Love ours. First EV/Tesla. Amazing. So easy to drive. Best feature is one pedal driving. Almost never need to touch the brake. The car slows and stops via regenerative braking with the motors, charging the batts at the same time. Brake pads last forever.

If interested the Tesla Clermont sales service, they are happy to give you complimentary 1/2 hour drives in any model.

I have been on a few test drives out by the airport and also the new Clermont center. The last test drive had the FSD enabled - very impressive. The one pedal driving was very convenient.

Some people in TV complained that the electric golf carts accelerate too fast.

Why 510hp? I believe Elon Musk would say, because it’s cool. I don’t have a Tesla, waiting for that quick charge, 1000 mile battery.

If I had the finances (and a wider car port or a real garage) I'd definitely consider a plug-in hybrid. I wouldn't get an all-electric vehicle, I don't trust them and wouldn't ever feel safe in one. But one that uses gas and regenerative braking to charge the battery? C'mon that is just such a cool idea.

Am I reading this wrong?
Look the car could have been gas, hydrogen, electric or rubber band.
Once a person gets behind the wheel, they're the one person responsible, if they don't know what they're driving they should be walking.
You have to understand what you're driving and purchase what you need.
I see corvettes in The Villages doing 20 mph and rust covered death traps doing 90 mph.

What would make you 'trust' a hybrid but not trust an all electric vehicle? Isn't a hybrid an all electric vehicle with a small gas engine to charge the batteries?

My 550 BMW is very fast but I also love the Avalon hybrid @ 50 mpg. Not a fan of total electric.

Moronic. I had aTesla 3 and the moment you take your foot off the accelerator, the car comes to a dead stop. You do not even need to touch the brake. Operator error, simple.

About 10 years ago a car came racing across a parking lot and smashed into the wall near where I was standing. It turned out that the car had "hand" controls, and the driver had a medical issue.

She always has the option to buy the less powerful car just as you can with Dodge. She apparently chose not to. This has nothing to do with EVs, just the marketplace and freedom.

Automatic braking does not work very well on grass as there is a much lower coefficient of friction.

It Full Self Driving was enabled, it never would have happened which is kind of the point of FSD. However FSD is still an option that must be paid for and enabled.

Maybe a retesting for a drivers license

Sorry but that’s funny but sorry to say it’s not. Our Nephew in Law is a Dr. & he bought 2 EV’s & said he would never buy another EV he never said why but he drives a gasoline car now. But sorry about your mishap, it’s not funny she could be seriously hurt or killed god bless her & you!
