TESLA SETS NEW BENCHMARK / ELON WON'T LIKE THIS / WHAT'S GOING ON WITH TESLA LEASING

EV Channels Review

The video highlights the Tesla Cybertruck's exceptional 15-speaker sound system, which the reviewer considers a benchmark for trucks, surpassing even premium systems in luxury vehicles. The discussion also delves into the Cybertruck's high North American content percentage (65% from Canada, 25% from Mexico), reinforcing its 'American-made' status, a point contrasted with Ford's F-150 Lightning. A significant portion addresses the Porsche Taycan Turbo GT's new Nürburgring lap record, which is faster than the Model S Plaid's best time, suggesting a potential shift in Tesla's focus from track performance to family sedan utility. The review also touches upon Tesla's declining lease penetration rates, attributed to higher interest rates and lower residual values, and notes the ongoing challenges and sales figures for GM's Ultium-based EVs. Finally, it mentions the exclusion of Elon Musk from a deposition in a fatal accident lawsuit and the ban of Tesla vehicles from Norwegian driving schools due to difficulties with the stalk-less controls.
