EV Channels Review

This video debunks several popular Tesla myths, separating fact from fiction. The reviewer confirms that car washes do not damage Teslas, even without 'car wash mode,' which merely locks doors and windows. While watching videos while driving is technically possible via workarounds, it's illegal and not recommended. The myth of unlocking hidden range with a secret code is debunked; the 'code' actually accesses service or showroom modes, not a range boost. A legitimate 'range boost' upgrade exists but is a paid software option for specific Model Y variants. The reviewer also addresses range anxiety, emphasizing Tesla's navigation system and suggesting switching to percentage display for comfort. The new 'low power mode' is highlighted as a feature to reduce phantom drain. Crucially, the myth of sleeping while 'Full Self-Driving' is active is definitively busted; the interior camera requires driver attention, and the system will disengage if the driver is inattentive. Finally, the video touches on software updates, noting that the 'advanced' setting and Wi-Fi are the only user-controllable factors, with updates rolling out in waves.
