NEW TESLA RELEASED A HUGE DOWNGRADE | THIS COULD BE GOOD

EV Channels Review

This video delves into several key Tesla updates, highlighting both positive and concerning developments. On the positive side, a JD Power study reaffirms Tesla's continued dominance in the EV charging sector, with their Supercharger network significantly outperforming competitors in customer satisfaction, even with the inclusion of non-Tesla vehicles. The review also touches on Tesla's commitment to updating older MCU1 vehicles with new safety features like improved automatic emergency braking, demonstrating a dedication to long-term owner support. However, the most significant news is the introduction of a 'downgraded' Model 3 in Mexico. This RWD variant features textile seats, lacks heated steering and ventilated seats, and has a simplified interior with a non-RGB ambient lighting and acoustic glass only on the front windows. While these changes reduce the car's cost to approximately $35,000, aligning with Tesla's original price promise, they represent a notable step back in interior luxury and features compared to previous models. The video also briefly discusses the upcoming Robotaxi and Lucid's strategy of selling demo vehicles at a discount.
