TESLAS BEST DEAL IS ALMOST GONE WATCH THIS BEFORE YOU BUY

EV Channels Review

This video delves into Tesla's new promotional lease program for used Model 3 and Model Y vehicles, offering a $0 down payment and monthly payments under $300. The reviewer highlights this as a potential 'steal of the century' for some, providing access to a Tesla at a low entry cost, especially for basic commuting needs. However, significant drawbacks are emphasized, including older hardware (Intel processors, potentially Hardware 2.5), leading to limitations with newer software features and lower-quality dashcam/sentry footage. The audio system is noted as subpar in some configurations, and build quality issues from earlier production years (pre-2022) are a concern, potentially resulting in a harsher ride and more road noise. Battery health, rather than mileage, is stressed as the critical factor for used EVs, with a recommendation to use Recurrent's battery reports. The reviewer concludes that while this lease is a good option for those prioritizing low cost and basic functionality over the latest tech, it's a program to avoid for those seeking the best Tesla experience or anticipating future software advancements.
