NEW TESLA MODEL S MAX | 752 MILES OF RANGE

EV Channels Review

This video delves into recent Tesla news, highlighting a significant achievement by r-n-e-x-t energy in demonstrating a Tesla Model S with an astonishing 752-mile range, albeit under controlled conditions (55 mph). While this is a proof-of-concept and not a production Tesla, it addresses range anxiety. The review also covers Tesla's record Q4 2021 delivery numbers, exceeding expectations and setting a strong run rate for 2022. However, a recall affecting nearly half a million Model 3 and S vehicles due to potential front trunk latch and rear-view camera cable issues is noted, though the fix is described as minor. Significant updates for the 2022 Model 3 and Y are detailed, including the AMD Ryzen infotainment chip for improved performance and a new 12-volt lithium-ion battery for longevity. The potential addition of heated windshield wipers is also mentioned. The video touches upon the anticipated Cybertruck, noting the potential addition of a four-motor variant and continued delays, with its website now indicating an uncertain timeline. Finally, the Tesla Holiday software update (v11) is discussed, praising features like waypoints and blind-spot cameras but criticizing the UI changes that make essential functions less accessible. The release of Track Mode for the Plaid Model S is also highlighted as a significant performance enhancement.
