    • Not contradicting this but ALL Tesla's are known for having stiff unforgiving rides. The new ones will still be firmer than any other EV on the market.

    Majority of the people comment here wont be able to afford $50k plus Tesla.
    Let alone getting equivalent "european" cars which double the cost.
    Yet have time to put their energy to hate Tesla and Elon.
    Otherwise it's a great car.
    I own one.
    So far only spend $40 on wiper fluids. $60 wiper and $120 2x rotation. And $350 home charging cost for 18 months.

      I dunno. I like to think OzBargainers are canny shoppers of a range of disposable incomes, not just $2 shop types.

      Musk has made himself the 'Tesla posterboy' (despite not actually having a hand in starting it). So unlike (or far more than) any other car company CEO, what he does affects how the cars are viewed. Particularly since he started buying election results and acting like a dictators puppet master.

      a specced camry cost circa 50k nowadays.. let's not add elitism into an already unfortunate mix of traits of tesla drivers

      • +2

        More like $60k for a car that has nowhere near the safety and tech features that a Tesla has.

    • Sounds like you are unfamiliar with novated lease policies in Australia. Depending on tax bracket, an euro EV costs about the same as a petrol Toyota Camry on novated lease (Camry is ozbargain’s default pick for a car)

      Politics aside, I see Teslas as the Toyota Camrys of the EV world and it’s completely within financial reach of the average ozbargain user.

      (Source: I recently got an iX3 on NL and very happy; interior is much much nicer than any Tesla; I do not own a Toyota Camry so take my words with a grain of salt)

      had a look at bmw EV, double the cost, samsung motor, not sure whose battery. Tesla created the current EV market, prior to tesla mass produced EVs had bad batteries, lacked mod cons now others are catching up, but outside of china, teslas is only one with vertical supply chain integration, e.g gm, merc,bmw all buy other people’s batteries.

    • Really? Most people could buy this with an average wage lol. By modern standards it's barely an expensive new car particularly compared to those of similar size/utility.

    • Higher education levels correlate with both having higher income and holding more progressive views, so not sure your little theory checks out.

  • +10

    Wow, who would have thought that the CEO of a car company acting out as a petulant child would have real world ramifications for his company’s ability to shift product.

    I for one welcome the USA sending herr Musk all that welfare to subsidise their sales. It’s a great sign that a company is going out arse backwards when they have to rely on government hand outs.

    Stock price in free fall, massive sales nose dive, consumers losing confidence, investors seeing it for the Ponzi scheme it is, there is so much to like here.

        It is if it's a high yield bmw

        This is not indicative of "true costs" and is an anecdotal experience at best where you have omitted other key details on cost of ownership in your "true costs" estimate.

        Majority of the people comment here wont be able to afford $50k plus Tesla.

        What most likely caused you the negs is not so much your indepth and informative analysis of Tesla ownership costs, but your snide remark suggesting that the reason people on this site don't own a Tesla, is mostly based on them not being able to afford a Tesla.

        $50k is not a "stretch" for most people and it sits right in the middle of what most new family SUV's would cost and is inline with most of the "what car should I buy" threads expectations on price. That, coupled with generous federal tax incentives to novated lease, these vehicles means that they are probably cheaper to own in the long run than their equivalent petrol/diesel only powered options.

          Do i need to send you receipts to proof that they are real running cost :(
          Tesla app even have a detail running cost of charging down to the cents (home + supercharger). Just punch in your electricity rate in the app. I have 8cents rate off peak.
          It even collects petrol data for saving comparison against petrol.
          In 6 months time i need to visit Tesla, likely to replace the air filter which cost less than $100.

    • Its what you call buying a product eyes wide open and giving a shit about the moral compass of a company and/or the views of its leadership team (or in this case the cult leader)

    • -1

      How is direct association with fascism not a relevant consideration when looking at a product, though?

      People love to pretend they are "not political" without acknowledging that a failure to reject, e.g., fascism is also a political decision.

      I don't think it's a student union political debating point to say "I won't buy a car from a guy doing Nazis salutes and actively working to help unravel the post-war democratic order upon which my way of life depends".

