EV Channels Review

Tesla Tom reviews the $4000 MCU2 upgrade for his 2015 Model S, detailing the significant improvements over the original MCU1. The primary benefit highlighted is the drastic reduction in loading times for maps, music, and web browsing, transforming the infotainment system from sluggish and unreliable to highly responsive. Tom emphasizes that beyond the speed increase, the upgrade restores crucial safety features and reliability, which had become compromised with MCU1 due to hardware degradation. While the cost is substantial, Tom concludes it's a worthwhile investment, effectively making the car feel new again and preserving its resale value. He also notes the addition of entertainment features like games and streaming services, which were previously unavailable. The review also touches on the positive service experience at Tesla Alexandria.
