TESLA'S MASSIVE Q4 & PLAID X / HYUNDAI'S AWESOME MOVE / FORD'S $55K BATTERY / NEW RIVIAN DELAYS

EV Channels Review

The video covers several key developments in the EV market. A significant portion is dedicated to Tesla, discussing a blind spot camera strobe issue, a prototype for improved camera placement, and positive analyst outlooks for Q4, with price targets reaching as high as $1800. The review also touches on a Tesla Model S with 424,000 miles, highlighting its battery degradation and warranty coverage. The Tesla Model X Plaid's interior is reviewed, noting the loss of rope lighting but praising the overall design and rear-seat display. Hyundai's decisive move to close its ICE development division and focus entirely on EVs is highlighted as a major positive step. Conversely, Ford's F-150 Lightning faces criticism for significant dealership markups, potentially doubling the vehicle's price, and a high listed price for a Mustang Mach-E battery pack is seen as a disincentive. Finally, Rivian announces delays for certain R1T configurations, prioritizing the Adventure Package with a large battery, pushing Max Pack variants to 2023.