      • I see that word fascism thrown around alot these days… don't even know what it means, not sure most even do.

        • Look it up. A lot of what is happening in the US right now ticks a lot of the generally accepted boxes. Also if you don't think nazi salutes are associated with fascism I don't know if you can be helped.

  • +7

    Hmm, a while ago I said if it dropped under $50k I will buy one. I'll have to eat my words at this point.

    From a monetary perspective (ignoring Elon and what he stands for) - the Model Y pre-Juniper (apart from the bad suspension) is fantastic value for a city SUV. You get FBT benefits (and claim the GST), low running costs (servicing and charging), huge cabin and boot (you can put 3 baby seats beside each other - not many mid-SUVs can do this). The effective costs of this car us way under $40k.

    Of course you will have to put up with - no driver HUD or cluster, one pedal driving to be the most efficient (instead of blended braking/cruise), no AA/AC, frumpy large glasshouse (but gives good interior space) amongst other things.

      ignoring Elon and what he stands for

      What does he stand for? I'm genuinely curious about this.

      • Best to ask Elon. Who knows, because we can only see what he does.

        • Best to ask Elon. Who knows

          Which is the right answer.
          But apparently a lot of people in here think they know, so I'm just curious to find out how those people landed where they did.

      • Probably wants to be the first trillionaire but he's pillaging the US to do it.

          Probably wants…

          Got anything more substantial than that?

          but he's pillaging the US to do it.

          This is the same guy trying to help save the US from bankruptcy right? How do you think that would happen?

    • Coasting is more efficient than one pedal driving, porsche did a whole spiel on this a few years ago.

      Model Y was weirdly the best value for its size back then, probably due to lack of competition and the fact that you'd have to spend $100k for anything bigger.

      Alot more competition now though, I passed on this 2 years ago for an atto 3 since there was a 20k difference in price, I'd probably pass on it again in a years time when my lease is over for the 4.5sec sealion.

      • What competition do you see at this price? I recently did a deep dive and couldn't find anything anything near this value

        • Sealion 7, xpeng g6 closes competitors, with byd being "more proven"

          ev 5, ioniq 5 now within price range

          • @krisspy: I'd agree with close compeditors, but it's worth noting both are ~$5k more (~10%)

            I'd disagree that byd is "more proven" than tesla (but agree that it's started to prove itself over the past two years if that's what you meant, though many reports of sourcing parts being difficult)

    • To be fair, this isn't under $50K. All-in cost will still be over 50, even after the ZEV rebate.

      (That being said, I think this is a cracker of a deal for a EV. All the competitors to MY are lacking in comparison.)

        Now that's a good thing. In Australia we shouldn't have fixed glass roof like that. It shows that the designer has never been to Australia or have no idea of our conditions or most likely don't care.

        Glass roof is ok but needs to have closing mechanism and insulation so that it doesn't burn ya head when driving.

        It's not just Tesla but some others seem to have this too.

        • I dunno for those of us in VIC it hardly matters.. (but then I have a seal and the glass roof is both infinitely more shielded and they provide shades).

          • @drprox: The sun in Australia can be a real bastard anywhere.

    • I was thinking the same thing, I've only ridden Teslas on ubers, every time I'm thinking there's no way this is good especially in summer.

    • My mazda got vandalised. I guess nobody should buy a mazda either

    I think the Europeans get it. Tesla sales down 45% in January and the Nazi salute and President Musk happened later in the month. So February sales are going to be a shocker. To those defending the salute, Elon has done traditional heart signs with his hands before to crowds to show his appreciation. So he could have done this too at the inauguration. But no he chose a textbook Nazi salute.

                  The funny thing is that is the Nazi slur hadn't been used 47 million times in the last 8 years, regular people might take it more seriously. But we're at the point now crying wolf has become meaningless.

                  So yeah, I think that 'Person_I_don't_like_is_a_Nazi' is the mark of an immature/crazy person who doesn't know how to construct an actual argument.

