MASSIVE TESLA MODEL Y EAST COAST ROAD TRIP ADVENTURE PART 2

EV Channels Review

This video chronicles the second day of a substantial road trip from Florida to Connecticut in a 2023 Tesla Model Y. The reviewer highlights the vehicle's efficiency, consistently achieving 292 Wh/mile over 1,362 miles. A significant portion of the review focuses on the recent V12 software update (2024.26.7), detailing changes to the HVAC interface and the addition of features like YouTube Music and Navigate to Sub-destinations. While generally positive about the car's evolving nature through over-the-air updates, the reviewer expresses dissatisfaction with the Tesla ADAS system's performance in stop-and-go traffic, citing jerky acceleration and deceleration that lacks refinement. The narrative also includes personal anecdotes about hotel choices, dining, and interactions with other EV drivers, particularly a rental Kia EV6 user at a Supercharger. The overall tone is enthusiastic about EV road-tripping, emphasizing the convenience of Superchargers and the car's capabilities, despite the noted refinement issues in traffic.
