely in cold weather when the heat is on.

    I bought a M3 last year in September. Back then, the base model was $61,985 driveway after the $3k subsidy.

    MY22 comes with a lot of upgrades compared to last year without any price increase.

    • loksmack on 20/01/2022 - 12:23
      +1

      It sure does. It does have one negative however in that it uses a less powerful motor and thus 0-100 drops by half a second (6.1s vs 5.6s).

      2021 had LFP too with the lower degradation, but 'only' 55kwh.

    • Naigrabzo on 20/01/2022 - 12:27

      They've come with LFP batteries since Dec 2020. The Dec 2021 change was from 55 to 60 kWh. So loksmack hasn't missed out on any degradation rate change.

    • Dogsrule on 20/01/2022 - 12:50

      One small correction - the 55kW/h battery sold before October last year was also LFP.

    • 11112007 on 20/01/2022 - 14:38

      2021 cars built after 1/10 have 62.5kwh LFP.

      The cars built between 1/10 and 20/10 have 62.5kwh and the 980 motor which is the same one in the P, these cars are considered unicorns because they maintain the 5.6s. cars after this period have the LR rear motor which is why they are slower.

      Overall I am ok with this warranty but wish it was much better for a $59k car. I consider 59k expensive because I can buy Toyota corolla hybrid for 30k with better warranty but realise it's not really a fair comparison.

      Tesla remains king of electric cars because they started in 2009 way before any of the other phools even thought of it as viable.