      I was tossing between BYD and Tesla Y and ended up buying Tesla as it is a well-established brand in Australia compared to BYD. BYD has minimal service centres and their exclusive alliance with MyCar for servicing makes me nervous as I didn't have a good experience with MyCar (formerly known as Kmart Tyres). BYD in Australia is almost $20k more expensive than their Chinese equivalent, and it's the importer in Aus who is setting the Australian prices. This means that they have a lot of room to keep decreasing the prices over time which will continue to devalue the old BYD cars - but value is not something you look at when you buy a new car (unless it's Toyota) as even Tesla prices go down.

      I also didn't like BYD infotainment, although it comes with an amazing wireless Apple CarPlay, but I noticed during the test drive that if you are using CarPlay navigation, the screen doesn't show the cameras when using blinkers (a function that Tesla has). I am sure this is only now during the early days and BYD should be able to fix this later on.

      Keeping the ELON related hate aside, I figured that although expensive, Tesla is still a better car than BYD. This may change down the line as BYD gets more established. I recall people had a lot of reservation about KIA when it first came to Australia but rest is a history.

      PS. Someone will get triggered with what I said but remember - this is how I made my decision, I am not asking anyone else to make decision on these reasoning. :)

      • +1

        That's a good assessment thanks. I recently purchased an Atto 3 (waiting on delivery) and am fortunate to have a BYD service centre very close. I wasn't after a car as large as a Model Y so the decision was easier.

        • fortunate to have a BYD service centre very close

          That's awesome, congratulations - you gonna love it :)

          • @IMadeYouReadThis: By BYD service centre you mean your local MyCar?

            • @freeb1e4me: @freeb1e4me I think you were meant to tag @greater mimic.

              I understand that BYD has some service centres which is a combination of showroom+service centre so OP may be referring to that but in any case, he can confirm :)

              • @IMadeYouReadThis: My bad and thanks for tagging.

                But in your case you didn’t have a BYD service centre close to you, except for MyCar, which I agree are very bad, so you decided on a Tesla? … just to confirm.

                Any regrets…Truth pls

                • @freeb1e4me: yes BYD service centre was almosy 40km away and the wait time I heard was horrendous. Not all MyCar are participating service centres and I wasn't a huge fan of them anyway. Yes, decided on Tesla but still waiting for the delivery :)

            • @freeb1e4me: Nope service centre, just checked the website to confirm. It's also a dealership (experience centre) but I remember when I test drove there seeing the service area.

              Just checked and it's a 7 min drive from home so that works out well.

      • Cheers thanks for some balanced feedback,yea the lack of customer service for a 50k item is definitely a minus, I'm not sure how much better Tesla is in that way/established?
        You'd think if your looking to conquer a market , you'd be going big on that from the start.so seems Abit of mixed bag at the moment, hopefully 2025 brings lower prices and more clarity

        • I'm not sure how much better Tesla is in that way/established?

          I would say they are somewhat better, at least in the metro cities and I have also heard their mobile service is pretty good too.

      • Your reasons are quite reasonable. :)

      • To be fair, they do need to convert to RHD, extra Australian safety and compliance, and import it here. Would be good to see the actual figures though.

    • +1

      I don't think BYD have a car with as much boot space as the Model Y.
      Servicing costs of the Tesla will be lower.
      I think it's a great deal. But Elon ruins it for me.

  • While you’re all bickering about politics another talking point should be whether one should just hold out for the New Model Y just a few months out. Reviews say night and day better in terms of ride comfort, cabin noise, new tech. I wouldn’t buy this knowing that’s so close. Prices on New Model Y will come down too

    • New order will be Juniper new model only.
      Unless you want to go for old stock.

    • New model is already out m and available to order.

  • -3

    You people coining the term nazi should utilize humility to educate yourself on the term.

    Nazism is extremely synonymous with socialism and communism. Any moves away from big government and towards free speech have always been patently anti-Nazi.

    So if you dislike someone, find the correct reasons and ways of expressing it. Don't use one of the most heinous events in modern history to completely incorrectly characterise someone who is exhibiting the complete opposite characteristics - that is to promote free speech and minimize government control and spending on private citizens.
