EV Channels Review
This video documents the first leg of a road trip from Florida to Connecticut in a 2023 Tesla Model Y Long Range. The reviewer highlights the convenience and reliability of the Tesla Supercharger network, referring to it as the "gold standard." Key observations include the car's comfortable ride, surprisingly spacious interior accommodating luggage and an electric bike, and the effectiveness of Enhanced Autopilot's lane-changing feature. However, the reviewer also notes persistent issues with the side cameras not working at night, a known problem that remains unresolved. The video touches upon the complexities of FSD beta compatibility with hardware versions and a personal error in purchasing FSD for this specific vehicle. Charging experiences were generally positive, with the V3 Superchargers performing well, though a brief test of a CCS charger revealed a more complicated and less reliable experience. The reviewer emphasizes the Model Y's practicality for road trips despite minor annoyances.
