REDLINE HAPPY HOUR LIVE CHAT WITH AOA & TFL

EV Channels Review

This 'Redline Happy Hour' live chat features Alex on Autos and The Fast Lane Car discussing various automotive topics, with a significant portion dedicated to the Tesla Model Y. The reviewers express mixed feelings about the Model Y's aesthetics, with initial impressions leaning towards "hideous" or "pregnant turtle" but acknowledging it looks better in person. They note its practicality, particularly the increased rear legroom compared to the Model 3, and its sporty driving dynamics. However, concerns are raised about its limited ground clearance and articulation, deeming it unsuitable for off-roading. The discussion also touches upon Tesla's over-the-air updates, the polarizing glass roof, and the lack of Apple CarPlay/Android Auto. Other vehicles briefly discussed include the Mercedes GLB, VW e-Golf, Hyundai Ioniq, and Nissan Sentra, with the GLB receiving praise for its design and packaging.
