HOW IS THE 2018 TESLA MODEL S 75D

EV Channels Review

The reviewer provides a detailed look at a 2018 Tesla Model S 75D loaner, noting its classic interior design with physical controls like the steering wheel stalk and glove box button, which he prefers over newer Teslas' screen-based adjustments. He appreciates the sunroof and the trunk's folding floor cover. However, the car exhibits significant battery degradation, losing 10% charge over two days, and the reviewer finds the one-pedal driving less aggressive than in newer models, requiring more frequent use of the brake pedal. Criticisms include a short, awkwardly positioned center armrest and a broken console lid. While acknowledging its charm, the reviewer ultimately recommends a used 2021+ Model 3 Long Range over this Model S if prices are comparable, suggesting the 75D is only a compelling buy under $30,000 due to its age and battery condition.
